White Collar Crimes

White collar crime impacts the economy by increasing the cost of doing business and raising prices for the consumer. White collar crime decreases the efficiency of doing business and has a negative impact on the bottom line of a company. In some extreme cases (Enron) white collar crime can bankrupt companies and / or have a major impact on the stock market. When white collar crimes are caught, new regulation can restrict business and lower efficiency even more.

Federal Defense

35 Years of Success

A grand jury indictment returned in the U.S. District Court creates a large number of problems that are very different from those that people face in the state criminal justice system. The laws are different, the courts are different, the procedures are different, the sentencing is different and the prisons are different. With 35 years of success in federal court, I have the skills, knowledge & expertise to defend you in any federal charge.

Grand Jury Indictments

Grand Jury Investigation Defense Attorneys

The principal purpose of grand juries is to review the evidence gathered by the Government to determine whether sufficient evidence exists for the case to move forward. Grand jury proceedings are confidential. As a San Antonio federal defense lawyer, I have represented numerous businesses, business professionals, doctors and lawyers who were either targets or subjects of grand jury investigations. In these circumstances, avoiding formal criminal charges and maintaining confidentiality are my top priorities. Since even an acquittal, after a public trial, cannot restore an individual's or business' reputation and standing within a community you need a San Antonio lawyer with experience working high profile cases & winning. read more

Bankruptcy Fraud

Proactive Fraud Defense

Bankruptcy is an opportunity for debtors to have a "fresh start". Bankruptcy laws are extremely complex and mistakes in filing of bankruptcy petitions are often made. While some omissions and mistakes are overlooked, willful misrepresentation of material facts on a bankruptcy petition is likely to result in a violation of one or more of federal statutes and criminal prosecution. Our economy is in a recession & all over Texas federal bankruptcy protections are being used to protect personal assets, With the amount of bankruptcy filings breaking all time highs, there is going to be some honest mistakes made or in some situations deliberately made. Either way, as your San Antonio criminal attorney, over my 35 years of successful criminal defense I have acquired the skills & expertise to vigorously defend you from bankruptcy fraud allegations.

Bribery & Public Corruption

Few stories are more appetizing to the media

One of the risks every government official or employee faces is the potential to be accused of violating the public's trust.

My experience is that a bribery case or public corruption charges first start with a grand jury investigation, with that said you need a strong, experienced San Antonio attorney ready to fight for you! I'm that attorney. Learn More

Money Laundering

Immediate action to protect your assets

The U.S. money laundering statute, 18 U.S. C. § 1956, is broad, and was intended to be broad for two very specific reasons. Number one, it allows the government to seize any assets or property they can connect, in a financial way, to the specified criminal activity an individual or business is accused of. Number two, in seizing assets before trial, the government can effectively prevent a defendant from being able to afford the best defense they possibly can. Learn More

Insider Trading Defense

In response to public outcry over fraud and scandals that have consumed Wall street, like those involving Marc Cuban or companies such as Enron — the federal government has taken a hard-line stance on insider trading.

As an insider trading defense attorney, I deliver experienced, independent legal counsel to individuals accused of insider trading. My practice is devoted to white collar criminal defense.

Securities Fraud

Because I am a sole practitioner, with vast resources, experience & the knowledge to defend securities fraud in San Antonio, my clients can feel confident that I will personally do the work of preparing and presenting their defense as opposed to a young inexperienced associate. There will be no hidden conflicts of interest or agendas at work. This is especially important to individuals charged in connection with larger corporate highly publicized scandals as they can be made scapegoats if not careful. I am also keenly aware of the fact that allegations of securities fraud are highly publicized, publicity usually garners attention that can be as damaging as an actual conviction. I have significant experience representing clients in the media when news coverage makes it necessary. However, I understand that the best defense against white collar crimes being tried in the media is thorough a proactive & aggressive legal defense that prevents a grand jury indictment from ever being filed..
