IF YOU HAVE BEEN ACCUSED OF:

Federal Crimes

Being investigated or charged with a felony by a federal agency is a frightening and often confusing situation. Following the September 11 attacks, the United States Federal Government has a number of powerful investigative tools and a myriad of resources that can be used to create a case against you, such as interception of calls, videotapes, espionage, etc.

FEDERAL CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY

The United States Federal Government often organizes federal, state and local law enforcement officials to form a powerful prosecution team. In short, federal prosecutors have powerful tools to bring criminal charges against you and will not hesitate to do so.

Write the details of your legal issue on the form at the bottom right and our best defense experts will review your case.

Federal crimes that cross state lines, involve federal agencies such as the post office, banks insured by the federal government, the SEC and HUD, or involve the Internet. The most common cases prosecuted at the federal level include drug trafficking, bank robbery and internet pornography.

FEDERAL CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY AND FEDERAL CRIME CHARGES

There are several factors that make federal criminal defense so daunting:

– A federal sentence is severe and there is no probation.

– The Federal Criminal Code does not lend itself to the negotiation of the sentence.

– Federal prosecutors and law enforcement officials generally have resources and experience far greater than their state counterparts.

If you find yourself facing potential federal crime charges be careful! Federal agents have probably already gathered enough evidence against you. It may take months or even years to prepare a case. When you are being charged, they already carry an advantage over you. This makes it extremely important that you start your defense immediately.

LIBERTY BELL LAW IS THE BEST FEDERAL CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEYS

First, you need a criminal defense lawyer with extensive experience in the criminal and federal defense system.

Secondly, you need a team of defense attorneys and not just one. Your federal criminal defense attorney must be skillful, quick and receptive. Federal agents almost always have an advantage against you in the case preparation stage, so your team needs to catch up quickly to level the playing field.

The best defense depends on clever strategy. Your criminal defense team must develop solid strategies to counter the power of federal agents. Federal agents have access to sophisticated investigative tools such as interception of calls, videotapes, espionage and informants to get evidence to build their case. With the right strategy and aggressive approach, a competent federal criminal defense attorney can neutralize any negative evidence the government presents.

Federal cases often involve political or other considerations that can be used in your favor to resolve the matter without a trial. However, if your federal case goes to trial, it is critical to have expert trial lawyers such as LibertyBell Law Group, who are ready to aggressively defend you. Due to severe sentencing guidelines in a federal district court, losing is not an option. You only have one opportunity to choose the right defense lawyer to defend you.

 Internet crime  is a broad term that encompasses hacking, electronic theft, internet-terrorism, or any instance in which a criminal gains unauthorized access to a computer system for the purposes of stealing, corrupting, or altering data. As computers are often located across state borders, internet crime is prosecuted at the federal level.

 Immigrants  who have been accused of federal crimes require a vigorous criminal defense. The United States federal government has significant authority to deport and deny immigrants entry into the United States, even if the immigrant hasn’t been convicted of a crime. Certain federal crimes make an immigrant non-admissible, while other types of federal crimes make an immigrant deportable.

 Money laundering  refers to the transfer or investment of illegally obtained funds in an attempt to mask the source of those funds and make them appear legitimate. Funds which were obtained through drug or weapons trafficking , human trafficking, wire fraud, theft, or other criminal activities can be considered laundered. An indictment of money laundering in the United States typically leads to an indictment of other criminal charges.

 Racketeering  , also known as RICO after the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, refers to a pattern of criminal offenses made by a group with a common purpose or any criminal course of conduct made by individuals who make up an enterprise.

 Tax-related federal crimes in the United States can be a complicated one. Failure to file taxes honestly and in a timely manner is described as tax fraud and tax evasion. Tax fraud is broadly defined as a gross violation of tax laws, but more simply it can mean misrepresenting yourself when filing your taxes. It is one of the most common offenses in the white-collar crime category. Tax evasion , on the other hand, is an even more serious offense in the eyes of the law.  Tax evasion is deliberately altering or falsifying information when filing taxes.

 Weapons trafficking  is the movement or transfer of firearms, guns, weapons, parts, or ammunition from a legal to illegal market. Weapons trafficking includes straw purchases or the transfer of a firearm from a legal owner to a possessor either not licensed to own it or have it during a crime or conspiracy to commit a crime.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY:

Gina was like a lioness protecting her cub.

    

I hired Gina and her team for my son who was facing 10 years for something they said he did when he was 17 years old. Gina was like a lioness protecting her cub. She did not stop. She fought hard and was able to defend the charges. We are so grateful to her and her team. They gave us our son. He recovered his life!

– L. W.
Best defense lawyers in the country.

    

I hired this law firm in 2014 for my son who was facing 16 years in prison for a felony robbery. Lina Helou answered all our questions. I was extremely distraught regarding what my son was facing but Lina comforted me and told me that it would be okay. And thank goodness LibertyBell saved my son from going to jail and they were able to obtain only 3 years of probation. I could not have hired a better law firm for my son and if you want the best defense call LibertyBell Law Group. Thank God for this great group of lawyers.

– V. J.
A great team of lawyers.

    

I do not have enough words to describe how incredible the experience with this firm was. They work very hard to make sure you have winning results. I could not have asked for better service from the moment I called, until my case was over. I was glad I made the right choice. Thank you again LibertyBell Law Group!

She took her time to review all of my evidence and proved my innocence.

    

My father had found this group through his company and coworkers. I was assigned Gina Tennen and I cannot explain in just a review on how gratefull I am to be working with her. My case was an accusation of unlawful sex. This had looked extremely bad on my part since I was in a fraternity and she was in a sorority. During these times with Greek life, there are too many bad stigmas surrounding these organizations. Gina had believed in me and knew that I was innocent and that these accusations just were not true. She took her time to review all of my evidence and proved my innocence. I totally recommend this law group because they are willing to put in the work to help your situation.

– C. D.
Gina always kept me fully aware of how the case was proceeding.

    

When I first heard I was under a criminal investigation, I initially thought I would try and resolve this in the best way possible, without legal representation, as we were all interested in a "just" outcome. I quickly discovered that was not the case and contacted Gina at LibertyBell. She clearly described the expectations and the choices available to me. She was always available to me, and when I called, if she couldn't talk with me at that time, she would quickly get back to me. Gina always kept me fully aware of how the case was proceeding. Her fee's were stipulated up front, as well as what those fees covered and what they did not.

– S. B.
Attorney Gina Tennen was on point from day one.

    

Attorney Gina Tennen was on point from day one putting pressure on the sherrif's office to get things handled. With Child molestation accusatinos being thrown around Gina and Attorney Castro were great at keeping the pressure on and had no charges filled. The DCFS indications were appealed and we won with flying colors. Great service, great work, and will use again for all legal matters.

Will Recommend, Total Experience, Awesome Team

    

Being involved in legal matters can be scary. When researching who to put my trust in, I came across Liberty and I am glad that I did. From the first time that I met with Gina and her team she made me feel comfortable and listened to all that I had to say. She assured me that her team would be on it and that they would do everything that they could! A little while in, Alan took over my case. When meeting with him you can tell that this is his passion and I immediately knew he was going to do everything in his power to make the outcome right! He was relentless and worked day and night working on the case. He kept in constant communication with me and truly cared not only about me but about my family as well. I am forever grateful for the support that this whole team has given me and would definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for truly the best lawyers!
