White Collar & Internet Crimes
Criminal defense against fraud and other charges in Florida
Jerry Berry PA represents clients who have been charged with or are being investigated for white-collar crimes or internet crimes in Naples, Fort Myers, or other surrounding towns and counties of Southwest Florida:
- Bankruptcy fraud
- Credit card fraud
- Tax fraud
- Telemarketing fraud
- Embezzling
- Securities fraud
- Insider trading
- Internet fraud
- Phishing
- Identity theft
These charges may seem like they are not as serious as violent crime, because they do not cause physical harm or property damage to victims. They are theft crimes, though, and Florida prosecutes them very seriously.
It is also likely that it will be difficult for you to obtain gainful employment if you are convicted of white-collar crime and you may lose eligibility for certain professional licenses.
Understand the seriousness of white collar crime in Naples & Fort Myers
Criminal fraud or white-collar charges may be brought against individuals or businesses.
These charges occur on a federal level many times, too. That means there is an entire body of law in addition to Florida state law that applies to your case.
Hiring an attorney who has a history of working with federal law may be an appropriate step in helping you mitigate the effects of your problems.
Similarly, if you are being investigated, you may want an attorney with white-collar or internet crime experience there with you during questioning.
In almost all instances, if the police or another investigator is questioning you, they will be looking for a reason to implicate you in charges and have you arrested.
Contact our firm today if you are charged with white-collar or internet crimes or if you are the subject of an investigation for the same.
