Understanding Federal Criminal Investigations & Charges

Federal crimes are investigated and prosecuted by federal agencies, which can vary with the type of crime. Your case may be handled by the FBI, IRS, Secret Service, or Medicaid fraud control units. Charges often only arise after a lengthy investigation, so if you are under investigation by a federal agency and may be charged with a crime, it is better to seek legal advice as early in the process as possible.

Charges prosecuted on the federal level are often more complex, and the procedures are not exactly the same in state and federal court. If you are facing criminal charges, it is essential to hire an attorney with extensive experience and knowledge in this specific area of the law. Our firm is dedicated entirely to criminal law, which is the only type of law Mr. Truslow practices.

Federal charges are generally more serious than many cases prosecuted in state courts. This could mean that you are facing serious criminal penalties if you are convicted. The exact sentence that you may receive depends on the crime and other factors. However, prison sentences, jail sentences, and fines are often larger when a defendant is convicted in federal court.
