Highly Effective Criminal Defense Representation in New York and New Jersey

The reality of white-collar crime cases is that they are very fact-intensive. Investigations can take a considerable amount of time. The analysis of evidence can require a substantial amount of time before charges are ever brought. This makes it crucial that your defense attorney has the skills to not only understand and be able to navigate the facts of your case, but he or she also has to understand how to build a narrative that will be able to protect your rights.
