When the FBI Comes Calling…®

Federal criminal law is a very serious and complex body of law. It is distinguishable by the fact that the activity has been criminalized by the US Congress, rather than the individual States. A Federal crime will be investigated by the FBI, DEA, ICE, IRS, or any number of other Federal agencies.

The purpose of this site is to provide information that can help you understand your legal exposure, whether you have been the target of an FBI investigation or charged by a criminal indictment. You will also find statutory provisions specific to the US Federal Criminal Code, how courts have interpreted the statutes, what the government must prove in order to convict, and what you need to know about defending yourself against a federal criminal indictment.
