Federal Crimes Lawyer in Madison County, MS
Being investigated or charged with a crime at the federal level is a frightening and daunting prospect. Federal law enforcement agencies such as the FBI, the ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives), the DEA, and others have extensive authority, enormous governmental resources, and aggressive investigators and prosecutors. They bring highly-skilled and formidable powers and determination into tracking down, investigating, and prosecuting anyone suspected of breaking federal law, whether it is through a nonviolent white collar crime or a violent crime such as armed bank robbery.
In response to a federal investigation or charges, you will need an equally strong and tenacious defender who is licensed to practice in federal court and who has experience in doing so. At Oberhousen Law Firm, PLLC, you can work with a Madison County federal crimes attorney who fits the bill. Our attorney is backed by 18 years of practice investigating charges, negotiating with prosecutors, and defending clients in federal court.

Why You Need a Madison County Federal Crimes Attorney
Federal crimes may involve task forces that work with many federal law enforcement and regulatory agencies. They can involve lengthy investigations occurring over months or even years. These investigations can include agencies such as the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission), the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, the IRS, U.S. Attorney Offices, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, and more.
When charged at the federal level, you will face federal sentencing guidelines that generally involve harsher terms than state crimes. These guidelines are based on a points system. The greater the number of points assigned to your crime, the longer your prison sentence will be. Each offense under the guidelines comes with a base number of points which can then be increased or decreased according to enhancements or reductions as supported by the facts and circumstances of your case.
Aside from prison and hefty fines, federal penalties can also include forfeiture of assets and lengthy probation periods.
Being charged with a crime at the federal level is a serious matter. You will need a federal defense lawyer who knows how to navigate the system and work to protect your rights and pursue your best interests. When facing a federal investigation, it is best not to discuss your case with anyone, consent to any search or seizure without a warrant, answer questions by investigators without an attorney, or waive any of your constitutional rights. Consult with our attorney as soon as possible. We are here to give you the support and advocacy you need and deserve in this critical legal situation.
