We represent companies and people who are accused of crimes by the government. Our practice is generally limited to white-collar defense work, which includes fraud and conspiracy. For example, Sara won a complete acquittal at trial of a clinical laboratory executive who was accused of Medicare fraud. We have also worked with witnesses who are testifying before a grand jury or simply being interviewed by their company's lawyers during an internal investigation.

A key part of our representation of you will include learning everything we can about your industry. This helps us understand the context of the government's charges and better defend you against them.
