Due to the many financial categories and platforms, there are many laws governing the financial sector. Anyone in this field can find themselves in a court case involving financial crime. To be on the safer side, it's important to have a professional Chicago financial crimes attorney.
According to the law firm, "Every day, the news broadcasts a story of an individual charged with what are called “White-collar crimes”. These crimes capture the imagination of the public because they involve large sums of money, lavish lifestyles and the abuse of power and trust by respected people. White collar crimes can be committed by individual actors or by entire businesses. The crimes of Enron, Jeffrey Skilling, Martha Stewart, John and Timothy Rigas, Dennis Kozlowski and Jack Abrahmoff are well known but state and federal prosecutors are charging individuals and companies with a host of financial crimes every day under the public radar. What appears to be a series of small thefts can add up to millions of dollars over the course of years and you could be facing years in prison and millions of dollars in fines. If you have been charged with a white-collar crime, you must seek representation that is familiar with financial crimes and accounting practices."
The law firm continues on financial crimes, "If you are charged with a federal white-collar crime you will be up against the federal government. They are an adversary with vast resources, talented agents and attorneys and a team of analysts pouring over your financial records. By the time you are charged in federal court, the US Attorney has been examining your financial practices, talking to your colleagues and constructing a court case against you for months, if not years.In addition to penalties including probation and prison, sentences handed down by courts oftentimes include restitution which requires a person to pay back the money taken, parole or mandatory supervised release, the forfeiture of properties, holding and assets and community service. Attorney Purav Bhatt has been defending individuals accused of financial crimes in state and federal courts for over a decade. Over that time, he has built a team of investigators, financial analysts and attorneys that have previously worked for the IRS, Department of Treasury and US Attorney’s Office."
