How Our White-Collar Defense Attorneys Can Help
White-collar crime cases present their own set of unique challenges to defend. First and foremost, there is generally a paper trail, in the form of bank records (including yours), tax returns, correspondence, or internally generated company records that can be accessed by law enforcement at any time, assuming the proper procedures are followed. Likewise, e-mails and even your home computer might be searched. For many financial crimes, the statute of limitations can run for three years after the alleged offense was discovered, not simply when it is alleged to have occurred. This means that sometimes years can pass before formal charges are brought by the authorities.
Secondly, unlike many “street crimes” where an arrest might be made almost immediately, white-collar crimes take a long time to investigate. If you are under investigation, at some point it is likely that a detective will contact you in a non-threatening fashion, perhaps even by telephone, to “get your side of the story.” The police are not required to read you your rights in this situation, and anything you say can indeed be used against you in court.
In Colorado, the penalties for a white-collar crime can be steep and severe. Many of these offenses carry substantial prison time for a conviction. There are a number of factors that could potentially impact the severity of the penalties for a white-collar offense, such as:
- The nature of the crime
- Criminal history
- The amount of money involved
- The number of victims
Our white-collar crime lawyers explore all grounds to dismiss charges or negotiate a favorable plea. Many of our clients are professionals, executives, business owners, or military officers whose careers or reputations could be irreparably harmed. The white-collar crime attorneys can intervene and, under the right set of circumstances, avoid a public arrest and possibly avoid formal charges altogether by disproving evidence or proving that you were unaware your actions were criminal, for example.

What is a White-Collar Crime?
A white-collar crime is any non-violent criminal activity (typically in the business or commercial realm) that uses some form of deception to produce financial gain. Examples include fraud, embezzlement, forgery, identity theft, etc.
The investigation and prosecution of white-collar economic crimes is an increasing focus of law enforcement. The district attorney’s office in Colorado Springs has several attorneys and investigators who specialize in white-collar law. The Colorado Springs Police Department and El Paso County Sheriff’s Department also have assigned full-time detectives to these cases.

"The professionalism, guidance, and candor I’ve received from each person in this law firm has been beyond reproach."
I’m not one to have an extensive experience with law firms or lawyers and court in general. However, the professionalism, guidance, and candor I’ve received from each person in this law firm have been beyond reproach. Anytime, I mean, anytime, I’ve had a question about my case and the way forward, I was met with a friendly and constructive conversation about my case. There was never a doubt in my mind, that I made the right choice when I selected this law firm to represent me. Caryn and Stacie have been a wonderful blessing to my life and my legal proceedings. If you are looking for a no-BS law firm that has a significant reputation in the Springs area, I absolutely recommend this one. Even though I hope to not have to deal with this again, fingers crossed and every lucky charm, I’d trust this law firm with my representation to handle the hard stuff and give me ease with court proceedings. Thank you all for what you do and have done for me, my family, and my career. Bless you all.
