Federal Crimes Defense Attorney
There are certain crimes that fall under the jurisdiction of the state of New York, and others that are handled by the federal government. While this may not seem like much more of a difference than where the trial will be located, there are distinct differences in the procedures, norms and most daunting for defendants, the conviction rates in federal criminal court.
Statistics show that more than 90% of federal criminal defendants are convicted at trial, and that's because the federal government is relentless in nature, has nearly limitless resources and is meticulous in its investigation before issuing an indictment against a defendant. Basically, receiving a federal indictment is a serious problem.
When this happens, you need to take immediate steps to retain the services of an experienced and skilled criminal defense attorney.

The federal government has been given additional tools to investigate suspected criminals, and the biggest impetus for these additional capabilities is 9/11. In response to 9/11, Congress passed several pieces of sweeping legislation, including such statutes as the Patriot Act, and the fundamental common denominator for most of these statutes is that the alleged criminal simply does not enjoy the same rights to privacy and reasonable search and seizure requirements as they did in years past.
