Spokane White Collar Crimes Lawyer

Understanding White Collar Crime Penalties in Washington

A conviction for a white collar crime may result in jail/prison time, heavy fines, restitution, probation, and/or a permanent criminal record that can make future employment difficult. Furthermore, your criminal case may lead to civil charges levied against you by the victims.

Types of White Collar Crimes

White collar crimes are generally nonviolent but due to their use of deceit for financial gain, they can have heavy penalties.These crimes include:

• Mail, wire, credit card, health care, bank, and other forms of fraud
• Identity theft
• Forgery
• Counterfeiting
• Investment scams
• Ponzi schemes
• Insider trading
• Money laundering
• Racketeering
• Embezzlement
• Bribery
• Extortion

These crimes are often complex and subtle which lead to lengthy investigations in which law enforcement agencies build their cases through months or even years of evidence gathering. They typically take place in business or financial settings by professionals, managers, politicians, and entrepreneurs. Fortunately, our principal attorney, Douglas Phelps, is a former police officer and understands how many investigative cases work.
