Chicago White Collar Crime LawyerWhite Collar Crime

DuPage County Criminal Defense Lawyers

Many people do not realize white collar crime investigations begin with simple questions, often delivered by IRS, FBI or other federal agents. The agent may even appear quite friendly, giving no clue that interrogation is under way. Typically an investigation on insider trading, tax evasion, or other white collar crime may drag on for a year or longer before a grand jury is convened. If there is any clue you are being investigated, it is time to contact a lawyer—immediately.

Know Your Rights

FraudYour first few seconds of response in a criminal investigation can be very damaging moments. "Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law," extends well beyond the Miranda warning given during arrest. Even when you believe you are being questioned–just as a witness–it is wise to have an attorney present. All too frequently, witnesses turn into targets during police or federal investigations. An experienced white collar criminal defense lawyer can advise and interact with authorities on your behalf.

When stepping into the criminal justice system, you enter an intimidating maze of laws and procedures. A wrong move results in repercussions. No matter how great your social or communication skills, you are not equipped to play the legal game. The Fifth Amendment right to silence is the safest route to protect your rights, followed by quickly retaining a competent criminal defense lawyer. Even when taking the witness stand, following your lawyer's instructions closely is crucial for the outcome of your case.

- K. R.

'I would like to thank you for handling my recent problem. Not being a person who frequents incidents with the authorities I felt it would be in my best interest to seek your assistance in the matter. I felt a whole lot better knowing I had representation. Not knowing what might develop in such matters can be nerve wracking and I especially didn’t know where this was all going. You certainly made me more comfortable with it. […] The system is what it is and now I am better informed as to how to handle such matters in the future. I have passed both your name and the firm’s name on to friends already, and should I ever need your services again, your number is always with me. Thank you again for all you’ve done for me, and thank your [paralegal], for her patience with me.'
- P. P.

- J. H.

'My thanks to the professionalism and the expeditious handling of my case within a crucial time frame. We had contacted a different Lawyer and had growing concern of the possible outcome of the case. With two days notice, [my attorney from Steven Mevorah & Associates] took time, late in his day, to meet with us. The direction [he] took was different than what the other attorney was taking, & amazingly the outcome could not have been better. Thank you. We feel very fortunate to have come across your firm […].'
- L. W.

'[Steven Mevorah & Associates] was the first law firm I ever had to retain. I left comfortable and cared for. I hope I never need to retain legal service again. But, if I do, I will return to Steven H. Mevorah & Associates.'
- J.H.
