Defending Against Federal Fraud, Embezzlement, and Theft Charges
Facing federal charges for fraud, embezzlement, or theft is a serious matter that can result in devastating consequences—financial penalties, asset forfeiture, and long-term imprisonment. If you’re under investigation or have been charged, you need experienced legal representation immediately.
At the Office of Michael J. Petro Federal Criminal Defense Attorney, we focus on protecting the rights and futures of individuals accused of complex white-collar crimes. Federal fraud, embezzlement, and theft cases often involve lengthy investigations, sophisticated evidence, and aggressive prosecutors. These cases typically arise from allegations such as wire fraud, bank fraud, healthcare fraud, employee embezzlement, or misappropriation of government funds.
What sets us apart is our strategic, detail-oriented approach. Attorney Michael J. Petro thoroughly reviews every element of the government’s case, challenging improper procedures, unlawful searches, and insufficient evidence. We work with forensic experts and financial analysts to scrutinize documents, uncover exculpatory facts, and present compelling defenses tailored to the specific facts of each case.
Remember: being charged does not mean you are guilty. You have constitutional rights, including the presumption of innocence and the right to remain silent. Do not speak to federal agents or prosecutors without legal counsel.
If you or a loved one is facing a federal white-collar investigation, time is critical. Early intervention can impact whether charges are filed, how the case is charged, or even lead to dismissal. Put Attorney Michael J. Petro, a seasoned advocate, in your corner.
