Facing Serious Allegations Requires Serious Representation
Federal charges involving child sexual abuse material (CSAM) are among the most serious crimes prosecuted in the United States. These cases often involve allegations of possession, distribution, or production of illegal content and carry severe mandatory minimum sentences, including potential decades in federal prison and mandatory registration as a sex offender. The stigma alone can destroy careers, families, and reputations—long before a trial even begins.
If you are facing these types of allegations, you need more than general legal advice—you need a seasoned federal criminal defense attorney with the knowledge, experience, and courage to mount an aggressive, strategic defense. That’s where Attorney Michael J. Petro comes in.
Experience, Strategy, and Discretion Matter
Attorney Petro has over 30 years of experience defending clients in federal court. He understands the complex digital forensics involved in CSAM cases and regularly works with forensic experts and investigators to challenge the government’s narrative. Whether it’s questioning the validity of a search warrant, challenging the method of evidence collection, or uncovering mistaken identity in peer-to-peer networks, every defense is tailored to the facts of the case.
Federal CSAM charges often hinge on questions of intent, knowledge, and lawful procedure. If law enforcement violated your Fourth Amendment rights or exceeded the scope of a search warrant, Attorney Petro will aggressively seek to suppress the evidence.
Don’t Wait—Contact a Federal Criminal Defense Attorney Immediately
Many defendants make critical mistakes early in their case, often by speaking to federal agents without legal counsel. If you are under investigation or have already been charged, do not delay. Your freedom and your future are at stake.
