Successful & Aggressive New York Money Laundering Lawyer
If you’re suspected of conducting transactions that hide the source of money gained through criminal activity, federal authorities may charge you with money laundering. Most commonly, this is filed as an additional charge in a prosecution arising primarily from alleged drug trafficking or some type of business fraud. If you’re facing money laundering, financial transaction structuring or other federal felony charges in New York, contact us for experienced counsel and representation.
Money Laundering-An Extremely Serious Charge, Often Accompanied by Several Others
Your federal indictment may cite a wide range of charges and counts to strengthen the chance of obtaining a conviction on at least one — and to apply additional pressure on you to plead guilty. Even on its own, however, money laundering is a serious federal felony with a maximum sentence including fines up to $500,000 and 20 years in prison. At the Law Office of Mark J. Sacco, we’ve taken federal cases to trial — and won. Our experience extends from obtaining acquittals in murder trials to positive outcomes in complex conspiracy and enterprise corruption cases. We’re well equipped to handle your defense in a major drug or white collar crime case, whether negotiation for reduced consequences is the best path or taking your case all the way to jury trial is the only way to protect your interests.
An Experienced Lawyer for Business People Facing Indictment
Once applied almost exclusively in organized crime investigations, money laundering charges are now also commonly filed in cases of alleged fraudulent business accounting. In today’s “anti-terror” era, the U.S. Treasury Department and other agencies have advanced their methods of tracking and investigating suspicious financial transactions. This leads to a growing threat of prosecution for business people and professionals throughout the United States.
