The procedures for the two systems also differ significantly. If you have been charged with a federal crime, you need to contact an attorney who is familiar and experienced with federal law.
An attorney who is familiar with only state law will not be able to provide you with the best possible defense. A criminal attorney who is highly skilled and knowledgeable about federal law will be able to effectively represent your interests.
For over thirty years, Wallin & Klarich has successfully represented clients accused of committing federal crimes. We are experienced and familiar with the criminal justice system and all of its procedures.
If you have been charged with a federal crime, chances are that a Federal agent, like a FBI or DEA agent, arrested you. A United States attorney will prosecute you.
Your case will be heard in a federal district court. If convicted, you will serve your sentence in a federal prison.
Being charged with a federal crime is scary and upsetting. You are worried about what is going to happen to you and your family.
