White collar crime is taken very seriously by the federal government and by the federal prosecutors whose job it is to convict the accused. Such cases not only make or break the career of a young federal prosecutors — they also can serve as fuel for the political ambitions of individuals up and down the chain of command. These prosecutors use their immense power to take your liberty and property away.

At The Law Offices of Howard J. Weintraub, P.C., we offer clients from Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, South Carolina, and other parts of the country more than 32 years of federal trial experience and an insider's knowledge of how federal prosecutors and the federal court system deal with white collar crimes. Mr. Weintraub cut his teeth as a lawyer prosecuting a wide range of white collar criminal charges, including:

  • Bank fraud
  • Securities fraud
  • Mail and wire fraud
  • Embezzlement/employee theft
  • Insurance fraud
  • Tax fraud
  • Money laundering

The civil penalties defendants face upon conviction can be just as overwhelming as the criminal ones. In addition to fines and restitution that can add up to hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars alone — prosecutors often will try to seize personal property and assets arguing that they were "fruits" of the alleged criminal activities. The government has broad power to do this. To fight it effectively, you need a lawyer who knows how to stop them. Mr. Weintraub can, and has, on numerous occasions stopped the government.

Our experience handling federal criminal appeals, particularly in the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals and the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals, is another invaluable asset this firm has to offer.
