Federal Criminal Defense Attorney in New York City (NYC)

New York Federal Defense Attorneys

Without the risk of sounding too intimidating, facing federal charges is probably one of the most nerve-racking experiences in life, even with one of the best Federal Criminal Defense Attorneys in New York City at your side.

In many cases, by the time the accused learns that he or she is the target of federal criminal investigation, the government has already built a strong case.

Federal government and its criminal investigative agencies have almost unlimited material and human resources to prosecute their cases. A less known fact is that federal prosecutors obtain conviction in more than 95 percent of federal criminal trials!

U.S. sentencing guidelines, although not mandatory anymore, are still important in the sentencing process; the guidelines are harsh and punishments are extremely severe.

Defendants charged with federal crimes face draconian penalties if they are convicted at trial. The federal criminal justice system does not usually provide for parole. In most cases, convicted individuals will serve more than 85 percent of their sentences.

All these issues make defending against federal charges more complex and emotionally draining than defending against state charges. 

If you or your loved one are facing-off with the federal government, you must not and do not have to do it alone. You need a caring and competent criminal defense attorney who will stand up for you against the federal prosecutors.

It is important to realize that in most cases, as a federal defendant, you are essentially fighting for your life. 

What you need is an attorney who will weaken the government’s case by various strategic and procedural methods to gain advantage that can be used later in suppression of evidence - and ultimately improving your chances for a case dismissal, reducing charges, or getting a favorable plea bargain.

Not every case can bargained away or dismissed. When we accept a case, we are prepared to take it all the way to trial if necessary.

Your chances of a successful outcome of your case depends on how soon your attorney will get involved.

Ideally, you should be represented as soon as you discover that you are under investigation - or as soon as possible after your arrest.
