White Collar Crime Defense in Wilmington, North Carolina

Areas of Practice

White Collar
Regulatory
Grand Jury Investigations
Internal Investigations

Our firm has extensive experience representing individuals and businesses under government scrutiny. Particularly in white collar matters, individuals may receive letters from the government stating that they are targets of an investigation prior to the filing of any criminal charges. Early representation is essential. Deciding when to cooperate and when to fight depends on a number of factors that must be carefully considered. Limiting the scope of an investigation can sometimes save valuable time, resources, and exposure.

All too often individuals are made the proverbial “scapegoat” of wider corporate misconduct. Sometimes honest business mistakes are twisted into regulatory and criminal accusations. Disgruntled employees make false accusations that can result in unfair government scrutiny.

We have recently represented bank executives, an elected official under investigation by the state attorney general, an accounting firm, principals in two medical practices, three individuals in various stages of investigation by the Internal Revenue Service, and a closely held corporation accused of immigration and environmental violations. In each of these cases early representation proved crucial.
