Phoenix, Arizona, White Collar Crime Defense Lawyer
White collar crimes such as mail fraud, embezzlement and identity theft may have several layers of complexities that county prosecutors must get their arms around before filing charges. A felony white collar crime fraud case can involve deceptive financial practices that include embezzlement, money laundering, tax evasion and illegal accounting practices. With so many layers of criminal offenses and no single victim who has suffered harm, it is no wonder that so many prosecutors get it wrong.

If you are under investigation for fraud, embezzlement or any other white collar crime in Arizona, your criminal defense attorney will need the skills, experience and professional resources to handle the most complex cases involving financial data. Under the direction of experienced trial lawyer Beresky & Fish, we work with independent forensic accounting professionals, financial specialists and other experts to attack the prosecutor's evidence and case against you. At the Law Offices of Beresky & Fish, P.C. , our primary objective is always to work toward a dismissal or reduction of charges to a non-felony offense, if an acquittal isn't likely.
It is important to remember that prosecutors and investigators may have been gathering evidence against you for several weeks or months before filing charges. They already have a head start, but much of the evidence may have been gathered in violation of your Fourth Amendment rights prohibiting illegal search and seizure and requiring probable cause. We will start working immediately seeking to suppress illegal evidence and use every legal measure to aggressively fight to protect your rights and your future.

If you are under investigation
If you have been arrested and questioned about an ongoing investigation for fraud or any other white collar crime, the police have only 72 hours to charge you or they must release you. If you are not charged, it is likely that the investigation will continue and you may be charged at a later date. It is important to hire experienced pre-charge representation right away. We can help you understand the nature of the investigation, what legal options you may have in the event you are charged, and how your decision may affect the outcome of your case.
