What are the Penalties Associated with White Collar Crimes?
As former prosecutors, we are very familiar with how these types of cases will be handled by the prosecution, and can prepare a strong and compelling defense case accordingly. We work hard to make sure our clients’ charges do not escalate into a conviction, as the penalties for these offenses are severe. Because the majority of white collar crimes are consider felony offenses, the penalties typically involve:
- No less than 5 years in prison
- No less than $5,000 in fines
- Probation/Parole
- Community Service
- Restitution
- A mark on your permanent record
What will perhaps be even more damaging is the toll a white collar crimes conviction will take on your reputation.

Furthermore, you may experience a sense of ostracism or discrimination from your friends, neighbors, and loved ones as well.
