White-collar crime is also known as corporate crime refers to financially motivated crime or nonviolent crime such as tax evasion, bribery, embezzlement, money laundering, and insurance fraud, committed by corporations or government personals.
The term white-collar crime was first defined by American Sociologist Edwin Sutherland in 1939 as a crime committed by a person of respectability and high social status in the course of their occupation. The term challenged the prejudice against the rich that they can do no wrong.
Many white-collar crime cases are prosecuted by the government so you need a lawyer who is an expert on Federal laws, feels comfortable being in Federal court because this is another serious crime that could affect your entire life. Being stripped from freedom by being sentenced to jail is bad enough but being labelled as a white-collar criminal, no company would hire you. No one can do the job better than white-collar crime lawyers.
There’s a lot of pressure and the stake is high, so be sure to pick the right white collar crime lawyer who has a lot of experience who knows his or her way around.
