White Collar Criminal Defense

Legal defense for non-violent financial crimes including fraud, embezzlement, insider trading, and identity theft. Our North Miami-based criminal justice attorney represents professionals, executives, and individuals facing serious white collar allegations.

White collar criminal charges may not involve physical violence, but the consequences can be equally devastating. Financial crimes often trigger federal investigations, steep fines, mandatory restitution, and lengthy prison sentences. Moreover, they can destroy reputations and careers. At Reynoso Erickson Trial Law, PA, we understand how complex and sensitive these cases are. We deliver smart, strategic, and discreet representation for individuals facing fraud, embezzlement, tax violations, and more. Whether you’re under investigation or already indicted, our North Miami legal team helps you navigate the system while protecting your rights, freedom, and professional standing.

Types of White Collar Charges We Defend

We represent clients in a broad range of white collar criminal matters, including:

• Wire fraud, mail fraud, and bank fraud
• Healthcare fraud, including Medicare and Medicaid billing
• Tax fraud and evasion
• Bribery, corruption, and public official misconduct
• Embezzlement and misappropriation of funds
• Identity theft and credit card fraud
• Computer crimes and data theft
• Insider trading and securities violations

Each case requires detailed knowledge of state and federal regulations, accounting principles, and prosecutorial strategies. We work with financial experts, forensic analysts, and industry professionals to challenge the government’s assumptions and build a comprehensive defense.

Government Investigations and Grand Jury Proceedings

In many white collar cases, prosecution begins long before formal charges are filed. If you’ve received a subpoena, target letter, or audit request, now is the time to act. Early intervention can influence how your case unfolds. We help clients:

• Respond to subpoenas and avoid self-incrimination
• Navigate SEC, IRS, DOJ, or FBI inquiries
• Assess the risks of cooperation or silence
• Negotiate immunity or proffer agreements where appropriate

We understand that investigations often affect not just individuals, but businesses, boards, and entire teams. Our legal strategies are tailored to minimize exposure while protecting our client’s interests and livelihood.

Building a Strategic, Evidence-Driven Defense

White collar cases typically revolve around documents, transactions, emails, and data—not eyewitness testimony or physical evidence. This allows us to conduct our own investigation using expert witnesses, financial auditors, and internal records. Our defense may include:

• Challenging the intent or knowledge element of the alleged offense
• Demonstrating legitimate business practices
• Highlighting government overreach or evidentiary gaps
• Reconstructing financial events to support alternative explanations

We maintain confidentiality throughout the case, limiting reputational damage and mitigating fallout with employers or licensing boards.

Sentencing Mitigation and Plea Negotiations

Even when conviction is unavoidable, the outcome can vary dramatically depending on legal advocacy. We present powerful mitigation narratives that highlight:

• Lack of prior criminal record
• Community involvement and character references
• Voluntary restitution or repayment efforts
• Family responsibilities and professional hardship

We also challenge improper guideline enhancements and argue for probation, fines, or supervised release instead of incarceration. Our experience negotiating with U.S. attorneys and state prosecutors allows us to protect our clients from unnecessary punishment while encouraging rehabilitation and second chances.
