White collar and investigations work generally involves non-violent, financially or professionally related allegations, such as fraud, embezzlement, bribery, tax matters, money laundering, securities-related conduct, and false statements. It also includes responding to government inquiries, subpoenas, and search warrants, as well as conducting internal reviews when a company or institution learns of possible misconduct. Matters may be handled by local, state, or federal authorities, and they can begin as a civil or regulatory inquiry before becoming a criminal one.
Law firms of many sizes list this practice area, as do solo practitioners, boutique criminal defense firms, and the legal departments of businesses and nonprofits. Some attorneys formerly worked as prosecutors or regulators, though that background alone does not indicate suitability. When choosing counsel, ask about their experience with matters similar to yours and which agencies or courts they have dealt with. You can also confirm an attorney's registration status through the New York Attorney Search before you hire them.
