Criminal investigations begin with police officers, government or law enforcement agents going out into the community to follow up on reports of criminal or suspicious activity. Often our efforts will consist of conducting our own investigation of the alleged wrongdoing and making written or oral presentations to the appropriate agency. We routinely represent victims and witnesses to ensure their rights are protected and their interests are served.

In instances where an individual or a business is a victim of a crime and desirous of initiating a criminal prosecution of the alleged wrongdoer, we often are retained to reach out to the appropriate local, state or federal law enforcement agency to assist in getting the offender prosecuted. Often, our efforts will consist of conducting our own investigation of the alleged wrongdoing, and making a written or oral presentation to the police, federal law enforcement agency, city attorney’s office, district attorney’s office or U.S. attorney’s office. We have represented clients who have been victims of commercial bribery, internal theft, extortion, embezzlement, computer hacking and trade secret theft.
