White Collar Crimes

White Collar Crime Attorneys in Sacramento County

Roseville White Collar Crime Defense Lawyers

White-collar crimes refer to illegal, nonviolent acts committed for financial gain, typically by employees in a business or financial work environment. The term “white collar” refers to the white shirt collars traditionally worn by employees in these corporate settings.

White-collar crimes can be prosecuted at the state or federal level and cases are often drawn out and complicated. Additionally, depending on the circumstances of your case and the alleged amount that was stolen, you may face either misdemeanor or felony charges.

Because of the complex nature of white-collar crimes, it is important to work with a Sacramento County white-collar crime defense lawyer with experience in these complex criminal cases.

If you are convicted of a white-collar crime at the federal level, the penalties may include one or more of the following:

  • A federal prison sentence
  • Community confinement
  • Fines, forfeitures and/or restitution

If you are convicted of a white-collar crime on the state level, the penalty in California is a minimum of one year in state prison for a felony, and less than a year for a misdemeanor. The court may also levy a fine ranging from $1,000 to over $10,000 depending on the severity of the crime.
