Answers for Those Facing White Collar Allegations

  • What is considered a white collar crime?

    White collar crimes are typically non-violent offenses involving fraud, deception, or abuse of trust for financial gain. These can be prosecuted at the state or federal level depending on scope and agencies involved.

  • Do I need a criminal attorney for embezzlement or fraud?

    Absolutely. These charges carry serious consequences—prison time, fines, restitution, and irreversible damage to your professional life. An experienced defense attorney is essential.

  • What happens if I’m under investigation but haven’t been charged yet?

    You still have the right to legal counsel. In fact, early representation can help avoid indictment or mitigate consequences. Never speak to investigators without a lawyer present.

  • Are white collar crimes always federal?

    Not always. Many are prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney's Office, especially if they involve interstate commerce or federal agencies. Others are handled in New York state court. Texido Law handles both.

  • What’s the penalty for wire fraud?

    Federal wire fraud can carry up to 20 years in prison—or more if it affects financial institutions or involves large-scale schemes. The loss amount and number of victims affect sentencing.
