Chicago, IL criminal defense attorney Michael Leonard discusses the types of federal criminal cases he’s tried. He explains that I have extensive experience handling a wide range of cases on behalf of defendants in federal criminal proceedings. Surprisingly, many of these cases cover offenses that are typically associated with state courts, such as drug crimes, firearm offenses, carjackings, kidnappings, and bank robberies. However, we also handle more significant cases, including murder-for-hire, healthcare fraud, bank fraud, conspiracy, wire fraud, and mail fraud. With my years of practice, I have likely encountered almost every type of federal criminal offense imaginable.
One of our notable areas of expertise is white-collar crime. These cases often revolve around healthcare fraud, bank fraud, mortgage fraud, or other fraudulent schemes that fall within the federal jurisdiction. The involvement of wire fraud elements frequently leads to federal charges in these types of cases.
By leveraging this diverse experience, we are well-equipped to navigate the complexities of federal criminal defense, regardless of the nature of the offense. Our ability to handle both street crimes and white-collar cases allows us to provide comprehensive legal representation to our clients facing federal charges.
