Our Firm
When Oberheiden P.C. first began taking clients in the blockchain and cryptocurrency industries, we quickly realized that there was a need for these legal services across the country. Many bitcoin miners and cryptocurrency users were getting blindsided by regulations that they did not know existed and were getting into serious legal trouble. In some cases, they were even facing criminal allegations.
Since then, the blockchain team at Oberheiden P.C. has helped numerous cryptocurrency companies and individuals defend against allegations of wrongdoing and navigate the complicated and ever-changing regulatory environment surrounding the industry. While our main law office is located in Dallas, Texas, we have helped blockchain companies across the country, from Miami to Seattle.
The Blockchain Team at Oberheiden P.C.
In order to provide better legal advice and counsel to blockchain-dependent companies, we at Oberheiden P.C. have created a legal team to focus exclusively on these clients and have filled it with cryptocurrency thought leaders and blockchain scholars. The team’s leader, Alina Veneziano, is the co-author of one of the leading books on blockchain and cryptocurrencies, The Law of Tomorrow: Bitcoin, Tokens, Blockchain. She, as well as other lawyers on the blockchain team, have extensive experience representing clients in all aspects of cryptocurrency and blockchain law, as well as experience in non-crypto securities.
Because this team focuses on blockchain-related legal issues, they have come face-to-face with many of the most pressing problems that companies face in this field, as well as many of the most overlooked concerns that can become serious issues later on, if not handled well in the present.
Blockchain Issues That We Handle
Just a few of the regulatory issues that we have helped blockchain companies sort out have been related to:
- Initial coin offerings, or ICOs
- Security token offerings, or STOs
- Blockchain taxes
- Bitcoin mining
- Digital assets law
- Smart contracts
- Tokenization
- Distributed ledger technology, or DLT
- Blockchain regulatory compliance
- Corporate compliance
But these are only the out-of-court issues that we have handled on behalf of our blockchain and crypto clients. We have also worked to resolve and defend against serious civil and even criminal allegations, including for cryptocurrency fraud and securities litigation. These allegations carry significant penalties if they are not vigorously combatted from the very beginning. In some cases, they can lead to over a decade in federal prison for a conviction on a single count or charge. Worse, they are prosecuted or pursued by some of the biggest and most powerful law enforcement agencies in the world, like the:
- Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)
- Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
- U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ)
- Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
- Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC)
With so much firepower facing you and your blockchain firm, you need the best defensive team you can muster on your side. Oberheiden P.C. can help.
Oberheiden P.C.: A National Blockchain Firm That Puts Your Company First
Oberheiden P.C. is a national law firm that focuses its practice on blockchain problems. That means that the experienced and highly skilled attorneys and investigators in our network are available wherever you need them.
But that is not all. Our approach to blockchain compliance and defense is a unique one. We are not satisfied with providing “cookie-cutter” legal representation that would further the interests of the “average” blockchain company. You deserve more when you hire our firm. Whether we are helping you come into compliance with federal, state, or local regulations that govern blockchain technologies or beating civil or criminal allegations of wrongdoing, we aim to provide the legal assistance and guidance that your company needs – not that blockchain companies generally need.
We realize that, especially in such a novel and unsettled field as the blockchain industry, different organizations are going to have different ways of doing business. The legal advice that helped one crypto company may not help yours because your interests and goals are different.
That is why, when you call Oberheiden P.C., you deal directly with the senior lawyer from our blockchain team that is on your case, rather than a secretary, paralegal, or junior associate. We want to make sure that we understand your blockchain or crypto company before we try to solve its problems in ways that may run against your interests down the road.
