Call today to speak to former prosecutors who know first-hand how the federal government builds a case and what to do against it.

Avoiding and Fighting Federal Charges Throughout the United States

Receiving a federal subpoena does not necessarily mean that a target will be indicted. Often, a quick and sophisticated response to the subpoena can defeat criminal charges. By contrast, not responding or providing an inadequate response to a grand jury subpoena will almost certainly result in criminal charges.

• Avoided Charges. Our Firm has a history of avoiding criminal charges in federal cases. Our attorneys have turned criminal cases into civil ones, avoided criminal charges in countless investigations, and saved many clients years of incarceration for unjust accusations.
• Obtained Bond. Bond in federal cases is very different from bond in state investigations. We have a close to 100% success rate of obtaining bond for our clients in federal criminal cases.
• Dismissed Charges. Our attorneys have convinced federal prosecutors and federal judges to undo and dismiss already presented indictments. While this is extremely rare, having been able to do so repeatedly may speak for the quality of our attorneys and the level of our skillset.
• Introduced Defenses. Criminal offenses require proof of intent. Further, all criminal offenses know a canon of accepted defenses that render a seemingly illegal conduct entire lawful. We have successfully defended clients in federal investigations by demonstrating that alleged misconduct either did not occur, did not occur intentionally, or did occur but was justified by a recognized defense.
• Federal Offenses Handled. Our attorneys have defended clients against almost every federal offense and criminal conspiracy including but not limited to 18 U.S.C. 1347 healthcare fraud (Medicare fraud, Medicaid fraud, violations of the Anti-Kickback Statute or the Controlled Substances Act, False Claims Act), 18 U.S.C. 1341 mail and 18 U.S.C. 1343 wire fraud, public corruption, bribery, tax fraud, tax evasion, securities fraud, insider trading, Ponzi scheme fraud, mortgage fraud, 21 U.S.C. 846 conspiracy to distribute, 21 U.S.C. 841distribution and possession with intent to distribute, 18 U.S.C. 924 possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking offense, marihuana, Hobbs Act, RICO, bank robbery, kidnapping, and crimes involving computers. If you were charged with a drug crime, let our Dallas federal drug charge defense lawyers take your side.
• Prevailed in Court. Our lawyers have prevailed in countless hearings against government lawyers. Because of our trial reputation, we have appeared in courts across the United States and zealously represented our clients from unjust prosecution. Here is the good news: the government has to convince 12 people beyond a reasonable doubt that you have done something wrong. We, however, only have to convince one person that the government is wrong.

Experience shows that the sooner a potential subject or target of a government investigation calls experienced attorneys for help, the higher the chance to avoid actual criminal charges. If you are in this situation, we urge you not to hesitate. The more time you give the government, the less time you have to start your defense. Call us now for a free and confidential assessment.

Why Do Clients Choose Oberheiden, P.C.?

1. Our Focus on Federal Cases and Federal Trials

Many criminal defense lawyers handle whatever case comes in. We limit ourselves to federal cases. We don’t take DUI or domestic assault cases. The reason for this is the fact that the state and the federal justice system are very different and we believe to be excellent in one system requires an exclusive focus. As a consequence, we appear daily and regularly negotiate with the agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the Office of Inspector General (OIG), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Department of Defense (DOD), the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the U.S. Attorney’s Office (USAO), the Department of Justice (DOJ), among many other federal agencies. Clients benefit from this concentration because we are able to offer them the experiences of decades and thousands of federal cases.

2. Our Results

Our track record is hard to beat. We have avoided criminal charges in federal cases in a large amount of cases for clients from across the United States. We took many of these cases from other lawyers and turned the case around. We have turned targets of federal investigations into witnesses, we have turned criminal cases into civil fines, and we have demonstrated our negotiation skills in countless meetings at the U.S. Attorney’s Office and argued hundreds of cases in federal courtrooms. Combined, we have saved our clients hundreds of years of imprisonment.
