Federal Criminal Defense

If you become “a target” of a federal criminal investigation, law enforcement authorities have already concluded that you have in the past or are currently committing a criminal offense.

Consequently, when you or someone you may have had a close relationship with, first learns that a federal criminal investigation had been initiated and its focus may involve you, your business dealings, your practices and/or associations, you should contact an experienced federal criminal defense attorney and schedule a confidential consultation as soon as possible.

During this initial consultation, as an experienced federal criminal defense attorney I will help you understand the federal criminal investigative and charging process you are facing.

I will also explain your rights if you have been served a grand jury subpoena either as a material witness or a potential subject, or if you have received a “target letter”.

I will also explain the difference between a criminal complaint, indictment and criminal information.

If you have already been formally charged by criminal complaint or indictment, I will review the charges filed and any additional investigation notices you have received, such as, the copy of the search warrant, the inventory of items seized and any court orders issued.

Testimonials

Attorney Mitchell represented me in a time of need and his representation saved and changed my life forever.

I was in a situation with the IRS on mail fraud through a scheme that I thought was legit - I was wrong.

This man took on my case, did an excellent job representing me as my federal defense attorney and changed my life in more ways than one, convincing the federal judge to sentence me to a term of probation against the recommendation of the prosecutor.

I would recommend him with the highest to anyone I know and whom I don't know.

I had the honor of being represented by Mr. Mitchell after I was charged with committing bank fraud in Indiana.

Attorney Mitchell took the time to work with me, to investigate all possible legal defenses, and to prepare me for trial. He met with me on weekends and would call me at night from his home because he was still working after hours.

In the end Attorney Mitchell convinced the federal judge to dismiss all charges after the prosecutor presented many witnesses, including an FBI case agent. I would recommend this attorney to anyone needing a criminal defense attorney in federal court.
