I very much recommend John's services, as I've never met such a kind & caring attorney, who never treats his clients like another number: His services are quick, seamless, and on top of which he has also provided some added assurance in all aspects, "holding my hand" throughout the entire process. His negotiation skills are also top notch! I'm very impressed by his work & would most definitely have him be my defender again if I ever experience another unforeseen predicament.

We were just about to give up hope on getting my boyfriend's license reinstated in IL when I contacted John Callahan this all changed. He and his associates were very helpful and understanding of our situation. They walked us through every step of the way and made it a much easier process than we had experienced trying to do it on our own. We highly recommend John Callahan and his associates. Thank you again for all your help!!

George is a very dedicating that will do all his best to put you at the most favor condition as possible. When I had a couple of condition give in probation rules. There are couple of rules that he would like to get rid of for my sake as he knows I would be reliable to do no such things harmful. This was my first time getting into this area of criminal. My head was expecting nothing. I'm totally clueless about myself, what do I do, what I have to do or what do i need to do. For all my life I have been living good, I never thought I would be in such scenario like I did today. Thanks to George, he really takes your times to give you a lot of insight and did his best make the best result out of your case. He is very patience and communicate. I would strongly recommend to have him help your case. 100% for sure he will do all the best he can to make sure you are in a good place. I'm very grateful that he is my attorney and help me in my case. Thank you very much for being my lawyer.

Prya is the best lawyer you could ever ask for she has held my hand for the last few years and got me the best outcome in my case! I got off with a slap on the wrist and got my probation terminated early ! THATS WHAT U CALL A LAWYER !!!!!! Love Prya she is a sweetheart and I would recommend her to any friends or family . She wants the best for her clients and I just can’t imagine my life if I didn’t have her. When I got locked up she helped me immensely!!!! From beginning to the end she was more then just a lawyer she was a super women literally saving me. If it wasn’t for Prya I would probably be in some jail in Florida right now honestly. But I’m a free women now and if you think about choosing Prya to hire you don’t think twice about it !!! She is the ONE. God didn’t play when it came to Prya !!! Love ya girl thank u I can’t thank u enough I’m the happiest girl in the world and I won’t let you down !you believed in me!

After going through car repossession and foreclosure in 2020, my credit score dropped to Equifax: 509, TransUnion: 501. All attempts to get my credit back to a good rating didn’t yield positive results. Just last month while I was browsing a credit blog, I came across a comment by Laura on how she got her credit fixed by PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST. Immediately, I reached out to PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST and asked if he could help fix my credit score too. He responded positively and I had to subscribe to his services. On checking my credit report after 6 days, my score had skyrocketed to Equifax: 806, TransUnion: 811. I also noticed that the car repossession, foreclosure, hard inquiries, and late payments on my credit report have been removed. What an awesome service! Here’s his contact info if you need his services; EMAIL:

They were true professionals from the start, and treated me with respect and compassion throughout the whole scary and uncertain process. They made themselves available to answer any questions I had or to walk me through any concerns that I brought up. I felt comfortable in all of my interactions with them and they kept me up to speed on all things legal related to my case. Although I would not wish my experience on anyone, I will forever be grateful to Yancey Ellis and Zach Deubler for getting me through the most traumatic experience of my life. I am incredibly thankful for the professionalism and care they showed not only me, but my family as well. They are the best of the best!

Yancee Ellis, who handled my case, not only quickly understood the facts of the case from my descriptions, he also researched and uncovered additional facts on line, and from his sources, and developed winning defense arguments at the Preliminary Hearing, resulting in an extraordinarily rare, "No Probable Cause" outcome bringing my case to a successful conclusion. I hearty recommend him, and the firm for anyone needing good, through legal council.

I was originally introduced to Alisha through a referral, and I am SO thankful I was. Throughout what you can imagine is always a stressful process (anything court related) she was great in every aspect. Not only is she educated, but she was patient with me when I jumped 10 steps ahead in the rabbit hole of “what ifs.” Alisha was always honest and made me aware of what was happening, or what could happen next. What will resonate with me, and definitely make me a return client, is that I never felt alone. I never felt a “where is she.” I’m 100% sure I was not her only client, but I felt like I was. I was confident knowing I had her on my side and that is what mattered the most to me.

I highly recommend Attorney Sean Buckley as a criminal defense lawyer. His intelligence, compassion, and genuine understanding of his clients as human beings set him apart. His knowledge of the law is unsurpassable, and the treatment you receive from his office, whether you are the client or a loved one trying to help your family member, is truly special. Sean Buckley takes a truly individual approach to each case because he knows there are no two cases or defendants that are alike, which is so important for a criminal defense attorney to understand when they are representing a client. He helped two family members of mine who found themselves in trouble and were looking at the loss of their freedom. He understood the underlying causes of their alleged offenses and made sure that the State and the judge understood as well. Through this, he found a way to put my loved ones on a good path and gave them a new lease on life. If you or someone you love needs help, I cannot recommend him enough. Sean Buckley helps restore lives and gives people the opportunity for a second chance.

Mr. Kirwan stormed right in, fought for me and cleared the path for my family to be reunited after the three of us were threatened by a state trooper and torn apart for 17 months straight.

Recently dealt with a case for a dui. Ron not only was hands on and helped me through all the hurdles but reduced my charge to a reckless operation. The court tried everything in their power to keep changing the plea deal but Ron continued to push, and fight for me. If there is anyone you want in your corner, it is him. Hands down, I’d hire him again and again!

Kraut law group was very courteous and professional, and most important of all, competent when it came to handling my case. I was facing a serious charge and not only where they able to get it dismissed, they were able to get it sealed as well. I'd recommend Kraut Law Group to anyone needing peace of mind. Thank you very much for your service - I can feel the burden of the weight I had on my back's been lifted.

Mr. Hankoff represented me in my DUI case, and I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney. I reached out to his firm the morning after I was pulled over, feeling overwhelmed and anxious about what lay ahead. From our first conversation, he made a strong impression—his confidence and professionalism immediately put me at ease. He assured me that he would leave no stone unturned in my defense, and he truly delivered on that promise. While Mr. Hankoff and Mr. Kraut’s firm is large and handles many cases, their expertise is evident. They may not provide constant hand-holding, but their knowledge and strategic approach make them highly effective. After eight months, my case was ultimately dismissed. Watching Mr. Hankoff argue on my behalf in court was incredibly reassuring. He handled every aspect of the case with skill and professionalism, countering every argument with precision and ensuring that my side was presented in the best possible light. Given what was at stake for my future, I am beyond grateful for the outcome. If you’re looking for a strong legal team that knows how to navigate the system and fight for you, I highly recommend Mr. Hankoff, Mr. Kraut, and his firm.

When Robert Johnson wrote and recorded Crossroads in 1936, he would have been well served to do a deep dive on the devil he was about to meet before selling his soul. Nowadays, Crossroads Investigations can do that for you, by locating anyone, anywhere and give you the information you need before making a deal with them, lending them money, having them watch your kids, investing in one of their their projects, or for any other myriad reasons you need to pull back the curtain to reveal the true man or woman behind the curtain. CI is beyond great; they are terrific. Fast, efficient, detail oriented, and courteous. I give them 5 stars and my highest recommendation.

Meike is the best! She's intelligent, knowledgeable and compassionate. We hired Mieke to represent my brother who found himself charged in a criminal matter. We were beside ourselves, worrying about the outcome. We had retained a prior attorney who we felt did was not representing him properly, and would have landed him in prison. When Mieke substituted in to the case, she was able to review everything with a fresh perspective and was able to negotiate the charges down to a misdemeanor and summary probation. We are so grateful to Mieke for her dedication and experience, she comforted us and held our hand through the entire ordeal. I wholeheartedly recommend Mieke to anyone who needs legal representation, she is highly experienced, honest, and actually cares about her clients and their families.

First I would like to say Irma in the office was by far the best. In moments where I was anxious or concerned she made sure all of my questions and concerns were addressed. My attorney was Ryan King. From the beginning he was knowledgeable and straight forward. He made sure that I understood how the process was going and what I needed to do. He got me the best arrangement for my charges and I definitely came away pleased. What made the experience A+ was that no matter where at in the process I was at Mr. king has always taken time to call or set up appointments to talk. I would 10/10 recommend Ryan King for anyone that needs legal assistance.

I am very pleased with the service, expertise, and professionalism from the team at Benedict Law Group, during a recent legal dispute with a NYC company. Brendan identified the issues and took the necessary steps to ensure the contractual breaches committed by a NYC, 3PL company stopped. Benedict Law Group worked tirelessly to hold the perpetrators accountable and ensured that the letter of the law was executed. He immediately identified overcharges, violations in the contract, fraudulent misrepresentation, illegal seizure of property, malice, and contempt towards my business. He quickly performed/filed the exact legal necessities to force them to comply with the law. I am grateful that Brendan was there to put a halt to the pain, suffering, and monetary destruction that company tried to inflict. I would hire them to represent me and highly recommend them for your legal needs.

What a Federal Crime Lawyer Can Do for You

A federal crime lawyer specializes in defending individuals or organizations accused of violating federal laws. These lawyers have experience navigating the complex federal criminal justice system, which includes higher penalties, stricter sentencing guidelines, and a different court system than state-level crimes. Federal crime lawyers defend clients against a wide range of charges, such as drug trafficking, white-collar crimes, fraud, conspiracy, gun violations, and more. They assist in every phase of the legal process, from investigation to trial and appeals, ensuring their clients' rights are protected.

If you’re facing federal criminal charges, a federal crime lawyer can provide the necessary defense and expertise to navigate the complexities of federal law and achieve the best possible outcome.

When Should I Hire a Federal Crime Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a federal crime lawyer in any situation where you are under investigation or have been charged with a federal crime. Key scenarios include:

  • Charged with a federal crime: If you’ve been charged with a federal offense, such as drug trafficking, wire fraud, money laundering, or conspiracy, hiring a federal crime lawyer is essential to ensure your defense is tailored to federal court procedures and laws.
  • Target of a federal investigation: If you are being investigated by federal agencies like the FBI, DEA, ATF, or IRS, it’s crucial to retain a lawyer early on. A lawyer can help you avoid self-incrimination and build a defense strategy to counter the investigation.
  • White-collar crimes: If you’ve been accused of federal white-collar crimes such as securities fraud, embezzlement, or insider trading, a lawyer can help defend you against charges brought by federal prosecutors and regulatory agencies like the SEC.
  • Drug-related charges: If you’re facing federal drug charges, such as possession, distribution, or trafficking of controlled substances, a lawyer can represent you in federal court and negotiate plea deals or challenge the prosecution’s case.
  • Gun-related offenses: If you’ve been charged with federal gun crimes, including illegal possession, trafficking, or using a firearm during a violent crime, a federal crime lawyer can help defend against harsh federal penalties.
  • Immigration-related crimes: Federal charges involving immigration violations, such as human trafficking, smuggling, or illegal re-entry after deportation, require specialized legal knowledge of both federal criminal law and immigration law.
  • Appeals: If you’ve been convicted of a federal crime and are seeking to appeal the conviction or sentence, a federal crime lawyer can assist with the appeals process, focusing on legal errors or issues that may have occurred during the trial.

Hiring a lawyer as soon as you know you are under investigation or charged with a federal crime gives you the best chance of protecting your rights and building a strong defense.

What Does a Federal Crime Lawyer Do?

A federal crime lawyer provides a wide range of legal services to defend individuals and organizations accused of federal crimes. Their responsibilities often include:

  • Defending clients in federal court: Federal crime lawyers represent clients in all stages of federal criminal proceedings, including pre-trial motions, plea negotiations, trials, and sentencing hearings.
  • Building a defense strategy: Lawyers thoroughly investigate the charges, review the prosecution’s evidence, and develop a defense strategy tailored to the unique aspects of federal law and sentencing guidelines.
  • Negotiating plea deals: In some cases, a lawyer may negotiate with federal prosecutors to reduce charges or penalties, potentially avoiding a lengthy trial and reducing sentencing.
  • Handling federal investigations: If you are the subject of a federal investigation, a lawyer will guide you on how to interact with federal agents, respond to subpoenas, and handle potential interrogations, ensuring your rights are not violated.
  • Filing pre-trial motions: Federal crime lawyers can file motions to suppress evidence, dismiss charges, or challenge the legality of the investigation or arrest, aiming to weaken the prosecution’s case before trial.
  • Representing clients in appeals: If you’ve been convicted, a federal crime lawyer can represent you in the appeals process, focusing on legal errors, misconduct, or constitutional issues that may have affected the trial’s outcome.
  • Managing sentencing and post-conviction matters: Lawyers also help clients during the sentencing phase, arguing for leniency or alternatives to imprisonment, and assist with post-conviction matters such as parole or supervised release violations.

How Are Federal Crime Lawyers Paid?

Federal crime lawyers typically charge for their services in various ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the expected time commitment. Common payment structures include:

  • Hourly rate: Many federal crime lawyers charge by the hour, with rates typically ranging from $300 to $1,000 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience, the case complexity, and geographic location.
  • Flat fee: For specific services, such as negotiating a plea deal or representing you during the initial stages of a federal investigation, some lawyers offer a flat fee. Flat fees for federal criminal defense cases often range from $5,000 to $25,000, depending on the scope of the work.
  • Retainer: In complex federal cases, a lawyer may require a retainer, which is an upfront payment that covers a portion of the legal work. The lawyer then bills against this retainer as they work on the case. Retainers typically range from $10,000 to $100,000 or more, depending on the case.
  • Payment plans: Some federal crime lawyers may offer payment plans, especially if the case involves extended litigation or lengthy appeals. This can help make legal fees more manageable over time.

It’s crucial to discuss fees with your lawyer upfront to understand the total cost of representation and how payments will be handled throughout the case.

How Much Does a Federal Crime Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a federal crime lawyer depends on the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the time required to resolve the case. General cost estimates include:

  • Hourly rates: Federal crime lawyers generally charge between $300 and $1,000 per hour. For example, if a lawyer charges $500 per hour and spends 50 hours on your case, the total cost would be $25,000.
  • Flat fees: For simpler cases, such as negotiating a plea deal, flat fees can range from $5,000 to $25,000 or more, depending on the seriousness of the charges and the lawyer’s experience.
  • Retainers: In more complex or ongoing cases, a lawyer may require a retainer of $10,000 to $100,000, depending on the case’s scope and complexity.
  • Appeals: If you’re appealing a federal conviction, legal fees for an appeal can range from $10,000 to $50,000 or more, depending on the issues being raised and the length of the appellate process.

In addition to legal fees, you may also need to cover additional costs such as court filing fees, expert witness fees, and investigation expenses.

Top Questions to Ask a Federal Crime Lawyer

Before hiring a federal crime lawyer, it’s essential to ask key questions to ensure they have the necessary experience and qualifications to handle your case. Key questions to ask include:

  1. What experience do you have with federal cases?
    Ensure the lawyer has extensive experience handling federal criminal cases, particularly those similar to yours, such as drug trafficking, white-collar crimes, or gun violations.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or requires a retainer. Ask for a detailed estimate of the total cost of your defense.
  3. What are the possible outcomes of my case?
    Ask for an honest assessment of your case and the potential outcomes, including plea deals, dismissals, or trial strategies.
  4. What is your approach to defending federal cases?
    Ask how the lawyer plans to approach your defense, including potential pre-trial motions, negotiations with federal prosecutors, or trial strategies.
  5. Will my case go to trial?
    Ask whether the lawyer thinks your case will settle out of court through a plea deal or whether it’s expected to go to trial, and how the lawyer will prepare for either scenario.
  6. How long will my case take?
    Federal cases can take time to resolve, so ask the lawyer for an estimated timeline, from investigation to trial or settlement.
  7. What are the possible penalties if convicted?
    Ask about the potential penalties you could face if convicted, including prison time, fines, or other consequences, and how the lawyer plans to mitigate those penalties.

How to Check the Credibility of a Federal Crime Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable federal crime lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and experience:

  • Check their bar status: Verify with your state bar association that the lawyer is licensed to practice law and has no disciplinary actions or complaints.
  • Look for federal crime experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in federal criminal defense and have successfully handled cases like yours.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about their experience with the lawyer.
  • Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on federal cases.
  • Check for federal court admissions: Make sure the lawyer is admitted to practice in federal court, as federal criminal cases are handled in federal district courts.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a federal crime lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Information about the charges or investigation: Provide any documents related to the charges against you, such as indictments, subpoenas, or notices of investigation. This helps the lawyer assess the severity of the charges and the potential defense strategy.
  • Details of previous interactions with federal agents: If federal agents have contacted you or conducted searches, provide a detailed account of those interactions, including search warrants, interrogations, or evidence seized.
  • Questions about your case: Prepare a list of questions regarding the legal process, potential outcomes, and how the lawyer plans to defend you.
  • Relevant financial information: If your case involves financial crimes or assets that may be at risk, bring relevant financial records, such as bank statements, business records, or tax returns.
  • Previous legal history: If you have a prior criminal record or have been involved in federal investigations before, bring details about those cases.

By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your situation more effectively and provide the best possible legal defense for your federal case.
