Georgia Federal Crime Defense Attorneys

Federal Crimes

A federal crime is a type of crime committed against the United States and usually involves crossing state lines, a crime that occurs on federal property, or a crime against a federal agent. Federal crimes are prosecuted in a federal court—also known as a United States District Court—and federal criminal investigations are conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) or another federal agency. Conaway, Strickler, & Margolis, P.C., is an experienced Georgia federal crimes law firm with over a decade of experience representing clients charged with federal crimes. Due to the highly specialized nature of federal crimes and the federal crime system, it is very important to retain the services of an experienced Atlanta federal crime lawyer.

The rules which govern sentencing and the collection of evidence in federal crimes differ from the State of Georgia’s rules. Therefore, it is critically important for anyone charged with federal crimes to be represented by a Georgia federal crime attorney who is very familiar with the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure. These rules are very complicated and cover:

  • Alleged crimes which occur on federal property, such as national parks or military bases
  • Alleged crimes that involve crossing state lines or sending illegal data on the Internet
  • Alleged criminal activity that involves interstate commerce, such as using the US Postal system, an express mail, or a delivery service to deliver illegal merchandise of any kind
  • Any alleged crime where the victim is a federal official

Part of what makes federal crimes highly specialized is that other federal agencies besides the FBI may also be involved in the investigation. These agencies may also include:

  • The Federal Drug Administration (FDA)
  • The Criminal Division of the Internal Revenue Service (CID)
  • The Secret Service
  • The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA)
  • The U.S. Postal Service
  • The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF)
  • The U.S. Customs Service
  • And other federal agencies

Federal criminal conduct is usually classified in one of seven different broad categories, such as fraud and theft, property crimes, sex offenses, child pornography, firearms offenses, crimes against a person, and drug offenses. A conviction on any of these or other federal crimes can result in steep fines, lengthy prison terms, the inability to obtain certain types of employment, probation, and other penalties.
