Federal criminal defense tends to involve cases which are more difficult to defend, and the cost of defense is often very high. The Massachusetts federal criminal attorneys in our firm who handle federal criminal cases can help you assess the nature and purpose of the investigation, and why you are being approached. When appropriate, one of our Massachusetts federal criminal defense lawyers can be present during any questioning, act as an intermediary between you and the investigating authorities, or advise you to exercise your Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination. If appropriate, we may be able to work out a deal where you will cooperate with the investigation, in return for more favorable treatment when the investigation is concluded. In appropriate cases, your Massachusetts federal criminal lawyer may also be able to secure a letter of declination, in which the U.S. attorney formally declines to prosecute you in relation to a particular offense or investigation also known as a Queen’s letter. There is no such thing as a highly qualified federal criminal defense lawyer who dabbles in federal court matters. If you are involved in the federal criminal system, make sure your lawyer, or at least one of the lawyers who will be serving on your defense team, has extensive experience with the defense of federal criminal charges. As previously noted, federal criminal defense tends to be very expensive. You will be paying for experience – so make sure you get it.
