Criminal Law

BTC Law is led by a former federal prosecutor with extensive experience handling a wide range of criminal investigations and prosecutions.  We bring our experience and insight to successfully defend clients throughout all stages of a criminal case.  How a case advances is often determined by the investigative agency advancing the investigation.  At BTC Law, we have direct experience working investigations with the Bureau of Industry and Security-Office of Export Enforcement (BIS-OEE), Customs and Border Protection (CBP), Diplomatic Security Service (DSS), Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), Internal Revenue Service-Criminal Investigation Division (IRS-CID), and U.S. Secret Service (USSS).  That experience includes handling cases in the following areas:

​

• witness questioning;

• grand jury investigations;

• fraud;

• kickbacks;

• financial crimes;

• stolen identity refund fraud;

• foreign and domestic public corruption;

• money laundering;

• failure to file Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts (FBAR); 

• Bank Secrecy Act (BSA);

• false and fraudulent tax returns;

• tax fraud and tax evasion;

• firearms and firearms trafficking;

• false documentation;

• human smuggling; 

• trademark/copyright;

• drug trafficking;

• export control violations;

• counterterrorism; and 

• terrorist financing. 

​​

With our intimate knowledge of complex investigations, we are able to devise strategies to navigate the complexities of an investigation, limit our clients' exposure when possible, and vigorously defend our clients when necessary at trial.
