Federal Criminal Defense

The moment a federal agent contacts you, a federal grand jury subpoena comes in the mail or you otherwise become involved in a criminal investigation, retain a lawyer. Do not wait for charges to be filed before you seek legal advice. Obtaining legal representation is in no way an admission of guilt, as innocent people unfortunately often believe. Rather hiring a lawyer is a smart decision that could change the course of your case and protect your future. By retaining counsel at the investigative stage of the case, you may be able to avoid criminal charges altogether, avoid pitfalls that often entrap innocent people, and keep your future in your hands, as opposed to the hands of government prosecutors.

Attorney Trapp will aggressively protect you from collateral damage, including tarnished reputation, loss of your professional license, heavy fines and forfeiture of property. In addition, he will challenge the unlawful seizure of your assets by the federal government, which have become all too common in recent years.
