White collar crime is a general phrase referring to violations based on deception, fraud or breach of trust instead of threats or violence to achieve an illegal purpose. Embezzlement or bank fraud are examples of white collar property crimes, while offenses such as perjury or election fraud may or may not be committed for purposes of gain.
In our experience with white collar crime defense, the main focus of your defense should be protecting you from the consequences of conviction rather than fighting conviction on the charges, unless we can find a viable defense to the allegations against you.
Our typical white collar crime client has no serious prior criminal record, and the episode of employee theft or identity theft at stake in the current case usually reflects a combination of financial stress, temptation and opportunity. By presenting the complete story of your situation and a range of constructive alternatives for restitution, treatment or community service to the prosecution and the court, we can usually avoid incarceration.
We also work hard to limit your exposure to consequences in your career or threats to your standing in a licensed profession. Each of the defense strategies that we'll use in your case will take into account your future interests and long-term goals as well as your immediate legal problems.
For dependable advice about the best ways to resolve white collar crime charges from bank or insurance fraud to bribery or misappropriation of public funds, contact an experienced lawyer at Oliveros & O'Brien in Clackamas, Oregon.
