If you have been arrested on criminal charges, a criminal conviction can impact your life and livelihood.  Depending on your crime, you may be facing serious consequences that can burden you for years to come.

At Cohn Lifland, we are here to assess your case, guide you through your legal options and effectively defend you.  We represent clients in a variety of criminal matters, including domestic violence, drug possession and distribution, DWI charges, violent crimes and white collar matters.  We also represent juvenile clients, those who face traffic violations and those who need expungements.

The Criminal Defense practice group handles white collar and other criminal offenses for defendants at the federal, state and municipal levels, ranging from fraud and other forms of white collar crime, to the sensitive area of domestic violence.

In recent years, the number of white collar case being enforced through criminal, not just civil, actions, has risen.  It is more important than ever that those individuals receiving requests for information from a government or regulatory agency seek immediate counsel from attorneys experienced in such investigations.  Potential white collar crime penalties go far beyond fines, and include prison sentences and forfeiture.  Highly competent counsel is critical to preserving your rights and protecting your future.

We have successfully represented corporate and individual clients who have come under criminal or quasi-criminal investigation or who have been subpoenaed in conjunction with such investigations in matters relating to real estate and mortgage fraud, embezzlement, money laundering, RICO actions and the like.
