White Collar Defense
Bozorgi Law represents corporations, executives, public officials, professionals, and individuals in white-collar investigations and prosecutions in both federal and state courts. Our attorneys have decades of experience handling complex fraud and regulatory cases, from investigation through trial.
Defending a white-collar case demands specialized knowledge—of federal practice, evidentiary rules, and sentencing guidelines—and the ability to manage large volumes of data with precision. Our firm combines deep courtroom experience with a proven record in complex matters to assess allegations clearly and build strategic, informed defenses.
The white-collar cases we handle span a wide range of industries and professions. Each matter requires a strong understanding of the client’s specific business or professional environment to properly evaluate the government’s allegations. Our broad experience across diverse sectors enables us to analyze the facts efficiently and develop tailored defense strategies that anticipate the government’s approach.
We draw on collaboration, technology, and expert analysis to manage even the most document-intensive cases effectively. Our attorneys work closely with investigators, forensic accountants, financial experts, and other specialists to synthesize large data sets and identify key evidence. This approach allows us to act decisively and efficiently while maintaining a deep command of the facts.
Our team’s trial experience remains one of our greatest strengths in white-collar prosecutions. We believe that aggressive advocacy, creativity, and readiness to try a case are critical to protecting a client’s reputation and livelihood. Our extensive jury trial experience has led to many successful verdicts—and in numerous cases, our reputation and preparedness for trial have resulted in favorable resolutions before trial.
We also take pride in our approach to mitigation and sentencing advocacy. We develop comprehensive presentations that highlight mitigating factors, our clients’ personal histories, and the circumstances surrounding the allegations. This approach has, in some instances, helped prevent charges from being filed or led to outcomes exceeding expectations.
Equally important to our advocacy is the relationship we build with our clients. We are committed to guiding them—and their families—through every stage of this difficult process with clarity, empathy, and respect.
