White Collar Lawyer | Attorney
There has been some debate as to what qualifies as a white-collar crime, the term today generally encompasses a variety of nonviolent federal crimes usually committed in commercial situations for financial gain. The most common white-collar offenses include: antitrust violations, computer/internet fraud, credit card fraud, identity theft, phone/telemarketing fraud, narcotic distribution, bankruptcy fraud, healthcare
fraud, environmental law violations, insurance fraud, mail fraud, government fraud, tax evasion, tax fraud, financial fraud, securities fraud, insider trading, bribery, kickbacks, counterfeiting, public corruption, money laundering, embezzlement, economic espionage, pornography, and trade secret theft.
Michael Cernyar started his criminal defense career with a white-collar lawyer who was a member of the Federal Public Defender's Office Indigent Panel. Michael's first white collar criminal matter was Operation Casablanca, the U.S. Government's largest money laundering sting in the history. Since then, Michael has routinely handled white collar criminal actions brought by or in conjunction with a variety of
government agencies, including the United States Department of Justice, the U.S. Attorney's
Office, the Internal Revenue Service, the Secret Service, the Federal Reserve Bank, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Homeland Security, and the Drug Enforcement Agency.
After being
nominated by the Cochran Firm as their top criminal attorney in the fall of 2005, Michael started his own law firm. Currently, the Law Offices of Michael K. Cernyar are headquartered in Long Beach, California, with offices in Los Angeles and Newport Beach. We represent clients throughout the United States.
If you were
unjustly arrested for a white collar crime, then you may find that you are stymied by a system that would preferably convict the wrongfully accused than admit a mistake. You may be entirely innocent. Or maybe you are not entirely innocent, but are being overcharged with violations you did not commit. Michael Cernyar can defend you and your Rights during this time of injustice.
AN ENTIRE CAREER DEDICATED TO WHITE COLLAR DEFENSE
As you confront this most unpleasant set of circumstances, allow me to
introduce our firm and to offer you the assistance and support of an attorney
who has handled white collar cases similar to yours.
Having practice white collar defense for several years, I wish to share with you
some information that is essential to your defense. Early involvement by your white collar lawyer is crucial.
Whether you have been charged with a white collar misdemeanor or a felony, retaining a white collar lawyer soon after your arrest is crucial for several reasons. Moreover, having a white collar lawyer protecting your Constitutional Rights and conversing with the prosecutor that is assigned to your case - in advance of the first court date - along with speaking to the officer who filed the case, are successful strategies we have
employed in defending our clients and having our clients released during the proceedings.
Throughout the years I have represented many clients including those charged
with the most serious white collar, as well as those charged with their first white collar crime. My position is that the longer the accused
defers in retaining a white collar lawyer, the more complicated it becomes for a favorable conclusion.
