FEDERAL CRIMES
The highly skilled attorneys at KAPLAN MARINO regularly handle all federal cases including, but not limited to, white collar crimes, drug charges, and pornography.
Our attorneys at KAPLAN MARINO have represented individuals and entities in numerous Federal District Courts throughout the United States, including, but not limited to, Arkansas, California, Georgia, Nevada, New York, Ohio, Texas, and Virginia. We are adept at providing the best representation to our client irrespective of venue.
We believe that top notch representation begins from the moment we are retained and prevails throughout every stage of the criminal process, from pre indictment, to bail, to the discovery process, negotiation, jury trial, and sentencing. At KAPLAN MARINO, our efforts on behalf of our clients are duly noted in the results achieved. We use all of our skills in the aggressive representation of our clients. We meticulously review all the evidence, carefully conduct our own investigation, and prepare our client’s defense with cost effective efficiency. We are well prepared for a jury trial in the event settlement is not desired.
Confidentiality and discretion are top priorities for the attorneys at KAPLAN MARINO. We know that any contact with the criminal justice system can have collateral consequences. Unlike some firms, we do not seek out the media or attention. We provide each of our clients with a strategic style of aggressive and thorough representation.
Representative Cases:
Our client was alleged to be involved in a “ponzi” scheme. Based on our client’s place of residence, and the location of witnesses and evidence necessary to the defense, our attorney was successful in obtaining a change of venue from the Southern District of New York to the Central District of California. This change of venue inconveniently caused the New York based Assistant United States Attorney to travel to California to continue the prosecution. Ultimately, the case was resolved favorably for our client.
Our client was charged with FDA regulatory violations involving customs laws and was acquitted of all federal felony charges after a jury trial. The co-defendant, sadly, was sentenced to several years in prison.
Our client, a university student, was charged with computer and IP crimes for his disbursement of satellite TV blueprints on the internet which caused millions of dollars in losses. As a result of our skillful negotiation with the Office of the United States Attorney regarding important aspects of both the crime and our client, our client received a probationary sentence.
Our client was charged with conspiracy and defrauding Medicare for millions of dollars. The case involved multiple defendants, many of whom had fled the jurisdiction. By the time our client was arrested entering the country, the case was several years old. Our client had a common name and we were able to convince the government they would be unable to prove he was the same person that was involved in the fraud and conspiracy. The matter was dismissed.
Our client, charged with money laundering in Arkansas, was wrongfully denied bail at the time of his initial appearance in California. We argued again for bail in Arkansas before the District Court, and when that court denied bail to our client yet again, we took the case to the appellate court in the Eighth Circuit where, we won, thereby gaining our client’s freedom. After more than a year, we successfully resolved the case avoiding any custody time for our client.
Our client was charged in his third federal health care fraud case involving millions of dollars in losses. We successfully obtained a sentence which did not include any custodial time in prison. Ten years later, this same client was again accused, now his fourth case. By carefully investigating and documenting his very serious and varied medical conditions, we were again successful in keeping this client with his family.
