I hired a white collar criminal defense attorney.
A coworker and myself were recently charged with some white collar crimes. We worked for the area transpotation authority, and we were caught taking mney from the company. I hired a white collar criminal defense attorney from out of town. She hired a local attorney. The trials were held separately. We both took plea bargains before the trial was scheduled to begin. I got a lesser punishment than she did. We were both charged with the same crimes and the same number of counts. I think my attorney played a big part in the fact that I got a lesser punsihment than she did. I paid a larger retainer fee, but it was worth it.
