Fort Myers Federal Defense Attorneys

Federal crimes, such as wire fraud, government fraud, identity theft, drug trafficking or kidnapping, are all serious criminal offenses which may end in many years of incarceration if you are convicted.

Federal Crimes vs. State Crimes

One important difference between a federal crime and a crime that falls under state jurisdiction is the manner in which an investigation is conducted. For federal crimes, the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigations), CIA (Central Intelligence Agency), ICE (Immigration & Customs Enforcement), DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) and the criminal division of the IRS (Internal Revenue Service) may become involved. The resources that federal law enforcement agencies have are usually much greater than local law enforcement agencies will have, and federal agents will often invest a great deal of time and effort into a single case, with investigations sometimes lasting for months or longer.
