The federal criminal system is in many ways like the state system, but it has some very significant differences. One difference is that the typical United States Attorney's office, responsible for prosecuting federal criminal charges, has significantly more time and resources to direct to any given prosecution than would a state prosecutor. Federal prosecutors also typically have better academic credentials than state prosecutors, and many have a great deal of latitude in selecting the cases they wish to prosecute through the federal courts.

Because of the formality and unforgiving nature of federal proceedings, it is critical that you retain a lawyer with significant experience in dealing with the sensitivities of the federal system.

Federal crimes include: • Drug cases and racketeering • Tax fraud • Extortion • Internet fraud • Identity theft • Sex cases including the interstate dissemination of pornography
