Houston Money Laundering Attorney

Money Laundering - Houston Criminal Defense Lawyer

Money laundering is a very serious white collar crime with very serious consequences. Because it is often a way to hide incoming funds from other criminal activities, including terrorism, drug manufacturing, immigrant smuggling and embezzlement, money laundering is one of the most frequently investigated crime by the FBI, IRS and other federal agencies. If you or your company has been suspected of money laundering, it is critical that you defend yourself with the help of a top Houston criminal attorney.

Suspected money launderers will always be thoroughly investigated prior to being officially charged. If you believe you may be under investigation, it is advisable to speak with a Houston criminal lawyer before the investigation is under full swing to ensure that your right to privacy and your right to be free of unreasonable search and seizure are both upheld to the fullest. Your defense representative can help you prevent further investigations into your affairs and bank accounts without proper authorization and warrants.

Many money laundering charges are paired with other criminal charges, which is why it is important that anyone who suspects they are under investigation for the crime hire a Houston criminal attorney with experience in all areas of both federal and state crimes. At The Law Offices of Ned Barnett, our experienced team can ensure that you will always be paired with an experienced and knowledgeable representative.

Even if the investigations uncover no other crime outside of money laundering, you can still face serious penalties, including prison sentences as long as twenty years. You may also lose all property believed to have been involved with or purchased with the money from the illegal activity. Your Houston criminal lawyer can help you fight these devastating consequences.
