The Steps To Take After You’ve Been Accused Of A White Collar Crime

In Adams County, Wisconsin, a white collar crime is any nonviolent crime committed by any business or government professional.  White collar crimes include fraud, embezzlement, forgery, or money laundering and being accused can be detrimental to your reputation and career.

Southworth and Stamman have the experience and know-how to defend you and your reputation before or after being formally accused of the supposed crime.  The first step in defending and protecting your rights is talking to one of our lawyers.  As former prosecutors, we know how to navigate through the Wisconsin legal system and will work on your behalf towards the best possible outcome for your individual case. Talking to a law enforcement officer before consulting a lawyer, can result in an admission of guilt as anything you say can be used against you.  Having the guidance and support of a trusted and skilled defense attorney can help you make the right choices.

Once you’ve spoken with one of our defense representatives, we can begin building a case around the facts and unveiling, often times, a lengthy paper trail that can help prove your innocence.  Being upfront and forthcoming with the facts can help ease the burden of being accused.
