When you receive a knock on the door from a federal agent, it’s time to get a federal criminal investigation attorney on your side. The Law Office of J. Warren St. John, has decades of experience in handling civil and criminal cases tried by federal agencies. This is not an area you should navigate alone. The stress and pressure from government agencies make it far too easy to collapse or make a mistake that can be used against you in court. Your best defense is to hire a federal investigation lawyer to do everything within the bounds of the law to free or reduce charges against you or your company.
