Nashville White Collar Crime Legal Defense Attorney
White collar crimes often differ significantly from other crimes. Violence is rarely involved, the accused is often an otherwise law-abiding and contributing citizen, and white collar violations frequently occur in an atmosphere of confusion regarding the law.
At The Law Offices of Jennifer Lynn Thompson, we understand the confusion and anxiety that can result upon learning of charges of white collar crimes, and have defended numerous Nashville-area residents against a broad range of business-, finance- and accounting-related charges.
Handling Sensitive Legal White Collar Charges with Skill and Discretion
Lawyer Jennifer Thompson has handled white collar cases involving government investigators and suspected cases reported by private organizations. White collar crimes can result in challenges unique to criminal law. For example:
- Health care fraud charges against doctors, pharmacists, dentists and chiropractors are often brought forth not by investigators but by health insurance companies and other organizations. These organizations have a vested interest in the outcome and can skew the case.
- Residential loan fraud charges against homeowners are often brought forth not by investigators but by banks and other lenders. These organizations have a vested interest in the outcome and can skew evidence.
- Employees and shareholders can be pressured to waive their Fifth Amendment rights by investigators with the Department of Justice.
- Medical professionals can be charged with fraud, over treatment and the pursuit of overpayment when they are really attempting to provide the most comprehensive care possible.
We can provide legal counsel and full representation in cases involving a wide range of white collar charges, including:
- Wire and mail fraud
- Identity theft
- Forgery, extortion, blackmail, counterfeiting and bribery of a public official
- Tax and credit card violations
- Corporate and shareholder/stockholder charges
- Larceny and embezzlement
- Check and currency violations
- Immigration charges, including illegal entry and illegal reentry
- Health care fraud
