Experienced Federal Criminal Defense Attorneys in San Francisco
Not all criminal defense lawyers have the experience and knowledge to defend against federal charges. Federal prosecutors often do not prosecute a case until they are fairly certain that they have the necessary evidence to get a conviction.
There are serious consequences including lengthy prison sentences for convictions for federal crimes. To schedule a free initial consultation to work with one of our highly experienced criminal attorneys, please contact Garcia, Schnayerson & Thompson.
Our attorneys routinely work with people who have been charged with, accused of, or indicted for federal crimes:
- Federal drug crimes, including conspiracy to import or distribute drugs
- Federal white collar crimes
- Criminal copyright violations
- Software pirating
- Money laundering
- Structuring (i.e. trying to get around the bank transaction reporting rules)

- RICO (racketeering)
- Child pornography
- Environmental crimes
- Federal benefits fraud

The federal sentencing guidelines impose strict penalties in federal crimes. If you are part of a large drug case or other types of crimes with multiple defendants there may be opportunities for a reduction in your sentence if you are willing to give over evidence to the prosecutor or act as a government informant.
