Discovering that you or someone you know is under investigation by a federal agency can be nothing short of terrifying. The FBI, CIA, DEA, ATF, IRS and other federal organizations have extensive resources and ample manpower and are trained to collect and preserve evidence that can be used against defendants during legal proceedings. In fact, the part of the FBI’s mission statement claims that the heart of their operations lies in their investigations. For those who stand accused, this means that powerful entities are at work against them.

Although these investigations are lawful, there is a fine line between warranted invasiveness and a violation of your rights. When you retain legal representation as soon as possible during a federal investigation, you can better ensure that your rights will be protected and that you know the steps you can take to defend yourself against federal crime allegations.

At Okabe & Haushalter, our team of experienced Chicago criminal defense attorneys has been by the sides of clients throughout many federal investigations. By retaining us early in their legal process, many of our clients were able to successfully avoid legal proceedings. When indictments were inevitable, our clients’ cases benefited from the head start and ample time to prepare defense strategies that aimed to neutralize the evidence and prosecution’s case. Our firm can also ensure that you are not treated unlawfully by federal agencies, such as in the case of unlawful search and seizures.
