There are certain constitutional protections that apply if you have been arrested for a crime. Obtaining legal advice is the only way for you to ensure your legal rights are protected. If you are charged with a crime prior to being arrested, a judge will issue a warrant for your arrest and a police officer will attempt to locate you. When you are arrested, you will be read your Miranda rights. These are your constitutional rights that include the right to remain silent and the right to seek legal advice. Take advantage of these rights by hiring a trusted criminal defense attorney.
Federal Law is any law that is passed by Congress that makes the act illegal in the United States. While most cases are prosecuted at the state level, the laws passed by Congress are prosecuted at the federal level. When a crime is determined as a federal offense, it must be prosecuted in a federal court and usually carries a far more serious penalty. There are many types of crimes that can be brought to federal court. These crimes include everything from bankruptcy to white collar crimes, including federal internet crimes, health care fraud and insider trading. The list goes on.
