The Stages of Federal Criminal Cases

 

DEA and FBI Search Warrants

If your home or business is subject to a DEA or FBI search warrant, the first thing to know is that a judge approved the warrant based on probable cause that you committed a federal crime. While you may not currently face federal charges, this is a clear indicator federal investigators are building a case for your prosecution.

Federal Investigators Request an Interview

In everyday life, a phone call or visit from federal agents is a surprise. If you’re reading this after contact with law enforcement, you’re probably still in shock. 

Don’t speak to agents without an attorney present. If federal agents come to your home, decline an interview and instead ask for the opportunity to talk with an attorney from Lowther | Walker. We’ll contact investigators on your behalf and find out how you can help them in their investigation. 

In most cases, speaking with law enforcement is not in your best interest. You’re likely either the target or the subject of a federal investigation. Even if you’re the subject, you can become the target based on written or oral statements you give to investigators. Let Lowther | Walker advocate for you with prosecutors.

A Grand Jury Subpoena

Receiving a grand jury subpoena means the Georgia federal courts consider you a part of a federal investigation and believe you have documentation or testimony that could aid the prosecution’s case. A grand jury subpoena requires a response from the skilled federal criminal defense lawyers Lowther | Walker. We can help you avoid federal charges and reduce your exposure to potential criminal indictments. 

Criminal Trials

An indictment in a grand jury moves your case onto the trial stage. Lowther | Walker has made our name getting indictments dismissed and negotiating plea deals prior to trial. Our defense lawyers are also adept in the courtroom phase, acting as decisive legal advocates in federal trials and protecting our client’s freedom.
