The term White Collar Crime was originally coined by
Professor Edward Sutherland in 1949 in his book “White
Collar Crime” to identify nonviolent crimes committed by
corporations or individuals such as office workers or sales
personnel in the course of their business activities. While
his intent was to classify crimes committed by the wealthy,
over the years the laws pertaining to criminal offenses
regarded as white collar crimes has expanded to include many
forms of fraud, theft, and illegal deceptive practices which
affect individuals, businesses, the government, and the
American Public.

A white collar crime often involves intentional acts of
deception through misrepresentation of facts by one or more
individuals for the purpose of financial gain, to obtain
benefits which they are otherwise not entitled, to deprive
others of their property or assets, or to receive other
types of privileges, compensation, or services which the
accused would not have received if the true facts were
disclosed.
Many white collar crimes may also be committed by an
omission or purposeful failure to state material facts,
which nondisclosure makes other statements misleading. In
short, omitting relevant facts is just as liable as
manufacturing facts which are untrue.
In order for the prosecution to obtain a conviction for a
white collar crime they must prove beyond a reasonable doubt
that you intentionally and knowingly committed the crime (or
crimes) you are being tried for. We will put every piece of
evidence under a microscope, as well as the actions of law
enforcement as they pertain to your case in an effort to
prove your innocence or show the jury and/or judge that
reasonable doubt of your guilt does in fact exist.
