Smart And Strategic Defense Against Computer Crime Charges
An individual’s digital DNA is a broader concept than just a few years ago. Evidence exists not just on the hard drive on your desktop PC, but also on smart phones, networks, cloud storage, thumb drives, MP3 players, password-protected data sites, malware downloads — anywhere that data can be stored.
The more dispersed this information, the less likely it is that only one person has access to it. We make prosecutors prove that it was your intent to commit a crime — not an easy thing to do. In one sense, cyber crime defense closely resembles strong conventional defense: We are vigilant to violations of constitutional search and seizure protections.
Of course, the specific facts of your case will affect how we tailor our defense. For example, you may have been charged with a sex offense such as possession of child pornography or Internet solicitation of a minor. This will call for a response that is sensitive to those circumstances.
Similarly, if you have been charged with credit card fraud or some other theft offense, we will work the authorities to find a resolution that fully protects your rights throughout the process.
No matter what you have been charged with — from hacking, cyberstalking or anything else — we will use our experience to make a smart and strategic defense.
