Dedicated Criminal Defense The Law Offices of Leonard Morales P.C. Is Here For You

Federal Criminal Law

Aggressive Attorney on Your Side

When you are facing a federal indictment, you must understand the accusations are more than serious. You are up against the might of the federal government. Federal Criminal Defense requires not just an understanding of the maze of federal laws, regulations and procedures, but the effect of the complex federal United States Federal Sentencing Guidelines. I am well versed and experienced in all areas of federal criminal law, procedure, and sentencing guidelines. I have tried and won cases in federal district court - not many criminal defense lawyers can say that.

We offer a free consultation on all federal criminal cases.

BEWARE: Federal courts are not the place for your lawyer to be learning on the job. Experience and knowledge of the Federal Rules of Evidence, Code of Criminal Procedure, and the United States Federal Sentencing Guidelines are critical to the outcome of your case. The stakes are far too high in a system where you are facing the might and resources of the federal government to leave anything to chance.

In the Federal system a judge determines your sentence, and prison time is the usual penalty. Probation is very rare. I have represented clients in federal court for over a decade, and I have handled all manners of federal criminal cases.

I can be called upon to represent you in any Federal Court in the United States. I have represented clients in Federal District Court on the East and West coast and many districts in between. So, whether you or your loved one is charged or detained in El Paso, San Antonio, Philadelphia or anywhere in the United States, I am available to represent you.

In federal courts, I have tried many cases in the following areas:

  • Racketeering, Influenced, and Corrupt Organizations (RICO)
  • Conspiracies (illegal drugs, alien trafficking, criminal gangs)
  • Possession, importation, and distribution of controlled substances (marijuana, cocaine (crack), heroin, methamphetamines)
  • Federal criminal immigration violations (illegal entry by an alien, misuse or presentation of false documents to enter the United States, illegal re-entry into the United States)
  • White collar crimes (wire and mail fraud, money laundering, Medicare and Medicaid fraud)
