With decades of combined experience and a reputation for success, our attorneys are prepared to navigate the complexities of the federal legal system to protect your rights and secure the best possible outcome.
What is a Federal Criminal Defense Charge?
A federal criminal defense charge arises when an individual is accused of violating federal laws. These cases are prosecuted by the U.S. government and often involve investigations by federal agencies such as the FBI, DEA, or IRS. Federal crimes typically involve serious allegations, including large-scale drug operations, white-collar fraud, or offenses crossing state lines.
Unlike state charges, federal cases are subject to strict sentencing guidelines and are handled in federal court, which requires experienced legal representation to navigate successfully.

The Three Stages of a Federal Criminal Defense Case
- Investigation and Charges: Federal investigations often begin long before charges are filed. If you’re aware of an investigation involving you, it’s critical to secure legal representation immediately to protect your rights.
- Pre-Trial Proceedings: This stage includes hearings on bail, motions to suppress evidence, and plea negotiations. At Guest & Gray, we fight to secure your release and build a strong defense during this critical phase.
Trial and Sentencing: If your case proceeds to trial, our skilled attorneys will advocate on your behalf, challenging the prosecution’s evidence and presenting a compelling defense. In sentencing, we explore options such as downward departures under sentencing guidelines to minimize penalties.
