local state courts and you need to be prepared to fight an altogether
more ferocious battle.
You
need a New York Federal criminal lawyer right away.
Federal law is generally "the same" all over the country, but it
would be absurd to discount the value of having an attorney who
is intimately familiar with the day to day workings of the court
in which you or someone you care about is being prosecuted.
Aside from the value of having counsel who is familiar with
judges and prosecutors, the fact is that there are local rules
imposed by individual judges in every courthouse that will not
be known even by an experienced Federal lawyer who generally
practices elsewhere. To be sure these rules can be
learned, but do you want your lawyer spending his time (and your
money) learning or spending his time representing you?
Federal cases
usually require an enormous amount of attention to be handled
properly. If we are unable because of previous commitments
to accept your matter we can assist you in finding a suitably
qualified federal criminal attorney who we know to have
experience in the Southern or Eastern District of New York.
For many reasons, the
current Federal Sentencing Guidelines (still influential despite recent
United States Supreme Court rulings) have created a world in Federal
Criminal Court in which those accused of Federal Crimes face horrific
prison sentences often vastly out of proportion to what most people
would imagine fair. Especially with respect to drug cases, the
results created by the Federal Sentencing Guidelines are often
heartbreakingly severe. Some Federal judges have simply refused to
accept drug cases in protest of the Federal Sentencing guidelines.
