Knowledgeable Maryland lawyer represents defendants in felony cases
If you are accused of a crime that violates a statute passed by Congress, you will be tried in federal court. If you have been charged with a federal crime, you need an experienced criminal defense attorney on your side. Gary S. Bernstein, P.A. fights to defend the rights of clients. I have built my reputation on getting results. I am intimately familiar with all facets of the federal criminal justice system. I have the knowledge and skill to make sure you understand your legal options and to guide you through the legal process.
Federal prosecution requires an attorney with federal defense experience
There are many ways to end up in federal court. If you are accused of breaking a federal law, you will be tried at the federal level. Crimes against federal agencies such as the Securities and Exchange Commission (e.g., securities fraud), U.S. Treasury (e.g., counterfeiting), Environmental Protection Agency (e.g., toxic waste dumping), Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (e.g., gun-running) and Drug Enforcement Agency (e.g., drug smuggling) are federal crimes. I help clients defend against even the most serious charges.
Additional federal crimes
Defendants are also charged federally when they are accused of crimes that cross state lines, such as moving a kidnapping victim from one state to another. Crimes that use a federal agency, such as the U.S. Postal Service, to perpetrate an illegal act are likewise federal. I understand federal criminal law and all aspects of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, including:
- Federal Bail Reform Act
- Motions to compel discovery
- Federal Sentencing Guidelines
Don’t give the federal prosecutor an added advantage. I handle all types of criminal cases, from white collar crimes to accusations of homicide. No matter what obstacle has been placed in your way, rest assured that Gary S. Bernstein, P.A. will strive diligently to help you overcome it and work tenaciously to attain the best possible result for you.
Going the extra mile to defend your freedom
Nothing is more important to me than your freedom. I make use of all available evidence and procedural tools to ensure that you get the justice you deserve. Through meticulous preparation and firm attention to detail, my efforts are always focused on achieving that goal. I personally speak with witnesses, comb through police records and thoroughly examine the alleged crime scene, if necessary. I also bring in experts who challenge the prosecution and help us prepare trial strategy.
