Savannah White Collar Crime Attorney
The term “white collar” sounds refined and non-threatening unless you are facing the charge in court. The reality is that white collar crimes are serious offenses and must be handled with care. A conviction can mean huge fines, prison time, and probation. And the crime will remain on your record, making future employment more difficult to obtain.
But there is always hope. It is important to build a strong defense to prevent an accusation from turning into a conviction. At the Claiborne Firm, we have experience with many different white collar crimes. We will help you tell your side of the story in court, and help build a strong defense.

Make Sure Your Rights Are Protected
One of the most important jobs for any defense attorney is making sure that their clients do not have their legal rights violated by the state.
The right to remain silent is important to for anyone to remember when dealing with law enforcement. Innocent people can incriminate themselves if they speak with law enforcement without an attorney, as there are times that an innocuous statement can relate to one of the details of the case and lead to an arrest.
