Protecting Your Reputation, Career, and Future


White collar crimes are typically non-violent offenses that involve deception, fraud, or abuse of trust for financial gain. Despite the lack of physical harm, these charges are treated very seriously under Michigan law and can result in felony convictions, steep fines, restitution, asset forfeiture, and lengthy prison sentences. Just as damaging, a conviction for a white collar crime can ruin your personal and professional reputation.
