Drug Crimes

California Drug Offenses

Los Angeles Drug crimes in California involve the possession, sale, transportation, manufacturing, transportation for sale of an unlawful narcotic, money laundering, drug trafficking and distribution. Los Angeles narcotics crimes and Southern California drug offenses are the unlawful use or possession of narcotics including cocaine in its base form (crack), marijuana, methamphetamine (speed), heroin, LSD, cocaine, PCP, ecstasy, as well as unauthorized use, possession or sale of prescription drugs such as Vicodin or Oxycontin.

The California warrant attorneys at the Kraut Law Group are experienced in handling Los Angeles warrants and Southern California warrants. They will work to have the warrant cancelled or recalled and quashed by the court, allowing you to remain free from custody. As a former prosecutor, Los Angeles criminal defense attorney Michael Kraut specializes in providing an aggressive defense for Southern California warrants. Judges and prosecutors recognize Mr. Kraut as a top-notch Los Angeles warrant attorney.
Fraud

Many charges can revolve around fraud, including credit card fraud, insurance fraud, identity fraud, and Internet fraud, among others. Every fraud case is different. Most of our criminal defense attorneys have extensive experience and have had much success defending many kinds of fraud charges.

While identify theft charges predominate this group, computer hacking, computer fraud, and other allegations of fraud perpetuated through a computer can be called computer crimes. All require a technically aware and detailed computer defense lawyer for you to be effectively defended.
White Collar Crime

While there is no fixed definition for what constitutes a white collar crime, the term is generally used to refer to a number of non-violent crimes that are grouped together. These crimes typically have cheating or dishonesty as their common element, and the cases are frequently complex and technical. Typically they are financial crimes.

Not every criminal defense attorney or criminal law firm is qualified to defend white collar criminal charges, due to the complex and unique nature of these crimes. However, all of our criminal lawyers have the experience and knowledge to provide a powerful and effective legal defense for charges of this nature. At times there can be questionable evidence against the client, which doesn’t prove beyond a reasonable doubt that our client is guilty. If this is the case, our criminal attorneys will be there to exploit every weakness in the prosecution’s case. If you’ve already confessed we may be able to get your confession thrown out of court, depending on the circumstances. We will explore every avenue in minimizing or eliminating the penalties you could be facing.
