NYC Federal Criminal Lawyer
NYC is one of the busiest spots for federal criminal investigations. From financial crimes on Wall Street to smuggling out of the Port of New York or airports to major drug offenses, there is a wide range of offenses that are prosecuted in the U.S. District Courts for the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York.
Federal rules of criminal procedure and process are different than those in state courts. It is important for your attorney to have experience in and an understanding of cases prosecuted in the federal criminal justice system.

Information on NYC Federal Crimes
Types of Federal Crimes
The U.S. Code contains many different federal crimes that a person may face charges for. Many have to do with allegations that cross state or international borders. This covers more than a person might think – for instance, an email containing child pornography sent by a person in NYC to a person in Brooklyn goes through servers and systems in other states or, sometimes, other countries.
Federal Criminal Defense Attorneys
Criminal offenses in federal law include offenses related to:
- Drugs
- Financial Crimes
- Child Pornography
- Human Trafficking
- Racketeering
- Weapons
- Illegal Reentry
- Terrorism
- Kidnapping
- Obstruction of Justice
One of the most common charges is for Conspiracy. If you are accused of acting in concert with others to commit anything illegal under federal law, you may face charges of conspiracy, and face the same penalties as you would if charged with the underlying offense.
Federal Investigations and Charges in NYC
Some agencies are tasked with investigating certain types of offenses. Others have broader jurisdiction. Agencies include:
- Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)
- Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA)
- Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
- Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)
- Environment Protection Agency (EPA), Office of the Inspector General
- Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
- Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF)
The lead prosecutor in a federal prosecution is the United States Attorney. The state of New York has four districts. The city is divided into two of these. Kings County is in the Eastern District, and New York County is in the Southern District. Each district has a U.S. Attorney. An assistant U.S. Attorney will prosecute in the courtroom.
Federal Criminal Law Help
A person charged with a federal offense faces significant challenges. The U.S. government has effectively infinite resources to investigate and prosecute suspects. Many federal offenses carry mandatory minimum sentences, meaning the accused, if convicted, may face decades in prison regardless of whatever mitigating circumstances may exist.
However, there are often options available to the accused. The sooner a person facing charges contacts a skilled lawyer, the better the chances of a more positive resolution.
