White-collar crime, a term first coined in 1939, has evolved significantly in its scope and complexity. Today, it encompasses a wide variety of non-violent crimes committed for financial gain. At Teakell Law, our deep understanding of white-collar crime stems not only from extensive experience in the field but also from a unique blend of expertise that sets us apart.
As a former Federal and State Prosecutor, and a consistently awarded member of prestigious legal circles—including Super Lawyers, Leaders in Law, and the National Trial Lawyers Association Top Trial Attorneys in Texas from 2007 to 2023—our founder’s insight into the nuances of white-collar crime is unparalleled. Highlighted in Forbes and Fortune Magazines and recognized as one of the Top Ten Visionaries of Tomorrow, our approach is forward-thinking and comprehensive.
Common Types of White Collar Crime
White-collar crimes can range from fraud and embezzlement to insider trading and cybercrime. Each type presents unique challenges and requires specialized knowledge to understand and defend against. Our experience in Dallas, TX, has shown us the most common manifestations of these crimes and how they affect our community.
Legal Defenses in White Collar Crime
Defending against white-collar crime accusations requires a nuanced understanding of the law and a strategic approach to the evidence. Common defenses include proving lack of intent, demonstrating entrapment, or challenging the validity of evidence. Our history of success in these cases is a testament to our strategic defense capabilities.
The Impact of White Collar Crime on Communities
The repercussions of white-collar crime extend far beyond the courtroom. These crimes can undermine trust in institutions, rob communities of resources, and even impact economic stability. Recognizing this, Teakell Law is committed to not only defending those accused but also to contributing to a broader understanding of these crimes.
