Scottsdale Federal Crimes Defense Attorney

Defending Your Rights on the Federal Level

In general, if you are charged with a crime on the state level, you will be prosecuted in state court, and if convicted, you will face time in county jail or state prison. There are some crimes, however, which are illegal on both the state and federal level, and it is possible for you to be charged with a federal crime in addition to a state criminal charge. 

Being charged with a federal offense is a very different process, and you will need a criminal defense lawyer who is not only permitted to practice in federal courts, as Attorney Craig is, but also one who can match the prosecution conducting the investigation, which will likely have extensive resources, such as the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation), CIA (Central Intelligence Agency), or DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration). Another difference between federal crimes and state crimes is the penalties. A federal conviction means that if you are sentenced to prison, it will be in a federal prison, and the fines are likely much more steep. 

Some of the most common types of federal crimes which the Law Offices of Randall J. Craig have defended are:

  • Bank fraud
  • Crimes committed on federal property
  • Certain crimes committed across state or country boundaries
  • Child pornography
  • Sex crimes committed against children
  • Hacking
  • Money laundering
  • Firearms trafficking

Attorney Craig is well-known among Arizona State and federal courts for his extensive knowledge of criminal law and aggressive defense of his clients' rights. He has been recognized and awarded by multiple organizations, and is completely dedicated to providing you with the best legal representation and legal counsel possible.

    “I truly believe you are the best lawyer around!”

    Dear Randall:

    I am sure you do not remember me, but you represented me in my case. I was a heroin addict and have not been clean for over 4 years. I don’t think I have ever properly thanked you. You really fought hard for me and thanks to you believing in me, I really have turned my life around. There is not a day that goes by I do not live with regret. However I really am working hard on that thing we call “forgiveness”. Thank you for everything. I truly believe you are the best lawyer around!

    Mr. Craig and his office staff are a team of experienced, caring, and responsive professionals. As an "out of state" client, Mr. Craig was able to obtain a very positive outcome to my case -- without my presence in court. I am truly grateful to Mr. Craig and his staff for their support. I would highly recommend Mr. Craig, without reservation, and feel very fortunate to have had the benefit of his representation. Thank you to Mr. Craig and Staff!

    “His staff kept me informed, Mr. Craig kept me calm, and in the end he was able to negotiate the right deal for me. He has simple flat rates and doesn't bill you for things like copies and phone calls.”
    Having never committed a crime, ending up in jail was a humiliating experience for me. His staff kept me informed, Mr. Craig kept me calm, and in the end he was able to negotiate the right deal for me. He has simple flat rates and doesn't bill you for things like copies and phone calls.

    Thank you for all that you did. Because of you, I have another opportunity at life. I will use this time to better myself….get educated, make plan, goals, ambitions. Thank you for doing an outstanding job. Nothing but love!
