Conspiracy Cases

Conspiracy can involve anything from a poorly planned bank robbery to a sophisticated Mafia cartel. A person who acts as part of a conspiracy risks far greater penalties if caught than a person who acts alone. Trial Lawyer Butler handles cases that involve:

• Drug conspiracy
• Bank fraud
• Organized crime on the internet
• White collar "inside jobs"
• Robbery

Conspiracy Charges

If you are convicted of conspiracy, even if you are only convicted of planning the crime, you may face the same penalty as the person who actually committed the crime. With Federal drug cases, prosecutors use conspiracy charges in two ways--to add the penalty for participating in a conspiracy, and to increase the penalty by increasing the quantity of drugs involved. Even if you only had a small amount on your person, through a conspiracy charge, you could be charged with possessing and trafficking greater amounts.

With so much at stake, you need a lawyer who knows the system. Contact the law office of William Butler to talk to a lawyer with substantial criminal trial experience. In practice since 1986, attorney William Butler knows how to handle serious criminal charges.
