Bend White-Collar Crimes Lawyer
Providing Experienced Defense Who Facing White Collar Crimes in Deschutes County
You may have heard the term "white-collar crime" before, but you may be unsure about which types of crimes really fall under this category. White-collar crimes are often associated with fraud and theft and typically lack a violent element.
White-collar crimes are viewed constantly by state prosecutors as serious crimes. They can result in extensive fines, forfeiture of assets, the necessity to pay restitution, conditional supervised release, and even imprisonment. There is entirely no reason not to take these federal crimes seriously. If convicted, there is a strong likelihood that state prosecutors will impose some or all of these penalties.
If you’re facing this type of criminal charge, we can help. Our Bend white-collar criminal defense attorneys have extensive experience handling white-collar criminal charges. We can use this foundation to help mitigate your blame or avoid a conviction entirely. When you need skilled legal representation, call Ward Grover.

What Are The Two Most Common White Collar Crimes?
Two of the most common types of white-collar crimes are embezzlement and fraud. These cases tend to be very complicated and require dedicated attention because penalties can be steep.
In addition to very high fines, you may also be facing a prison sentence, probation, and restitution. The particulars of your case will determine what you are charged with and the penalties. Regardless of what you are charged with, you can be sure that prosecutors will aggressively pursue your conviction.
Is Insider Trading a Corporate Crime?
Insider trading is considered a corporate crime. Insider trading by employees from a corporation may be held liable if the following are true
- the employee must perform the criminal act within the scope of his employment
- and the corporation must be an intended beneficiary of the act
