White Collar Crime connotes a variety of frauds, schemes, corruptions, and commericial offenses committed by business persons, con artists, and public officials. White collar crime refers to a broad range of offenses that have cheating and dishonesty as their central element. Consumer fraud, bribery, and stock manipulation are examples of white collar crimes. Attorneys who handle white collar crime cases represent clients who have been charged with committing non-violent, business-related criminal offenses for financial gain -- including embezzlement, securities fraud, tax evasion, and money laundering. White collar crime attorneys represent individuals or corporations at each stage of a criminal case.
