Tennessee Federal Defense Attorney
By the time they indict, federal authorities typically have a comprehensive case. It is therefore vital to get representation from an experienced attorney as soon as you realize you are a target or receive a subpoena to appear before a federal grand jury.
Few criminal defense attorneys in Western Tennessee can boast the level of experience in federal grand jury proceedings owned by attorney Jeffrey Jones. Contact us to set up a free and fully confidential consultation with Mr. Jones.
About Federal Grand Jury Proceedings
Grand juries are groups of citizens charged with deciding whether a person should be charged with an offense. Federal grand juries are typically called for high-profile investigations, such as drug trafficking, white collar crimes, and computer sex crimes.
Though a lawyer cannot accompany you in a jury room to speak on your behalf, your lawyer can have a tremendous effect on reducing the chance of an indictment. At Law Office of Jeffrey Jones, we can:
- Discover the nature of the investigation, determining whether you are a target of investigation or a witness
- Negotiate with federal authorities about the investigation, the production of evidence, and perhaps make a deal that precludes an indictment
- Counsel and advise you before the grand jury proceedings, during recesses, and after your testimony
- Mount our own investigation into the alleged crimes
Too often, people are indicted for crimes other than the original incident that spurred the investigation, but because of how they dealt with federal investigators. Even the savviest individuals can find themselves with perjury or lying to federal authorities. Securing an experienced attorney immediately can protect you from such a fate.
