Wise Laws has Baltimore defense attorneys on staff possessing a superior understanding of the complicated laws and issues applying to Baltimore Racketeer Influenced and Baltimore Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) litigation. We defend persons facing Baltimore racketeering charges in Baltimore.
Several of our Baltimore attorneys have worked previously as Baltimore prosecutors in various cities across Baltimore MD and have strategic insights of RICO trials, including the process of investigations, and how to defend those charged with racketeering.
Our background includes knowledge of and experience with:
The maximum penalties for a person charged as a Baltimore racketeer are stiff and may include up to 20 years time in Baltimore prison and enormous fines. In addition to this, forfeiture of the business, personal holdings and any monies accumulated from the criminal activity are usually to be expected in settlement. These cases do not end in criminal court, since they are often re-tried in civil courts where plaintiffs are permitted to bring actions resulting in triple damage awards.
Government investigators are highly trained at uncovering racketeering schemes and will manipulate juries to believe that greed is the only factor - thus negating any sympathetic feeling from the jury. Once a Baltimore MD racketeering scheme is uncovered, inexperienced trial defense attorneys often miss critical sections in the law that might be applicable in specific situations. Wise Laws has a team of Baltimore attorneys experienced on all aspects of the Baltimore laws applicable to racketeering.
Wise Laws has a successful history of winning in RICO Baltimore defense cases and represents people facing Baltimore Maryland racketeering and other serious charges. The Baltimore attorneys at Wise Laws know the applicable laws and legislation, understand issues relating to judges, Baltimore prosecutors, Baltimore district attorneys and the technology used against in the defense of racketeering or Baltimore organized crime related charges.
