Wise Laws has Jackson defense attorneys on staff possessing a superior understanding of the complicated laws and issues applying to Jackson Racketeer Influenced and Jackson Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) litigation. We defend persons facing Jackson racketeering charges in Jackson.
Several of our Jackson attorneys have worked previously as Jackson prosecutors in various cities across Jackson MS 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 Jackson racketeer are stiff and may include up to 20 years time in Jackson 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 Jackson MS 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 Jackson attorneys experienced on all aspects of the Jackson laws applicable to racketeering.
Wise Laws has a successful history of winning in RICO Jackson defense cases and represents people facing Jackson Mississippi racketeering and other serious charges. The Jackson attorneys at Wise Laws know the applicable laws and legislation, understand issues relating to judges, Jackson prosecutors, Jackson district attorneys and the technology used against in the defense of racketeering or Jackson organized crime related charges.
