Baltimore, Maryland Federal Criminal Defense Attorneys

Lawyers for Federal Charges and White Collar Crimes in Baltimore

At Silverman Thompson, our elite team of criminal defense lawyers can provide representation in cases involving white collar crimes and government investigations for other federal crimes. We have represented top public officials, corporate executives, military officers, federal law enforcement agents, and professional athletes, as well as leading organizations.

Federal investigations are often complex, and they can have serious and potentially long-term implications for the people and organizations involved. Given these issues, it is crucial to work with attorneys who have a deep understanding of the federal system and who themselves have handled many federal investigations and trials. Our lawyers are well-positioned to obtain the best results for our clients.

Our team, which includes former federal prosecutors and public defenders and a retired federal judge, draws upon decades of experience. Because of our exceptional roster of high-quality, experienced lawyers, our firm has been retained in cases that garner national and international attention. From high-profile cases representing prominent public figures, including the former Mayor of Baltimore and a U.S. President, to sensitive, private matters, we bring unparalleled commitment to each client.

While cases may involve different factual and legal nuances, our team is committed to offering each client our knowledge, judgment, and zealous advocacy.

Our Team Approach

Based on the nature and scope of the matter, Silverman Thompson draws from our group of dedicated white-collar defense attorneys. Our lawyers have a collective wealth of experience in prosecution, defense, and the justice system, and we are deeply committed to defending the rights of our clients. We take a team approach to every case, ensuring that the right strategies and the best decisions are implemented at every stage.

Our team has investigated thousands of criminal matters and taken hundreds of cases to trial. Because the majority of our white-collar defense team members have served as federal prosecutors, have subsequently negotiated on behalf of hundreds of clients with federal prosecutors, and have appeared in court many times, we have built up key relationships in the arena of federal criminal prosecutions.

Success in High-Profile Federal Criminal Cases

Our team has been involved in many landmark cases that have been the subject of documentaries and featured in the national and international news media. This experience gives us a unique perspective on helping our clients navigate federal criminal cases.

Our deep experience has prepared us to represent clients in cases involving issues such as wire fraud, healthcare fraud, money laundering, internet crimes, credit card offenses, billing and contracting fraud, pandemic relief-related fraud, identity theft, criminal antitrust, and obstruction of justice.
