Long Island Federal Criminal Defense Lawyer Jason Bassett Discusses the Federal Criminal Defense Process

Long Island federal criminal defense lawyer Jason Bassett releases a new article (https://jbassettlaw.com/practice-items/federal-defense/) that explains the federal criminal defense process in New York. The lawyer mentions that federal crimes are prosecuted under federal criminal law and not under state criminal law. A federal criminal offense means that the accused is up against prosecutors of the federal government.

According to the Long Island federal criminal defense lawyer, “As a primary hub for many federal criminal prosecutions, New York sees a myriad of different offenses prosecuted in the United States District Courts for the Eastern and Southern Districts of New York. As soon as you learn that you are the target of a federal investigation or a prosecution for federal crimes, you must hire legal counsel to protect you and your legal rights.”

The lawyer explains that federal criminal charges can often result in sentences that could have a significant effect on an accused's life. Federal criminals can spend decades in federal prison. Federal criminal charges can be difficult to defend because they are often closely watched and investigated for many years before being arrested.

Attorney Jason Bassett mentions that the United States has many federal crimes. These include racketeering and drug distribution, as well as money laundering, homicides, counterfeiting, conspiracy, and firearm offenses.

Attorney Bassett says that federal criminal defense in New York can differ depending on the case. There are some common steps that can be followed in the federal criminal defense process: investigation, arrest, initial appearance, arraignment or indictment, discovery and plea bargaining, pretrial motions, trial, and sentencing.

The defense attorney also explains that federal sentencing follows specific guidelines that judges must consider. The U. S. Sentencing Commission is an independent agency that creates sentencing guidelines. These guidelines provide guidelines that define ranges for ensuring fairness and consistency in sentencing.

Lastly, attorney Bassett emphasizes the importance of having a skilled defense lawyer when facing federal charges. An experienced lawyer may be able to help the defendant protect their rights and their freedom.
