Federal Criminal Defense

Defense in federal investigations and prosecutions, including grand jury matters and complex federal charges.

Federal criminal cases are different from state cases. The rules of procedure are different. The sentencing guidelines are different. And the consequences are often more severe. Brad Bailey knows this system from the inside, having served as a federal prosecutor.

We defend clients in federal investigations, grand jury proceedings, and federal trials. From the first contact with federal agents through sentencing and appeal, we protect our clients' rights at every stage.
