Providing Criminal Defense for Those Accused of Federal Crimes
Anyone charged with a federal crime should retain a knowledgeable attorney that understands the federal justice system and is prepared to handle complex criminal proceedings. Federal criminal defense cases are handled differently than state charges. The federal criminal justice system has its own rules of evidence and a unique set of sentencing guidelines. In addition, federal prosecutors often have a unique prosecutorial style.
Federal prosecutors rarely file charges unless they feel they have a strong case. Due to the unique nature of the federal system, it is critical for anyone facing federal charges to have an experienced criminal law attorney working on their behalf that also has a firm grasp of the federal system.
At The Hammer Law Firm in Clayton, Missouri, we vigorously defend the rights of people charged with federal crimes. Our founding attorney, Mark A. Hammer, is a former prosecutor who spent more than a decade prosecuting complex criminal cases including murder, white collar crimes, drug crimes, theft and fraud offenses.
