When you’re facing federal charges, you’re looking at more than a few months in jail. The team at Harrison & Hart, LLC knows how to take on federal prosecutors. We aren’t afraid to stand up and protect your rights.
Why Choose Us
When facing federal criminal charges, you need experienced federal criminal defense attorneys who can tackle complex legal problems and protect your rights.
At Harrison & Hart, LLC, we specialize in crafting proactive defense strategies that give you the best chance to minimize the consequences of a federal conviction.
Federal charges often attract media attention, especially in high-profile cases like federal drug offenses or child pornography allegations. The press can sensationalize these stories, which can affect your personal and professional reputation.
Our federal criminal defense lawyers work tirelessly to protect your privacy and manage public statements, ensuring that sensitive details about your case remain confidential.
Being arrested on federal charges often means initial detention in a federal jail. Navigating the federal bail system can be complicated, with no traditional bail bondsmen and strict conditions based on the charges, your ties to the community, and your financial situation.
Harrison & Hart, LLC will file motions to secure your release, adjust bail conditions, or appeal detention decisions, helping you regain freedom while your case is pending.
Federal investigators are trained to gather evidence and elicit statements that could be used against you. Even innocent remarks can be misinterpreted.
Never speak to federal agents, police, or prosecutors without a skilled federal criminal defense attorney by your side. Harrison & Hart, LLC ensures you exercise your rights and avoid self-incrimination while protecting your legal interests.

Federal Drug Case
Our client had federal drug charges and faced incarceration in a federal prison. After significant pretrial work, and a week-long trial, we obtained an acquittal on all charges.
Facing federal criminal charges can be overwhelming, but Harrison & Hart, LLC is ready to handle even the most complex cases. Our experienced federal defense lawyers guide clients through the legal process, relieve stress, and fight to achieve the best possible outcome for your unique situation.
When you call us, you will speak with a federal criminal defense lawyer who understands your charges. We know the law and can apply it to your case to get you a positive outcome. We frequently work with experts who can give an opinion on your case.
We base our defense on the facts of your situation, not on forcing a narrative that doesn’t fit. Our attorneys listen carefully, explore your intentions, and craft strategies to demonstrate innocence or reduce potential penalties under federal sentencing guidelines.
Each federal case is unique, and we tailor our approach to your circumstances. For example, if you face federal drug trafficking charges, we may seek alternatives like substance abuse treatment to avoid prison time whenever possible.
Some law firms outsource the toughest federal cases, but our attorneys handle them in-house. We have extensive experience in federal courts, know the prosecutors, magistrates, and judges, and are prepared to navigate the most challenging legal matters head-on.
Our legal team doesn’t shy away from demanding cases. In fact, we relish them. We attack federal cases head-on with our extensive knowledge of federal laws and procedures.
Our federal criminal defense lawyers represent clients across a wide range of federal offenses, including:
Our federal drug crime attorneys defend clients charged with possession, trafficking, and distribution of controlled substances. We carefully review the evidence, challenge procedural errors, and, when possible, negotiate alternatives to federal sentencing. Our goal is to minimize penalties and protect your future.
Facing federal sex crime charges can have serious consequences, including long-term imprisonment and registration requirements. We provide aggressive representation, protect your rights during investigations, and develop tailored defense strategies to challenge the government’s case.
RICO and racketeering cases are highly complex, involving allegations of organized criminal activity. Our attorneys navigate these cases with precision, scrutinizing evidence and witnesses to dismantle the prosecution’s claims. We fight to protect your liberty and reputation throughout the process.
White collar charges such as fraud, embezzlement, and financial misconduct carry severe federal penalties. We defend against these allegations by examining financial records, challenging procedural errors, and consulting with expert witnesses to build a strong defense.
Violations of federal firearms laws can result in significant jail time and fines. Our defense team carefully evaluates each case, challenges illegal searches or seizures, and pursues strategies to reduce or dismiss charges when possible.
Federal conspiracy charges can involve multiple parties and complex legal theories. We investigate the evidence, clarify your role, and challenge overreaching allegations to ensure your defense is fully protected.
Money laundering cases often involve sophisticated financial transactions and federal scrutiny. Our attorneys analyze records, trace funds, and challenge the prosecution’s evidence to defend against potential convictions and harsh federal penalties.

Our Part in the Process
Facing federal criminal charges can be overwhelming, stressful, and confusing. The stakes are high, and you likely have questions about what will happen next: Will you need to appear in court? Will you remain in federal custody while awaiting trial? Could a judge impose the maximum sentence?
While we cannot erase the charges, Harrison & Hart, LLC can handle the most stressful aspects of your case, guide you through each step, and fight aggressively to protect your rights and freedom.
After you are released from federal custody, attending every court appearance can be exhausting and disruptive. Our federal criminal defense attorneys can appear at most hearings on your behalf, helping you avoid unnecessary court proceedings. We gather information through phone calls or secure video consultations, preparing thoroughly so you are ready only when absolutely necessary. If you must meet with investigators or attend a hearing, we guide you in advance, ensuring you understand the process and know exactly what to expect.
In federal court, the burden of proof is on the government—they must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you committed the alleged crime. Our attorneys scrutinize every piece of evidence, challenge improper procedures, and identify weaknesses in the prosecution’s case. By holding the government accountable, we create opportunities for favorable plea agreements or, when appropriate, fight to have your charges dismissed entirely.
Every federal case is unique, and we tailor our approach to your specific circumstances. From negotiating reduced sentences and alternative penalties to leveraging legal defenses applicable to your charges, we develop strategies to achieve the best possible outcome. Our goal is not just to react to the case but to anticipate the prosecution’s moves and proactively protect your rights.
Federal charges carry serious long-term consequences, including prison time, fines, and damage to your reputation. Our attorneys focus on more than just the immediate legal battle—we aim to protect your freedom, financial stability, and personal life. Every decision we make is geared toward preserving your future while navigating the complex federal system.
