Orlando RICO Defense Lawyer
Call (407) 708-9127 to Let Our Experienced Attorney Protect Your Rights & Freedom
The Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act was originally created to investigate the Mafia and organized crime in general, but now this law applies to a variety of dishonest and fraudulent white-collar matters. RICO investigations are led by federal prosecutors and law enforcement, which means a conviction will result in serious criminal penalties, including time in federal prison.
If you are accused of federal racketeering charges in Florida, The Wiseman Law Firm can provide knowledgeable and aggressive legal representation to ensure you obtain the outcome and justice you deserve. With over 20 years of trial-tested legal experience, our Orlando RICO attorney understands who to effectively fight the feds throughout the legal process.
Understanding RICO Charges
Federal investigators must establish a pattern of racketeering activity—that is connected to their enterprise—to file RICO charges in the United States. Common types of enterprises include businesses, corporations, a crime family, a street gang, a drug cartel, or even a political party.
A person must commit at least two “predicate crimes” through the enterprise within the last 10 years to violate RICO law. A conviction for RICO is punishable by a prison term of up to 20 years or a life sentence (especially if a serious felony was involved) and a fine not exceeding $250,000 or twice the profits obtained through the crime.
Common types of predicate crimes include:
- Fraud
- Racketeering
- Money laundering
- Embezzlement
- Bribery
- Counterfeiting
- Gambling
- Extorsion
- Robbery
- Kidnapping
- Slavery
- Murder
- Terrorism
