White Collar Crime

Salt Lake City White Collar Crime Attorney

LAW OFFICE OF KIMBERLY J. TRUPIANO

As a criminal defense and civil litigation attorney based in Salt Lake City, Utah, Kim provides high-quality, professional representation for individuals charged with a white collar crime. Kim's strong skills as a legal writer and litigator enable her to present her clients' cases in a manner that gives them the best chance of a positive resolution to their cases.

What is white collar crime?

A white collar crime is most often a non-violent criminal offense that relies on deception. Among the crimes classified as a white collar crime are the following

  • Banking Fraud
  • Blackmail
  • Breach of Fiduciary Duty
  • Bribery
  • Check Fraud
  • Communications Fraud
  • Conspiracy
  • Counterfeiting
  • Deceptive Practices (i.e. Theft by Deception)
  • Embezzlement
  • Forgery
  • Fraud (banking fraud, communications fraud, identity fraud, and mail and wire fraud)
  • Identity theft
  • Mail and wire fraud (including communications such as facsimile, telex, modem, and Internet transmissions)
  • Money laundering
  • Racketeering, RICO
  • And other White Collar Crimes

Most of the same concepts and legal doctrine apply to white collar crime as with the more violent, conventional crimes. However, white collar crimes are often much more factually complex and carry with them a number of complicated legal issues that must be resolved.

Kim conducts a thorough interview and gets the facts from her clients. The penalties and fines for a white collar crime can be difficult to comprehend, so she explains the possibilities in depth to her clients. She evaluates any government investigations that might be occurring and looks for all viable legal and factual arguments to raise for her client. Whether a client is a victim or is charged with a white collar crime, it is important for her to investigate the victim's accounting and business practices as well as the defendant's practices to understand possible arguments of offsetting liability.

Protect Your Assets from Attachment or Forfeiture

Additionally, Kim does all she can to protect her clients' assets by taking advantage of appropriate remedies or their defenses such as notices of lis pendens, constructive trust claims, preliminary injunctions, restraining orders on assets, writs of attachment, and forfeiture.

If you are a victim of or are suspected of committing white collar criminal activity, it is important that you contact a lawyer immediately. As your attorney, Kimberly J. Trupiano will represent you and your interests effectively and aggressively, and make sure you receive fair and just treatment. Call her law office by phone at 801.910.7704 to arrange for your free initial consultation. She is available in the evenings and on weekends by appointment.
