Cybercrimes are among our nation’s most common — and complicated — legal issues. Local police departments and federal agencies have created special “cyber units” to hunt down predators and criminals online. These authorities also lure likely suspects into taking action that results in criminal charges and prosecution.
If you’re facing cybercrime charges — such as those stemming from identity theft, online stalking, cybersex offenses, or cyberterrorism, among others — you can be certain that prosecutors and investigators will prosecute your case aggressively. The penalties are serious. Those convicted find themselves facing heavy fines and prison sentences, as well as reduced employment and housing prospects.

This means that you might be subject to prosecution in federal court and exposed to its severe sentencing guidelines. In addition, courts at every level are keen to make an example of cybercriminals. They mete out strict punishments in the hopes of deterring others from committing such offenses. This is why it is important to reach out as quickly as possible to a qualified defense attorney.
