THE BEST LAWYER ANYONE COULD ASK FOR.

The BEST LAWYER ANYONE COULD ASK FOR!!! Todd changed our lives! He’s not JUST a lawyer representing us for a case. Todd and his office have become Family. When we entered his office in August of 2022, we entered with such anxiety, uncertainty, and so much stress. Honestly we were very lost. My husband and I felt alone. How could a lawyer who didn’t know us, know our family, know our background represents us, When this could change our lives for the next 5-7years that my husband was facing in Federal jail. By the time our free consultation was over with Todd, we left his office at ease. All our questions were answered and we had a sense of relief.

New Orleans Grand Jury Subpoenas

February 18, 2025

New Orleans Grand Jury Subpeonas

AS SEEN ON major news outlets nationwide, grand jury subpoenas in New Orleans are no joke. If you’re on our website, it’s because you, or someone you know, may be facing legal trouble – and needs top rated legal representation. We are recognized as a premier, and award winning, New York Federal criminal defense law firm, with Over 50 Years Of Combined Experience. Regardless of where your case is, our team has the resources and know-how to help you navigate the intricate world of New Orleans Grand Jury subpoenas.

What Is a Grand Jury Subpoena?

GRAND JURY 101
A grand jury subpoena is a legal document compelling you to provide testimony or produce evidence in connection with a federal investigation. According to the U.S. Courts official website, grand juries can comprise 16 to 23 individuals who evaluate potential criminal charges. They decide whether there is probable cause to believe a crime has occurred.

WE UNDERSTAND this can feel terrifying. Once you’re served with a subpoena, you have limited time to respond. If you ignore it or fail to comply, you risk serious legal consequences. That’s where we come in. Our elite legal team is here to help you and protect your rights. Give us a call to see what your options are today.

Penalties and Potential Crimes

Over 50 Years Of Combined Experience have taught us that criminal penalties can range from hefty fines to long-term imprisonment. Depending on the alleged crime under scrutiny—such as white collar crimes, fraud, drug offenses, or other violations—federal charges often carry more severe sentencing guidelines.

We’re talking about potential fallout like:

  • Financial Fines: Ranging from thousands to millions of dollars depending on the offense.
  • Probation or Supervised Release: Possible for first-time, non-violent offenders.
  • Prison Time: Felony convictions, especially federal, can result in years behind bars.
  • Collateral Consequences: A criminal record can limit your employment prospects, housing options, and more.

Regardless of the complexity, if you’re under investigation, it’s vital you speak to an EXPERIENCED criminal defense attorney who understands grand jury procedures in New Orleans.

Strategies of How We’d Defend You

STEP 1: EVALUATING THE SUBPOENA

We’ll carefully review the scope of the subpoena: Is it demanding documents, testimony, or both? Have you been labeled a target or a witness? We look at every detail to help you avoid pitfalls. Reach out to us and allow us to go over your case with you and provide a thorough plan in which we will proceed. We are available 24/7, to provide a risk free consultation, give us a call today. 

STEP 2: CHALLENGING UNREASONABLE DEMANDS

If you’re accused, we’ll see if the subpoena is overly broad or infringing on your rights. When necessary, we file motions to quash or limit compliance, ensuring the government doesn’t overreach. See more about grand jury best practices at the Department of Justice official website.

STEP 3: PREPARING YOU FOR TESTIMONY

If you must testify, our legal team—dedicated and top rated—will coach you thoroughly. We make sure you understand:

  • Your Fifth Amendment rights
  • How to respond clearly without self-incrimination
  • Common prosecution traps and how to avoid them

STEP 4: NEGOTIATING WITH PROSECUTORS

In some circumstances, cooperating can lead to favorable outcomes. Our firm has defended some of the toughest cases across the country. We can help you negotiate immunity deals or reduced charges if that benefits your situation. Regardless of the stage, we can strategize a plan aligned with your best interests. Our team of attorneys have experience in fighting, and winning, some of the nations toughest cases.

STEP 5: FIGHTING FOR DISMISSAL OR REDUCTION
