What Are Federal Felonies?

Federal felonies may include crimes that overlap with certain state crimes, such as drug trafficking. In such cases, they will decide whether it is a large enough case to warrant their involvement or if they may leave it to the state to pursue. They may bring charges if the case involves federal property or crosses state lines, for example. Other federal cases are unique to federal laws and agencies and are investigated only by federal agents, including many white collar crimes. Examples may include:


Insider trading, handled by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Wire and mail fraud, handled by the FBI and other agencies.

Racketeering or violating the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act (RICO).

Social security fraud, investigated by the Social Security Administration’s Office of the Inspector General.


These are just a few examples out of many. No matter the federal charges you face, you need a skilled attorney with experience in this area. The stakes are too high to leave to chance.
