Federal Crimes Our Lawyers Handle
Our criminal defense lawyers defend clients in the Northern District of Ohio against federal charges such as:
- Murder: We defend clients who are facing first-degree murder charges. This may mean they are alleged to have planned the crime, used poison, committed murder during another criminal defense, or have taken other actions that support a theory they premeditated the crime. We also defend clients facing second-degree murder charges.
- Drug Crimes: We defend people who are facing charges related to the violation of Section 841 of Title 21 of the United States Code. This penalizes the manufacturer, creation, distribution, or dispensing of controlled substances, the possession of chemicals with the intent to manufacture controlled substances, or the use of the Internet to sell drugs.
- Sex Crimes: Federal sex crimes may include possession of child pornography, sex trafficking, sexual abuse of a minor, or aggravated sexual abuse.
- Weapon Crimes: Federal laws prohibit the unlawful possession, sale, or manufacturing of certain types of firearms, explosives, and other weapons or components. We defend clients facing violations of these crimes.
- Fraud: Fraud involves the use of deception to unlawfully obtain benefits, property, or something else of value. Federal fraud charges include mail fraud, wire fraud, bank fraud, health care fraud, tax fraud, aggravated identity theft, and securities fraud.
- Conspiracy: A person can be charged with federal conspiracy if they planned to commit a crime against the U.S. government with others, any of whom may have taken steps to commit the offense.

Cate Purdum was present, attentive, always returned my calls (I had attorneys before who never call you back), answered my questions and never ignored my calls. If I ever need an attorney in the future I will definitely go back to her.

Catherine Meehan did an amazing job. Very responsive, friendly, and obviously very good with words. She kept me out of jail and home with my kiddo. For that I can't ever repay the favor. Much appreciated hope I never need your assistance again but if so I'll definitely give you a call. Thank you again.
