Toledo White Collar Crime Lawyer
Effective, Detail-Oriented Defense from Patituce & Associates
“White collar crime” is a term used to describe crimes that are financially motivated and usually take place in the corporate sphere (hence “white collar”). These charges are almost always complex and often hinge upon an alleged paper trail of evidence and large quantities of data. Not every firm is equipped to handle these cases, so it is highly recommended that you carefully consider your prospective counsel before moving forward with your defense.
At Patituce & Associates, our Toledo white-collar attorneys have more than three decades of experience in the criminal defense practice area, including with financial crime cases. Our team members have navigated trials on both sides of the courtroom and have an intimate understanding of how the state of Ohio and the federal government pursue white-collar crime convictions. We’re ready to provide vigilant and exacting counsel and ensure that—throughout every stage of your case—your rights remain a priority.
If you’ve been accused of committing a white-collar crime, contact the Toledo white-collar crime attorneys at Patituce and Associates.
What Are Types of White Collar Crimes?
White-collar crimes consist of different forms of theft and fraud that often involve high-level financial transactions among major corporate entities. Often, those accused are believed to be falsifying information or misrepresenting themselves for financial gain.
Our firm is ready to handle white-collar crime cases involving:
- Mortgage fraud
- Embezzlement
- Counterfeiting
- Tax fraud
- RICO
- Securities fraud
- Theft from business
- Forging, selling, or distributing forged identification cards
Much like theft crimes, the severity of a white-collar crime charge often relies on the value of the money or property that was allegedly stolen. Sometimes these numbers are speculative—and inflated—because the investigative agency isn’t sure where the money went. At our firm, we will consult with experts and accountants when necessary to evaluate the evidence against our clients and ensure that clear and concise fact are ready to be presented to the judge and jury. Do not hesitate to start mounting a compelling defense against these allegations.

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.
