Sophisticated White Collar Legal Defense

Doing business in the 21st century means contending and complying with a raft of regulatory guidelines put in place to ensure that corporate fiduciaries manage and conduct their affairs with integrity and transparency. When that integrity or transparency is called into question, Odin Feldman Pittleman‘s criminal defense attorneys are poised to defend you – and your reputation – by leveraging their knowledge, their understanding of white-collar investigations, and extensive trial experience to protect your rights and work towards the most beneficial outcome.

Our northern Virginia criminal defense team – which comprises well-respected former prosecutors – is sensitive to our clients’ issues and zealous in their representation. Whether you believe you may be under investigation or are nearing preindictment, we work diligently to protect your rights. We appear regularly in the Virginia Circuit Courts, general district courts, and juvenile and courts – particularly in Fairfax, Loudoun, Prince William, Arlington and Alexandria – and in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. Our familiarity with these courts, investigators, local prosecutors’ offices and law enforcement agencies allows us to assist our clients as they navigate the criminal justice system. The courts recognize our abilities and have appointed us to handle high-profile cases requiring the highest quality defense while guarding our clients’ privacy and reputation.
