Federal Criminal Defense. We also frequently defend clients facing federal charges, particularly white-collar offenses. Our team is prepared to take on cases involving bank fraud, credit card fraud, mortgage fraud, securities fraud, and more.

"They were always available quickly, to address my concerns. Having dealt with some law firms before, I really appreciated this."
Steven Raiser's law firm handled my case with excellence throughout the process. I had a SBA EIDL loan that got transferred to the Department of Treasury unexpectedly, and had a 30% penalty added to the amount due, and due very quickly, which was very stressful. After talking with Steven Raiser, and working with Harry Gill, who was absolutely brilliant in working with me and preparing the case, they were able to recall the case to the SBA. They were always available quickly, to address my concerns. Having dealt with some law firms before, I really appreciated this.
Very grateful and appreciative to Steven Raiser and Harry Gill. Great work- Harry -
They treated me wonderfully and helped me out of a bind. I feel that this firm really cares.- Michelle A.
