Criminal Defense Lawyer: Federal Court Experience

Are you being investigated by the federal government? Have you been charged with a federal crime? Attorney Tonda L. Curry spent 12 years as a federal prosecutor where she gained in-depth knowledge of how federal courts look at criminal law. Our Tyler, Texas, law firm now uses that knowledge to prepare strong criminal defenses for people charged with federal crimes.

White Collar Crime: We represent people who are accused of being involved in crimes, such as credit card fraud, forgery, bank fraud, bankruptcy fraud, tax fraud and loan fraud, among others. It is important to contact an attorney as soon as you are being investigated. Contacting a defense attorney early in the proceedings gives you more time to prepare a stronger case. Attorney Tonda L. Curry can start working aggressively for you today.

Environmental Crimes: Frequently, our clients do not even realize anything is wrong until they are contacted by the federal government about an environmental crime. We handle cases involving environmental issues, such as illegal dumping or contamination. We have represented clients accused of violating the Clean Water Act and have thorough knowledge of this technical area of law. We can build a strong defense for you by working with a network of experts, including engineers, environmentalists and chemists.

Federal Drug Charges: Along with carrying heavier sentences than state-level drug crimes, federal drug charges often involve high-stakes issues, such as large quantities of drugs, allegations of organization and international transport. We have extensive knowledge of how federal court treats these issues and work confidentially with you to build a strong defense.

Possession of Child Pornography: In recent years, in part through the PATRIOT Act, the government has developed an expanded capacity to search computer hard drives. This has had serious implications for people accused of involvement with child pornography. Clients often come to our office wondering how they could be found guilty of possession when they did not ask for files. When it comes to answering questions like these, we offer nonjudgmental and confidential counsel.

We know that good people make mistakes and that good people also get wrongly accused of crimes. We invite you to sit down with us and seek legal advice from experienced attorney Tonda L. Curry. We offer confidential, nonjudgmental consultations and answers to your criminal law questions. Contact us today at 903.526.5115.
