Racketeering Defense

Originally enacted by Congress to combat mob related crime in the northeast, the Department of Justice has taken to indicting businessmen and politicians for racketeering, or what is commonly referred to as "RICO."

Federal and State racketeering charges are among the most serious charges a citizen of this country can face. Mr. Withers has represented clients in both federal and state criminal RICO cases, and has successfully defended clients in civil RICO matters.
