Outstanding Client Service in Federal Criminal Defense
A grand jury indictment returned in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio creates a universe of problems that are quite distinct from those that people face in the state criminal justice system. The laws are different, the courts are different, the procedures are different, the sentencing is different and the prisons are different.
Your expectations of your lawyer should be different as well. It's no longer a question of facing down a local prosecutor working with evidence obtained by a local police department or sheriff's office. Instead, the evidence against you will likely be assembled by the FBI, the DEA, the IRS, Homeland Security, or any of the dozens of other federal agencies with national jurisdiction and vast resources.

To mount a strong defense, it makes sense to work with an attorney who understands the federal system and who has a track record of success in federal criminal defense. Contact Synenberg & Associates in Cleveland to benefit from our experience and familiarity with federal prosecutions.
Roger Synenberg has focused on federal criminal law throughout his career. He was an Assistant U.S. Attorney in Cleveland in the 1980's, and federal criminal defense has been the mainstay of his practice since he established his own firm in 1989. His knowledge of federal charging practices, the grand jury investigation process, and even the political realities of federal criminal practice have protected the rights and interests of our firm's clients in case after case.
Major drug prosecutions and white collar criminal cases are often initiated by federal law enforcement agencies, which need a grand jury indictment to proceed with serious criminal charges. If you get the opportunity to work with an experienced defense lawyer while the grand jury is still considering the evidence, grab it. You can benefit in the following ways:
- Clarify your role in a federal investigation — target, person of interest or witness
- Get advice about responding to a federal grand jury subpoena
- Learn about the serious risks of perjury or obstruction of justice
- Work toward the reduction or rejection of potential charges before they result in an indictment
- In some cases, present your own evidence to the grand jury
Our experience with federal criminal defense can help you at every stage of the investigation and prosecution process — before indictment, immediately after an arrest or search, in pretrial motions, in plea negotiations, at trial and if necessary, at sentencing.
