Federal vs. State Crimes
In the United States, both the federal government as well as individual states are given the authority to classify and regulate criminal offenses:
- Typically, state laws govern crimes which occur locally or are specific to their jurisdiction.
- Federal offenses are those that violate federal statutes and typically include actions taken against the United States, a federal agent, or include multiple states.
Federal crimes can often be more severe and can involve numerous government agencies such as the FBI. Accordingly, federal offenses are heard in courts specific to these crimes. Our attorneys understand the laws, regulations, and punishments specific to federal crimes and can work tirelessly to uphold your rights.
