FEDERAL CRIMINAL ENFORCEMENT DEFENSE attorney green clark law firm

Federal Criminal & Enforcement Defense Attorney Dallas, TX

For GreenClark, this is Personal.

A federal crime occurs when an individual violates federal law or commits a crime on federal property, while state criminal cases deal with individuals who violate state laws. Federal crimes are likely to carry more serious consequences then state violations.

A federal criminal investigation is much different than an investigation and cases handled before state courts. For example, law enforcement agencies that investigate federal crimes have highly skilled investigators and agents responsible for conducting federal investigations. These investigations can last for months and even longer before criminal charges are even filed.

Since the federal government and federal prosecutors who are conducting federal criminal trials have practically unlimited resources to pursue a case, hiring a federal defense lawyer is necessary for creating a defense strategy focused on protecting your rights and overcoming the allegations.

A federal criminal defense lawyer will be able to advise you what to do and not to do in order to have the best chance at avoiding hefty federal criminal penalties. Quick intervention by a legal professional can be vital to your freedom.

GreenClark represents clients across Texas who have been accused by the federal government of committing a crime. If you are under investigation, have been served with a grand jury subpoena, or are facing federal charges, you can schedule a free and confidential consultation below.

FEDERAL CRIMINAL & ENFORCEMENT DEFENSE

A federal criminal case can be complex. While each case has its own unique twists and turns, the information below should give you a general idea of the federal criminal case process.

Investigation: The case begins with a federal law enforcement agency conducting an investigation into an alleged violation of federal law.

Indictment: If the investigation finds sufficient evidence, a grand jury may issue an indictment, which is a formal charge against the defendant.

Arrest and Initial Appearance: If the defendant is not already in custody, they will be arrested and brought before a federal magistrate judge for an initial appearance.

Arraignment: The defendant is then arraigned, where they enter a plea of guilty or not guilty.

Discovery: Both the prosecution and the defense exchange information and evidence through the discovery process.

Pretrial Motions: The parties may file pretrial motions, such as motions to suppress evidence or dismiss the case.

Trial: If the case is not resolved through a plea bargain, it will proceed to trial. A jury will hear evidence and determine the defendant’s guilt or innocence.

Sentencing: If the defendant is convicted, a judge will determine their sentence based on the federal sentencing guidelines and other factors.

Appeal: Either the defendant or the government may appeal the verdict or sentence to a higher court.

Each part of a case has its own unique considerations. GreenClark is here to zealously defend your rights at each turn.

Mr Green is a great lawyer when he say he doing something he do it. Thank you for keeping me with my family.
I had the privilege of working with Stephen Green, and I can honestly say he is one of the best lawyers I’ve ever met. From the very first consultation, he was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely compassionate. Stephen took the time to understand every detail, explained all of my options clearly, and guided me through every step.What really stood out was his dedication and responsiveness. Any time I had a question or concern, Stephen was quick to respond and always made me feel supported.Thank you Stephen!
She's a great lawyer an I would definitely hire her she's great.
I am a physician who has worked hard to provide very high level care to my patients for more than 30 years. Somehow, in the course of providing this high level care, I was wrongfully accused of healthcare fraud. I hired Jeff Clark to handle my case and he professionally addressed the issues of concern leading to my dismissal from the case. Jeff handled the entire case very professionally, and always kept me informed about how things were going. If any other physician or other professional ever gets in a similar legal dispute, I highly recommend the Green Clark Law Firm!
Gabby has been so helpful and very supportive in a sensitive situation highly recommend!!!

I can’t thank Attorney Stephen Green enough for everything he did for my family. My loved one was facing over 25 years in the federal prison. We had gone through two different attorneys until we were lucky to find Mr. Green. We felt like we had no hope. Mr. Green fought hard and was able to get an offer of just 10 years, something we never thought was possible.From the moment he took the case, he was honest, professional, and incredibly responsive. He answered every phone call, explained everything clearly, and made time for us. He treated our family with respect and truly cared about the outcome. We finally felt like we had someone in our corner who believed in us and had the skill to back it up.Thanks to Attorney Stephen Green, our lives changed for the better. I will forever be grateful to him. He’s not great, he is the BEST!Belma H.

I got hurt in a car wreck and hired GreenClark to help me with my case. I could not be happier with the outcome. They were great negotiators with the insurance company. They got all my medical bills paid and I received a lot more money than I expected to receive for my pain and suffering. If you're hurt in a car wreck, don't call a billboard lawyer, call GreenClark!
Let me start by saying that everyone I dealt with at GreenClark Law Firm exceeded my expectations. I had the opportunity of working with Stephen Green, Jeff Clark, and Gabriela Markolovic. Not only are they all great attorneys, but they go far and beyond in every aspect of taking care of their client. They have compassion and are truly an asset to anyone needing strong legal representation. I could not be happier with the outcome of my daughter's case which they kept me informed of every step of the way. All these attorneys have genuine compassion for their clients and they actually became more like friends to us. If you are in search of phenomenal legal representation, look no further than the attorneys at GreenClark Law Firm, I highly recommend them and five stars isn't enough for the spectacular service they provide!

Gabriela Markolovic was excellent from start to finish of the case. She was very informative and kept me updated. Was able to get him a lighter sentence, highly recommended.
Jeff Clark was fantastic to work with. Although we couldn’t proceed due to a conflict of interest, his insight was invaluable. He went above and beyond to ensure that my associates and I were well taken care of. His expertise and approach were top-notch, and I highly recommend his services to anyone seeking legal assistance.
Stephen green is the best lawyer Ive ever experienced with, he is a true professional, and excellent on what he does, and what i need help for. I could not be more happier with someone that i call a friend and my lawyer. The guy is a genius!!
Although the incident was a very unfortunate both jeff and his partner where very helpful. and im glad I met them both. They are very good at their job.
Attorneys were very helpful and we were satisfied with the results in the end.
My family Was referred to the GreenClark Law firm after my two sons were racially profiled while shopping as young black men at the H-E-B in Allen. They were never seen shoplifting, however, upon leaving the store they were met with many Police officers and a helicopter after purchasing their items. HEB unfairly and unjustly let the criminal trespassing warning stay on their record with the Allen police department. The GreenClark Law firm took the time to meet with our family and explain in detail what they could do for us to help make wright the wrongs against my children. They were patient, sympathetic and understanding to all of our concerns. Working with the GreenClark law firm we were able to get the criminal trespassing warnings against both of my sons removed. We are grateful for their time and their help. I am Most grateful that my children were not harmed in the incident that I mentioned. I am also grateful for the help that we received from this law firm. Thank you!
Fate put Jeff and Steven in my orbit. And fate could not have been more on point. This is not your typical law firm or lawyers. No phone call or email ever goes unreturned. Their knowledge and understanding of the law is beyond reproach. Professional, personable, competent and caring. I felt protected and shielded just having them on my side. Big or small issue they are there for the client.
I’m an experienced federal criminal defense lawyer. Gaby wrote a complex federal brief for me that was so good that I was embarrassed to sign my name to it. She has an incredible background and great experience in federal law. She was a pleasure working with and I will not hesitate to work with her in the future! Great job Gaby!
Represented a family member professionally and aggressive, we were very pleased!!
Mr. Green goes above and beyond for his clients. He’s knowledgeable, professional, and truly cares about his clients. I would highly recommend Mr. Green!
Let me start my saying. Mr Stephan Green…….is truly an amazing attorney! No words can express how he handled my son case not only once but twice. He is an amazing attorney. Everyone that has been involved in my son’s case has really been amazing. I know how it truly feels to be in a situation but having him as an attorney makes it just so much easier to deal with. Mr. Green is responsive to all my calls and messages. Like l said words can’t describe the care and work he puts in his cases.
Mr. Green was a court appointed lawyer for my brother, and when I tell you he worked a miracle he was facing up too 20 years federal time and only ending up getting 9. I was In communications with Mr.Green the entire time, I think he may have gotten tired of me lol. But no matter how much i got on his nerves he was always nice and responded to me. He recommended things we should do to help get my brother's sentences lowered. Whenever my brother had questions he answered in timely manner. He was always available if he wasn't in court or and if he was busy he would get back to me as soon as he could. At one point my brother had me ask him if we paid him could he get a different outcome. His response was no matter if you pay me or not I'm going to do the same work. At that moment I knew he was what my brother needed, because most people have the belief that court appointed lawyers want work hard for there client but Mr.Green is not one of those. Even my brothers old lawyer William Cox told me that he was a great lawyer and he was in good hands. So if your in trouble and you need a good/great lawyer Mr.Green is definitely your guy.
Attorney Green has been a huge help to our family.Highly recommend this law firm.
It has been my experience that the Lawyers at GreenClark Law Firm are exceptional. In addition to being great attorneys they are relentless in their defense of their clients. Does your attorney have compassion? Mine does.I'm a very satisfied client!Jeff Richie
Un excelente abogado, me ayudó mucho en mi caso federal, en menos de un año resolvió mi caso, y me ayudó a obtener mi libertad, cuando mi condena era de 11 años, menos las deducciones 7 años,el me consiguió una sentencia de tiempo servido, hice menos del tiempo que me querían sentenciar, realmente se los recomiendo, ya que es un excelente defensor.
Stephen Green absolutely saved my life!! I was facing the possibility of a federal indictment, which felt absolutely surreal. Terrified, I spoke to four other extremely well respected, highly rated federal criminal defense attorneys about my case, yet Stephen is the only one who actually listened and caught the significance of something all others have missed, which he ultimately was able to use to achieve the desired outcome in my case. It was Stephen’s exceptional attention to detail and genuine compassion that truly stood out. He is extremely knowledgeable, respectful, non-judgmental, and really cares about his clients. During this very stressful and daunting process, Stephen was always there for me along the way. He genuinely cared about me as a person and often checked in on how I was doing, I never felt judged and right away I knew in my gut that I could trust him 100%. Any questions or concern I had along the way, he always very thoughtfully responded right away as soon as he could, always the same day. My end outcome was the absolute best possible, so I could not be happier!!Stephen is an extraordinary attorney, but more than that, he’s an amazing human being. He listens, pays attention, doesn’t judge, has so much compassion, and genuinely does everything in his power to fight for you. I know in my heart that if I had gone with another attorney, my life would have most likely been irreparably ruined forever. It was Stephen’s patience, attention to detail, and compassion that ultimately made the biggest difference in my case and got the best possible outcome.The federal system is a beast of its own and most people have such limited knowledge of how it all really works. It’s terrifying and can feel so de-humanizing and overwhelming. I feel so lucky and beyond grateful to have had Stephen’s help. He was very transparent from the very start and extremely honest with me always without any sugar-coating and made me feel very comfortable throughout the entire process. Now having gone through it all, I cannot stress enough the importance of having an attorney who’s attentive and understanding and makes you feel heard and at ease. I had so many questions and at times needed some reassurance, yet I never felt like a nuisance or an afterthought. Stephen always went above and beyond and he’s truly a miracle worker!!Thank you again for everything, Stephen! I will be forever and always grateful for your help
Mr.green did an outstanding job representing my mother. He took her case on very short notice and was able to reduce her sentence by many years. Very professional
Mr Green is a very nice and is able to listen to a person. He is a good lawyer and is able to argue for the defendant and to listen to his clients wishes and family. I am definitely recommending him.
Stephen Green was my Husband’s attorney. I can’t thank him enough for all his work on my husband’s case. Very professional and super friendly.
If you're looking for an attorney look no further Stephen Green, is definitely your guy if you're looking for an honest down to earth, tell you how it is no sugar coating And has his client best interest at heart, definitely give him a call. Best decision I could have made. My life did a total three sixty for the better thanks to this guy call him you won't be disappointed.
Stephen Green was everything I wanted and more. Honest, professional and attentive every step of the way. He asked questions, and asked me to ask questions. Anything I needed. Always in touch. When you need legal counsel, you always hope to find "one of the good ones." Stephen Green is indeed one of the good ones. I can't thank him and his firm enough. I am forever appreciative and grateful.
