Michigan - Federal defense attorney Paul J. Tafelski, the founder of Michigan Defense Law explains important details about federal law, federal prosecution, and federal defense in his new article. The defense lawyer has emphasized the importance of having a high-quality federal defense attorney if one has been involved or accused of any federal crimes.
Attorney Paul Tafelski says in his article that in Michigan, residents are subject to two distinct sets of criminal laws. Laws that are only applicable inside Michigan’s borders and laws that apply nationwide.
He also further states that in order for the federal government to criminalize something, it needs to have a connection to the Constitution. Usually, this happens if the crime has an effect on interstate commerce, the federal government can criminalize it. These types of crimes usually include child pornography, drug trafficking, and fraud.
In his new article, Mr. Tafelski also talks about how federal prosecution usually differs from state-level prosecutions. He mentions that local prosecutors often rely on state and local police to investigate criminal activity, but federal prosecutors have the resources and power of the FBI, Department of Homeland Security, and other federal agencies.
Furthermore, Mr. Tafelski also discusses federal investigations and how they work in his article. When someone commits a federal crime, instead of the Michigan police being involved in the investigation, the federal agency will assume control of the investigation and possibly turn the case over to the U.S. Attorney.
Aside from the aforementioned, the federal defense attorney also talks about the stages involved in a federal criminal case. He outlines the steps of a usual proceeding according to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. He also adds that each case is unique, but the steps he talked about in the article are usually included in the process.
Lastly, Mr. Tafelski also explains in his article the role of a federal defense lawyer in a federal case. He says that federal criminal charges are very serious since the federal government has a tremendous amount of legal power. These stakes can be very high. This is why he recommends having an experienced federal defense attorney if anyone is involved or accused of any federal case.
He further discusses that a federal defense attorney protects his clients against illegal searches and seizures. This is done by ensuring the government presents sufficient evidence to convict someone. He also adds that a federal defense attorney must be able to explore factual defense and legal defenses in order to prepare a detailed sentencing submission, to help convince the federal judge to mete out the most lenient sentence possible.
