Beverly Hills White Collar Defense Attorney

Conspiracy charges are extremely serious and, in many cases, may result in a person facing the same penalties for the underlying crime itself - even if he/she did not actually carry out the crime. Additionally, conspiracy may be charged as a federal crime, which may result in harsher penalties and a more aggressive investigation and prosecution by federal law enforcement agencies.

From his offices in Beverly Hills, California, attorney Bernstein handles cases throughout all of Los Angeles County. His experience in State and Federal Court, as well as a former prosecutor, have given attorney Bernstein the ability to provide aggressive and effective defense representation to his clients.

Los Angeles Conspiracy Charges

When two or more people agree to commit a crime and take some affirmative step or action in furtherance of the conspiracy, this constitutes the crime of conspiracy. Even if the commission of the crime does not actually occur, those parties involved in conspiring to commit the crime may still face criminal charges.

A conviction for conspiracy may result in various penalties. The severity and type of crime the parties conspired to commit will be the main determining factor in the sentence a defendant may face. Conspiring to commit a felony offense may result in a state prison sentence of up to 5 years. Conspiracy charges in Federal Court may face even harsher penalties, again based on the underlying crime.
