Denver Money Laundering Defense Lawyer

Defending Clients Accused of Disguising Illegally Obtained Funds

If you have been accused of laundering funds that were obtained as the proceeds of a crime, you could be facing serious criminal penalties. Money laundering is most often charged as a federal offense, making it necessary to retain an experienced federal criminal defense lawyer.

I am Thomas J. Hammond, a Denver money laundering defense attorney serving clients throughout the metro area. With more than 27 years of experience and a long-time focus on criminal defense, I am prepared to effectively defend clients against money laundering charges.

Understanding Criminal Money Laundering Charges

Money laundering involves the use of a legitimate transaction — such as a bank deposit, real estate purchases, or purchase of goods or services — to disguise the origins of money that was obtained through any type of crime, from a white collar crime to drug distribution.

If you are accused of either knowingly laundering illegal funds or knowingly structuring transactions to avoid federal reporting requirements, you could be charged with a crime.

In order to convict you of money laundering, the government does not have to prove that you were involved in the underlying illegal activity, that you knew anything specific about exactly where the money came from, or that you benefited from the transaction.

Money laundering charges are complex and often brought in conjunction with other complex accusations such as fraud charges. It is important to work with an attorney who will carefully evaluate the facts of your case in light of the specific provisions of the money laundering laws.
