Facing conspiracy charges in Los Angeles can be overwhelming. These charges carry serious consequences, including significant fines, long prison sentences, and a lasting criminal record. At K Smith Law, our criminal defense attorney specializes in defending clients accused of conspiracy. Whether you're facing federal or state charges, we have the experience and dedication to help you navigate this complex legal situation.
What is a Conspiracy Charge?
In California, conspiracy occurs when two or more individuals agree to commit a crime and take some form of action toward carrying it out. You don't have to be directly involved in the crime itself to be charged with conspiracy. Even planning the crime or facilitating its execution can lead to serious legal consequences.
Examples of conspiracy crimes include:
- Drug trafficking
- Fraud
- Organized crime
- Money laundering
- White-collar crime
If you've been charged with conspiracy, it’s critical to have an experienced criminal defense lawyer by your side who understands the nuances of conspiracy law.
Why You Need a Conspiracy Defense Attorney in Los Angeles
Conspiracy cases are often complex because they involve multiple parties and actions over time. Prosecutors must prove that you had an agreement to commit a crime and that you took steps to further the conspiracy. However, the burden of proof lies with the prosecution, and a skilled attorney can challenge the evidence presented against you.
At KSmith Law, we will:
- Investigate the circumstances surrounding your case
- Challenge the prosecution's evidence and witness testimony
- Build a strong defense strategy to protect your rights
- Negotiate for reduced charges or dismissal when possible
Our goal is to provide aggressive defense strategies to help reduce or eliminate the charges against you.
