When the FBI Comes Calling…®

Law enforcement believes that you have committed a crime. The prosecutor's goal is to put you behind bars. You did not do it. You are not a criminal and you certainly do not want to go to jail.

Facing a criminal investigation and possible charges may be the single most difficult and stressful experience of your life. Your reputation, your assets, your personal relationships, and your liberty are at risk. In these circumstances, you do not need a good lawyer. You need an outstanding one. In fact, you need an outstanding team of lawyers.

McNabb Associates has brought together a team of professionals that understands the global criminal defense system in a way that few firms do. The firm's practice focuses exclusively on contentious criminal defense and international extradition. The firm concentrates the entirety of its efforts on defending individuals who are under investigation or who have been charged with having committed a crime. And it does so on a U.S. national and international scale.

Led by senior principal Douglas C. McNabb, the firm offers over 40 years of legal experience and has defended every major type of crime. The firm will put every aspect of that expertise to work for you. It will investigate every theory, consider every approach, and pursue every ethical strategy under the law as we analyze your case. Then members of the firm will mount your defense with a relentless commitment to protecting your interests. Whether our lawyers are negotiating with a prosecutor or cross-examining a hostile witness at trial, you will know that we are doing everything we can to secure the best possible outcome for you.

You can also rest assured knowing that no matter how intense the pressure, the firm will never back down. The firm has taken on prosecutors, agents, and investigators from every major investigative agency. In short, the firm is accustomed to the most challenging of situations and it welcomes those challenges. It even handles media challenges. Members of the firm write and speak widely on criminal matters, so if your case requires dealing with the print and broadcast media, the firm has plenty of experience to handle it.

Selecting your criminal defense team may be the most important decision you ever make. The stakes will never be higher. The lawyers you choose must have the experience and commitment to guide you through this frightening, complex process and reach the best possible result for you.

The most desirable outcome is more likely to be achieved the earlier you retain our team. We are committed to giving our clients the best possible defense. If we can develop our defensive strategy before any charges are brought against you, the firm can start to control the direction of the case. Otherwise the process will begin to control you, pulling you in directions you do not want to go. When that happens, draconian events begin to take place. Clearly, the firm's goal is to do everything it can to keep you from being charged. Failing that, your family and friends do not want you publicly arrested with the attendant media attention. The firm's expertise in handling prosecutors and the media can help keep you out of the spotlight.
