White-collar crimes typically include embezzlement, computer crime, theft, and tax evasion. These charges often have additional collateral consequences in the community, irreparably damaging your reputation and ability to earn a living. Although they are usually non-violent, these crimes can still result in the same harsh consequences as violent crimes. They are often charged as federal crimes, which often have more severe penalties than crimes charged at the state level.
