Boston White-Collar and Federal Crimes Lawyer
White-collar crimes are often known as "paper" cases, because state and federal prosecutors use substantial documentation to back up their charges. A criminal defense attorney must file key discovery motions to properly assess a case for his client. Additionally, most white-collar criminal cases involve charges of conspiracy, which allow prosecutors to suspend the hearsay rules that typically prevent unsubstantiated claims from being entered as evidence against a defendant. Attorney David R. Yannetti represents clients in Boston and throughout Massachusetts who have been charged with fraud, embezzlement, and other white collar-crimes in both Massachusetts and federal courts.
Attorney Yannetti may intervene as soon as possible on a client's behalf to ensure an investigation does not unfairly target him or her. As your lawyer, Attorney Yannetti would work hard to protect your rights, hiring his own investigators, computer experts, and forensic specialists to analyze and undermine the evidence against you.

Addressing the Evidence Presented
A defense lawyer may pursue discovery of evidence in a white-collar criminal case in two ways:
- By filing discovery motions with the court to order the prosecutor to turn over the documents and evidence in his file.
- By persuading the court to order an employer, hospital, bank or other third-party to turn over additional items to the defense. For example, in the case of embezzlement charges, the employer might have documents that are important to your case that the prosecutor does not have in his possession - or simply has not pursued.
To determine which documents are important to your case, your defense attorney must conduct his or her own independent investigation. Preparation is 90 percent of the battle in white-collar crime cases such as fraud and embezzlement. It is therefore vitally important for you to contact an experienced and skilled criminal defense attorney as soon as you learn you are under investigation for a white-collar crime.
