Tampa Racketeering / RICO Defense Lawyer

Racketeering is working an illegal business for financial gain or engaging in a deceitful scheme or enterprise. Racketeering is often charged under the federal Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act or RICO, but some states have similar laws. Racketeering usually revolves around very complicated legal issues and is thus important to ensure your defense with a strong attorney like Joe Caimano.

Racketeering activities include any number of criminal offenses such as:

  • Fraud
  • Money Laundering
  • Federal Drug Offenses
  • Murder
  • Kidnapping
  • Gambling
  • Arson
  • Robbery
  • Bribery
  • Counterfeiting
  • Embezzlement connected with an “enterprise” defined as any individual, partnership, corporation, association, or other legal entity

Some gangs, organized crime groups, and terrorist groups usually conduct racketeering and RICO offenses. Groups charged with this crime must give up their assets to the government in order to sever the financial foundation of the organization.

If you or a loved one is charged with RICO/Racketeering, you should immediately contact Joe Caimano to get a clear understanding of penalties you may face. He will provide you with the best legal strategy possible.
