Computer and Internet Crimes

Cybercrime Is So New, Police Don't Always Get the Facts

Internet crime. Hacking. Phishing. We are starting to hear more about cybercrime, but law enforcement is not always certain about the line between criminal activity and innocent behavior. People using their PC in the quiet of their own home are often charged with misdemeanors and felonies that are impossible to prove.

Proof of Criminal Intent Is Necessary

Computer and Internet crime involves complex evidence that can only come from understanding how hard drives and Internet files work. We have experience investigating cybercrimes and making prosecutors prove that you intended to commit a crime and that your access to the files was unauthorized. Often, they simply can't.

Contact our offices in Houston to discuss the charges against you or an ongoing investigation. We represent clients in federal and state jurisdictions throughout southeastern Texas.

We represent people charged with computer or Internet crimes such as:

  • Internet child pornography

Federal Charges
