Chicago Money Laundering Attorney

What is Money Laundering?

Money laundering is defined as a process by which criminals disguise ownership, transaction, and control of money or property derived from illegal activity by making such proceeds appear to come from a legitimate source. The crime also includes investing, receiving, financing or expending the proceeds of criminal activity and funds to be used to further the commission of criminal activity.

If you have been arrested or currently under investigation for money laundering, it’s imperative to retain services from an experienced and reliable lawyer. At The Law Office of Steven Fine, our Chicago money laundering attorney can provide you with a relentless and personalized defense to help obtain your desired outcome.
