Defending Against Conspiracy Charges in Virginia 

If you have been accused of being involved in a federal crime, not only do you face charges for the alleged criminal offense, but you could also be charged with planning with others to commit the crime.

With 26 years of top-notch experience, our Alexandria conspiracy defense lawyers at Bynum & Jenkins Law have extensive knowledge of state and federal criminal laws to guide you through the complexities of the criminal justice system and fight for the most favorable result.

What is Conspiracy?

Conspiracy involves an agreement – whether it is written or verbally agreed upon – made by two or more people or parties to commit or try to commit a criminal offense. This type of offense is typically charged along with other federal crimes, such as drug distribution, tax fraud, or even RICO.

However, it is not enough to be convicted of conspiracy by only reaching an agreement with multiple parties. A co-conspirator must commit an “overt act” to move the conspiracy forward. For example, a person purchases a gun and a ski mask to be used in a robbery.

What Are the Penalties for Conspiracy?

A conviction for conspiracy is punishable by a maximum prison term of five years and/or a fine of up to $250,000 for each count. Yet, many conspirators face the same exact penalties as defendants that committed the underlying substantive crime. For instance, a conviction for conspiracy involving racketeering can carry a sentence of imprisonment of up to 20 years, exactly the same penalties as a conviction for racketeering. 

How Can a Conspiracy Lawyer Help Me? 

A conspiracy lawyer can help you if you are facing charges related to conspiracy. Here's how they can assist you:

  • Legal Guidance: A conspiracy lawyer can explain the charges against you and the potential consequences you face. They can help you understand your rights and the legal options available to you.
  • Defense Strategy: A conspiracy lawyer can develop a defense strategy tailored to your case. They will investigate the allegations against you, gather evidence, and identify weaknesses in the prosecution's case.
  • Negotiation: If you are interested in negotiating a plea deal, a conspiracy lawyer can negotiate with the prosecution on your behalf. They will work to secure the best possible outcome for you, such as reduced charges or a lighter sentence.
  • Court Representation: If your case goes to trial, a conspiracy lawyer will represent you in court. They will present your defense, cross-examine witnesses, and advocate for your innocence.
  • Sentencing: If you are convicted, a conspiracy lawyer can argue for a lenient sentence. They can present mitigating factors to the court and advocate for alternatives to incarceration, such as probation or community service.
  • Appeals: If you are convicted and wish to appeal, a conspiracy lawyer can help you navigate the appeals process. They will identify grounds for appeal and argue your case before the appellate court.

Overall, a conspiracy lawyer can provide you with the legal representation and guidance you need to navigate the complexities of conspiracy charges. They will work tirelessly to protect your rights and achieve the best possible outcome for your case.
