At The Law Offices of Steven E. Springer, we represent business clients and individuals in matters involving violations or suspected violations of criminal law. The principal of our practice, Steven E. Springer, has more than 30 years of combined experience in business management and the legal profession. He understands the legal and practical aspects of corporate and employee wrongdoing as well as how to defend those parties when they are accused of wrongdoing.

To aid our work in this area, we can call upon the services of experienced private investigators, forensic accountants, and other specialists to uncover the facts and protect the rights and interests of the client:

• Protecting business clients. We frequently provide advice and investigatory services to businesses and corporations who suspect wrongdoing by an employee, a group of employees, or a competing business. Using private investigators and our own resources, we can conduct confidential investigations designed to uncover any evidence of wrongdoing. When it involves a criminal act or acts on the part of an employee, such as theft or embezzlement, we assist our clients in their interactions with law enforcement. If the client wishes merely to fire the employee, we can help the client dismiss the employee in a way that complies with California employment law. If the matter involves a business tort such as fraud, we can seek justice and recovery of assets through a business litigation effort.

• Defending corporate clients. We vigorously defend corporations that are the subject of business tort lawsuits, such as fraud, or theft of technology. We defend corporate clients who have been accused of various types of criminal conduct. In addition, we represent business clients accused of regulatory violations before all state and federal regulatory agencies.

• Defending individuals. Experienced in white collar criminal defense, The Law Offices of Steven E. Springer defends the rights and freedom of individuals accused of felony crimes. We can call upon the services of private investigators and other professionals to provide exculpatory or mitigating evidence in the white collar criminal defense effort.
