Computer & Internet Crimes

San Diego Computer Crimes Defense

Internet and computer crimes are taken more seriously by police and prosecutors today than ever before. If your hard drive has been seized as evidence or you have already been arrested for and charged with a crime, you may be tempted to think there's no way out.

Don't be.

Probable cause, entrapment, search and seizure requirements, computer access and other issues can be used to successfully defend people who've been charged with computer crimes. Don't wait to hire a lawyer — contact The Law Offices of Shapiro & Clamon today.

At The Law Offices of Shapiro & Clamon, we fight to defend and protect the rights of people in the San Diego area and throughout the surrounding region of Southern California who have been arrested for and charged with committing computer crimes. Our firm handles both state and federal cases and a broad range of criminal charges, including:

  • Internet gaming fraud
  • Internet sales fraud
  • Criminal pirating
  • Theft of code
  • Hacking, fishing (phishing)
  • Computer identity theft
  • Purchase of illegal prescription drugs or steroids via the Internet
  • Internet sex crimes/online solicitation

Tempted by the abundance of evidence sometimes contained on computer hard drives and sensing the opportunity for easy convictions, police and prosecutors will often make procedural mistakes in their hasty pursuit of these cases. Our criminal defense lawyers have decades of experience and a strong background in law enforcement. As a result, we can spot these mistakes quickly and use them to your advantage.

However, if it looks like they do have the evidence they need to convict — we will sit down with you and talk about worst-case scenarios (often not as bad as clients fear), best-case scenarios and a range of more realistic ones. The ones we ultimately work toward will be a decision that you have to make — based on your own goals and level of comfort with what is involved.

Whatever you decide, you will not have to wonder who your attorney is or what he or she is doing to help you. We are an AV®-rated* law firm under Martindale-Hubbell’s peer review rating system. We communicate on a regular basis. We return calls and e-mails promptly. We keep you as involved in the process as you want to be.
