White-Collar Criminal Defense

The Ferraro Law Firm employs four former federal prosecutors with a combined 45 years experience in the Department of Justice at the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida. This includes Jeffrey H. Sloman, whose distinguished 20 year career as a federal prosecutor included being the United States Attorney for the Southern District of Florida in his final year of service. The United States Attorney is the district’s chief law enforcement officer whose responsibility is to enforce and defend the laws of the United States. The Southern District of Florida is the third largest federal prosecutor’s office in the United States. Prior to serving as United States Attorney, Mr. Sloman served as the district’s Criminal Division Chief and First Assistant United States Attorney, the number 2 and 3 positions in the Office. Allan B. Kaiser served twice as Chief of the Major Crimes Division and also as Deputy Chief of the Narcotics Division. During their careers as federal prosecutors, Mr. Sloman and Mr. Kaiser, along with Melissa Damian Visconti handled a wide array of complex and high profile cases, including those in the white-collar areas of health-care fraud, mortgage-fraud, securities fraud, mail and wire fraud, identity theft, credit-card fraud, amongst others. Our attorneys’ in-depth knowledge of the government’s practices and procedures is integral to their ability to provide the highest level of representation to an individual charged with a crime. Our attorneys are trial attorneys, and are well-suited to match the government in the courtroom, but yet simultaneously will work vigilantly to secure an alternative resolution where available and appropriate.
