Such crimes can involve claims of business or white collar fraud and theft, embezzlement, identity theft and internet crimes.

• Serious and violent offenses: Anyone accused of committing a “serious” or “violent” felony, or who may have a “serious” or “violent” felony prior conviction, must have the most aggressive criminal defense representation possible, since these crimes may constitute “strikes” under the 3-Strikes law in California. The 3-Strikes law mandates that those convicted of a serious or violent felony must go to prison, must have their term of imprisonment doubled where a strike prior is proven, and must be committed to prison for 25 years-to-life, where two or more strike convictions have been proven. The defense attorneys at Rien, Adams & Cox, LLP are skilled advocates in defending against serious and violent offenses—crimes that include firearms use, great bodily injury, robbery, burglary or murder.
