At the end of the day, you will need federal crime lawyers that have experience in the government contracting world.  Traditional federal criminal defense attorneys with no procurement experience end up convincing you to take deals and jail time. Why is this? Because the federal prosecutors know that your federal defense lawyer is not experienced in the underlying procurement regulations from which they bring the underlying charges.
