When Federal Agents Execute a Search Warrant for EIDL Fraud: Your Rights Start Now

Last Updated on: 28th November 2025, 09:09 pm

Three FBI agents are standing in your office. One is photographing your filing cabinets. Another is imaging your computer hard drive. The third just asked you to “explain your EIDL application” while they bag your business records. What you say in the next 60 seconds could probably determine whether you spend the next 5-20 years in federal prison.

If federal agents are executing a search warrant at your business or home right now, you’re facing a critical moment. They’re searching for evidence of Economic Injury Disaster Loan fraud, and every word you say, every document you point them to, every password you provide is building their case against you. This article explains your Fourth Amendment rights during search warrant execution, what agents can and cannot take, how to protect yourself during the search, and your immediate next steps in the first 24-48 hours.

The FBI Is at Your Door—What the Search Warrant Means

Your heart is probably racing. There’s a loud knock. You open the door. Federal agents—FBI, SBA Office of Inspector General, maybe Secret Service—are holding a document. They say they have a search warrant for your business records related to your EIDL loan. You probably have a lot of questions running through your mind. Do I let them in? Can I call my lawyer? What happens if I refuse?

Here’s the deal: if they have a valid search warrant signed by a federal magistrate judge, you must allow them to enter and conduct the search. You cannot physically obstruct them. Blocking their entry is a separate federal crime (obstruction of justice). But—and this is critical—you have rights even during a search warrant execution.

Look, here’s what the search warrant actually means for your situation. By the time federal agents show up at your door with a warrant, the investigation is already well advanced. This isn’t the beginning of their investigation, regardless of what you might think. They’ve probably already interviewed your employees, your bookkeeper, maybe your accountant. They’ve analyzed your EIDL application. They’ve reviewed your bank records. The search warrant is one of the final investigative steps before presenting your case to a grand jury.

You need to understand that a search warrant for business records means you’re likely a target of the investigation, not just a witness or subject. The government doesn’t execute search warrants for minor issues. They’re looking for evidence to support federal fraud charges under 18 U.S.C. § 1343 (wire fraud), 18 U.S.C. § 1344 (bank fraud), or 18 U.S.C. § 1001 (false statements). These charges carry penalties of up to 20-30 years in federal prison and fines up to $1 million.

The warrant itself is a legal document that must comply with the Fourth Amendment and Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure Rule 41. It has three critical parts: (1) the court’s authorization, (2) Attachment A describing the place to be searched, and (3) Attachment B describing the items to be seized with particularity. That last part—Attachment B—is what limits what they can take. You’re gonna want to read it carefully.

Your Fourth Amendment Rights During Search Execution

Even though agents are executing a valid warrant, you have the right to remain silent. This is crucial. Miranda warnings are not necessary during a search warrant execution unless you’re in custody (handcuffed, not free to leave). So agents can ask you questions while they’re searching, and anything you say can be used against you, but they don’t have to tell you that.

Your rights during the search include:

1. The right to see the warrant and all attachments. Don’t just let them in because they say they have a warrant. Ask to see it. Read it. Look at Attachment A (place to be searched) and Attachment B (items to be seized). If the warrant is for “123 Main Street” but they’re searching your home at a different address, that’s a problem. If Attachment B says “financial records related to EIDL loan application” but they’re taking your personal family photos, that’s outside the scope.

2. The right to have your attorney present. You can call your lawyer immediately. Agents cannot stop you from making a phone call to your attorney, regardless of what they might suggest about “slowing things down.” Your lawyer can’t physically stop the search if the warrant is valid, but they can observe, document what’s taken, and object to seizures that exceed the warrant’s scope.

3. The right to remain silent about questions unrelated to the search. If agents ask you “Can you explain this transaction on your bank statement?” or “Why did you apply for the EIDL loan?” or “Who helped you fill out the application?”—you can politely decline to answer. More on this in the next section because this is where most people destroy their own defense.

But here’s what you need to understand about business records and the Fifth Amendment: business records have NO Fifth Amendment protection. This is based on a legal doctrine called the “collective entity doctrine,” established in Braswell v. United States, 487 U.S. 99 (1988). Even if you’re a sole proprietor and the business records incriminate you personally, you cannot invoke the Fifth Amendment to prevent agents from taking them.

Think about it—your personal diary describing the same events would be protected. Your business ledger showing the exact same information is not. The law treats business records as belonging to the business entity, not to you personally, even if you own the business. This is why search warrants for business records are easier for the government to obtain than warrants for personal records.

This also means that if agents have a grand jury subpoena for business records (different from a search warrant), you generally cannot refuse to produce them based on Fifth Amendment grounds. The warrant route is even more direct—they just take them.

What Agents Can Take—and What They Cannot

The scope of what agents can seize is supposed to be defined with particularity in Attachment B of the warrant. A warrant that says “all business records” is probably too broad and might be challengeable. A warrant that says “financial records, loan applications, tax returns, bank statements, and electronic devices containing business records related to Economic Injury Disaster Loan #XXXXXXXX received on [date]” is more specific and more likely to survive a legal challenge.

Agents can take:

Business records explicitly listed in Attachment B—This typically includes financial statements, tax returns, bank records, loan applications, correspondence with SBA or lenders, accountant workpapers, QuickBooks files, business computers, and external hard drives. If it’s listed in the warrant and it’s in the place they’re searching, they can seize it.

Items in “plain view” that suggest other crimes—If agents are searching for EIDL fraud evidence and they see a stack of counterfeit currency sitting on your desk, they can seize that under the plain view doctrine even though it’s not related to EIDL fraud. But the item must be immediately recognizable as evidence of a crime.

Digital devices that may contain relevant records—Your business computer, your phone (if used for business), servers, external drives. Agents will typically take the entire device and conduct forensic analysis later. This is where things get tricky because your phone probably has personal information too. The warrant should specify business-related data, but in practice, once they image your phone, they can see everything. They’re gonna look through all of it.

Agents cannot take—or shouldn’t be able to take without a fight:

Items clearly outside the warrant’s scope—If the warrant specifies EIDL-related records and agents start boxing up records from 2015 (before COVID-19), that’s outside the scope. You can object verbally: “I’m objecting to the seizure of these records because they’re outside the time period specified in the warrant.” They might take them anyway, but you’ve preserved your objection for a later Motion to Suppress.

Attorney-client privileged communications—This is complicated. Attorney-client privilege does NOT protect underlying business records just because you gave them to your lawyer. If you handed your QuickBooks file to your attorney, the government can still seize it from your attorney’s office with a warrant. The privilege protects communications between you and your lawyer (your conversations, your lawyer’s advice), not the business records themselves.

However, your attorney’s work product—their notes, memos, legal research, and strategic analysis—IS protected under the work product doctrine (Hickman v. Taylor). So if your lawyer has created a memo analyzing the strength of the government’s case, that memo is protected. The bank records the memo analyzes are not.

This is why you need a lawyer involved immediately. Once your attorney creates work product around the seized evidence, that work product is shielded from government access. But don’t make the mistake of thinking that emailing business records to your lawyer with the subject line “privileged” makes them privileged. It doesn’t work that way.

The Consent Trap—What NOT to Do During the Search

This is where most people facing a search warrant make critical mistakes that destroy their defense. The agents are in your office. They’re going through your files. And then one of them approaches you with a friendly tone: “Hey, can you just help us understand your business operations? We’re trying to figure out how this all works. Can you explain how you calculated the revenue on your EIDL application?”

You’re terrified. You want to seem cooperative. You definitely don’t want to look guilty. So you start talking. And right there—right there in that moment—you’re probably giving them the evidence they need to prosecute you.

Look, here’s the thing. Agents executing search warrants are trained in what’s called “interview tactics during search execution.” They’re not just looking for physical evidence. They’re looking for statements from you. And regardless of how friendly they seem, how much they say “we just want to hear your side,” how much they imply that cooperation will help you—do NOT answer their questions without your attorney present.

Here’s what the consent trap looks like in practice:

“Can you show us where you keep your financial records?”—Seems harmless, right? But if you lead them to a filing cabinet that’s not in the area specified in Attachment A, you’ve just given consent to expand the search beyond the warrant’s geographic scope. You’ve voluntarily allowed them to search an area they might not have been authorized to search. And anything they find there is admissible because you consented.

“What’s the password to this computer?”—If the computer is listed in the warrant, they can seize it regardless of whether you give them the password. They’ll image the hard drive and their forensic team will try to crack it. But if you give them the password, you’re making their job easier and you’re also establishing that you knew what was on that device. Later, when they find incriminating files, you can’t claim you didn’t know they were there. You unlocked it for them.

“Just walk us through your EIDL application process. How did you calculate your gross revenue?”—This seems like a background question. You’re thinking, “I’ll just explain my methodology. That’ll show I wasn’t trying to defraud anyone.” But what you’re actually doing is giving them a statement under oath (technically—anything you say to federal agents is treated as if you’re under oath for purposes of false statements charges). If your explanation contradicts anything in your application, or contradicts your bank records, or contradicts what your accountant already told them—congratulations, you’ve just committed 18 U.S.C. § 1001, making false statements to a federal agent. That’s a separate crime with a 5-year maximum sentence.

Real talk: the government doesn’t need your help. They’re executing a search warrant because they’ve already built enough of a case to convince a federal magistrate judge that there’s probable cause to believe evidence of a crime is at your location. They’re not there to give you a chance to explain. They’re there to gather evidence. Anything you say that helps you will be ignored. Anything you say that hurts you will be used.

And here’s the real kicker—Miranda warnings are not required during search warrant execution unless you’re in custody. So you’re probably thinking, “Well, they didn’t read me my rights, so anything I say can’t be used against me.” Wrong. Miranda only applies when you’re in custody and being interrogated. If you’re standing in your office, free to move around (even though agents are there), then Miranda doesn’t apply regardless. They can ask you questions and use your answers without ever giving you Miranda warnings.

I mean, think about it. You’re scared. You’re not thinking clearly. You’re probably not gonna give a coherent, legally precise explanation of your business operations while federal agents are boxing up five years of your financial records. You’re gonna misstate things. You’re gonna forget details. You’re gonna say “I think” or “maybe” or “I’m not sure” about things that are memorialized in documents they’re about to analyze for the next 6-18 months. And then when those documents contradict your statements, the prosecutor will argue you lied.

So what should you say instead? This exact phrase: “I’m invoking my right to remain silent and I want to speak with my attorney before answering any questions.” Then stop talking. Don’t explain why. Don’t apologize. Don’t say “I’m sorry, I’m just scared” or “I didn’t do anything wrong” or “I want to cooperate but…” Just: “I’m invoking my right to remain silent and I want my attorney.”

Will agents get annoyed? Probably. Will they tell you that “innocent people don’t need lawyers” or “this’ll go a lot easier if you just cooperate” or “we can do this the easy way or the hard way”? Maybe. Regardless of what they say, invoke your right to remain silent and ask for your lawyer.

Bottom line: the “consent trap” is real, it’s deliberate, and it’s destroyed more defenses than any piece of physical evidence ever has. Don’t fall for it. Not even if they seem nice. Not even if they say you’re just a witness. Not even if they say everyone else is cooperating. Not even if you’re terrified of looking guilty. Staying silent is not evidence of guilt. It’s exercising a constitutional right. Use it.

Immediate Steps in the First 24-48 Hours After the Search

The agents have left. They’re gone. Your business looks like a tornado went through it—filing cabinets open, computers missing, boxes of records gone. Your employees are asking questions. Your spouse is panicking. You feel like your entire life just got turned upside down. Now what?

The next 24-48 hours are absolutely critical. Here’s what you need to do immediately, in this order:

1. Get the Property Receipt and Warrant Copies—Agents are required to leave you a copy of the warrant and a property receipt listing everything they seized. If they didn’t give you these documents, call the agent whose name is on the warrant and demand them. You have a right to know what was taken. The property receipt should list each item: “Dell laptop serial #XXXXX,” “5 boxes of financial records 2019-2024,” etc. If it just says “miscellaneous records,” that’s not sufficient and you can object.

2. Photograph Everything—Take photos of the warrant, all attachments (especially Attachment B), and the property receipt. Take photos of your office/business showing the condition it was left in. Take photos of any areas where agents searched. Why? Because later, when your attorney files a Motion to Suppress, you’ll need evidence of what occurred during the search. Memories fade. Photos don’t.

3. Write Down Everything You Remember—But Give It Only to Your Attorney—While it’s fresh in your mind, write down: what time agents arrived, how many there were, what they said, what questions they asked, whether you answered any, what areas they searched, what they took. But here’s critical: don’t email this to yourself or save it on a computer. Give it directly to your attorney. Why? Because if you save it on your business computer and agents later get another warrant, it’s not privileged. But if you give it to your attorney, it becomes part of their work product.

4. Contact a Federal Criminal Defense Attorney Immediately—Not tomorrow. Not next week. Today. Right now. You need a lawyer who specializes in federal criminal defense, ideally someone with experience in COVID-19 EIDL fraud cases. Don’t call your business attorney who helped you form your LLC. Don’t call your DUI lawyer. Federal criminal defense is a separate specialization. You need someone who knows the Federal Sentencing Guidelines, who has relationships with Assistant U.S. Attorneys, who knows the federal magistrate and district judges.

5. Do NOT Talk to Employees or Business Partners Yet—Your first instinct is probably to call your business partner or your bookkeeper and say “the FBI just searched our office, what do we do?” Don’t. Here’s why: by the time agents executed the warrant, they’ve probably already interviewed your employees. Your bookkeeper might have already given a statement. Your partner might be cooperating with the investigation. Anything you tell them now can be used against you because they’re potential witnesses. Talk to your attorney first. Let your attorney decide whether and how to communicate with employees.

6. Preserve Any Remaining Evidence—Don’t destroy, alter, or hide any documents that weren’t seized. If agents took your 2023 QuickBooks file but left your 2022 file, don’t delete the 2022 file thinking “well they didn’t want it.” Destroying evidence after a search warrant is executed is obstruction of justice, a separate federal crime with serious penalties. Just leave everything as is until your attorney tells you otherwise.

7. Don’t Post About This on Social Media—Seriously. Don’t tweet “FBI just raided my business, this is insane.” Don’t post on Facebook asking for lawyer recommendations. Don’t vent on LinkedIn. Prosecutors monitor social media. Anything you post can be used against you. And it makes you look reckless, which won’t help when your attorney is trying to negotiate a favorable resolution.

8. Start Thinking About Business Continuity—If agents took your computers and financial records, you still have a business to run. You still have payroll to process, customers to serve, vendors to pay. Talk to your attorney about whether you can get copies of seized records for business purposes. Sometimes the government will provide copies of non-privileged business records to allow you to continue operations. Sometimes they won’t. Your lawyer can negotiate this.

The 24-48 hour window is about preservation—preserving evidence, preserving your rights, preserving your ability to defend yourself. Every action you take should be defensive and calculated. Not reactive and emotional.

What Happens to Your Seized Business Records

So the agents have loaded 10 boxes of your records and three computers into their vehicle. Where does it all go? What are they doing with it? When do you get it back?

The seized items are taken to an FBI evidence facility. Digital devices—computers, phones, hard drives—are sent to an FBI Regional Computer Forensics Laboratory (RCFL) for analysis. This is where the government’s case is really built. Here’s what happens during the analysis phase:

Digital Forensics (6-18 Months)—Forensic examiners create a “forensic image” of your hard drive. This is a bit-by-bit copy of everything on the device, including deleted files, browser history, metadata, and hidden partitions. Then they analyze it using specialized software to look for evidence of fraud. They’re looking for draft applications that show you knew the information was false. They’re looking for emails between you and whoever helped you apply. They’re looking for Google searches like “how much can I get from EIDL” or “do they verify EIDL applications.” They’re building a timeline of your actions.

This process takes a long time—typically 6-18 months depending on the amount of data and the lab’s backlog. During this time, you probably won’t hear anything from the government. No calls. No letters. No updates. This silence is nerve-wracking, but it’s normal. The silence doesn’t mean the case went away. It means they’re analyzing your data.

Document Review—Meanwhile, a paralegal or investigator is going through your paper records, creating an index, scanning them, and organizing them by category. They’re comparing your EIDL application to your tax returns, to your bank statements, to your payroll records. They’re looking for inconsistencies. “You said you had 10 employees on the application, but your payroll records show 2.” “You claimed $500,000 in gross revenue, but your tax return shows $150,000.” These inconsistencies become the basis for false statement charges.

Witness Interviews—While they’re analyzing your records, agents are also interviewing witnesses. Your accountant. Your bookkeeper. Your employees. Maybe your customers or vendors. They’re asking: “Did [business owner] tell you what to put on the EIDL application? Did they ask you to falsify any records?” These witness statements, combined with the documentary evidence, form the government’s case.

When do you get your property back? The short answer: probably not until the case is resolved, which could be years. If you’re charged and convicted, you probably never get it back. If you’re charged and acquitted, you can file a motion for return of property. If you’re not charged at all, you can file a motion under Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 41(g) after a reasonable time (usually 6-12 months) asking for return of your property.

But here’s the practical reality: most people don’t get their business records back in a usable timeframe. This is why business continuity planning is so important immediately after the search. You need to reconstitute your records, from backups if possible, or by requesting copies from your bank and accountant.

Challenging the Search Warrant—When and How

Can a search warrant be challenged? Yes. Should you challenge it? That depends on whether there are valid grounds and whether the challenge would actually help your case. Here’s what you need to know about challenging a search warrant through a Motion to Suppress Evidence.

Grounds for Challenging a Warrant:

1. Lack of Probable Cause—The warrant application (called an affidavit) must establish probable cause to believe that evidence of a crime will be found in the place to be searched. If the affidavit relies on stale information (e.g., “In 2020, the defendant applied for an EIDL loan” but the warrant is being executed in 2025 based only on that old fact), the warrant might be invalid. If the affidavit contains material false statements or omissions, the warrant might be invalid.

2. Overbroad Description—The Fourth Amendment requires warrants to describe the place to be searched and the items to be seized with particularity. A warrant that says “all records” without specifying what kind of records or what time period is probably overbroad. A warrant that authorizes search of “123 Main Street” when your business is actually a 10,000 square foot building with multiple tenants might be overbroad if it doesn’t specify your specific suite.

3. Exceeding the Warrant’s Scope During Execution—Even if the warrant was valid, if agents exceeded its scope during execution, you can challenge the seizure of items outside the warrant. For example, if the warrant authorized seizure of “financial records related to EIDL loan” but agents took your personal family photo albums, that’s outside the scope.

4. Procedural Violations—Did agents knock and announce their presence before entering (required in most cases)? Did they execute the warrant during daytime hours as specified in the warrant? Did they leave you a copy of the warrant and property receipt? Procedural violations can sometimes lead to suppression of evidence.

The reality is that successfully suppressing evidence from a search warrant is difficult. Courts give a lot of deference to magistrate judges who issue warrants, and there’s a legal doctrine called the “good faith exception” that allows evidence to be admitted even if the warrant was technically defective, as long as the agents relied on it in good faith.

But—and this is important—even if the motion to suppress is unlikely to succeed, filing it serves strategic purposes. It forces the government to turn over the search warrant affidavit (which might contain information about their investigation you didn’t know). It allows your attorney to depose the agents about what happened during the search. It creates a record for appeal if you’re convicted. And sometimes, it reveals weaknesses in the government’s case that can be used in plea negotiations.

Your attorney will need to file the motion to suppress before trial, typically at the pre-trial motions stage. Timing matters—if you wait too long, you might waive your right to challenge the warrant.

Understanding the Charges and Prosecutorial Strategy

What exactly are you being investigated for? The search warrant probably listed multiple statutes. Here’s what they mean and what the government needs to prove for each:

18 U.S.C. § 1343 – Wire Fraud—This is the government’s go-to charge for EIDL fraud. To convict you, they must prove: (1) you participated in a scheme to defraud, (2) you had intent to defraud, (3) you used wire communications (email, internet, phone) in furtherance of the scheme. The EIDL application was submitted online, so the “wire” element is easy to prove. The intent element is where the fight happens. Maximum penalty: 20 years in federal prison, $250,000 fine, restitution.

18 U.S.C. § 1344 – Bank Fraud—If the EIDL was disbursed through a bank, prosecutors might charge bank fraud. Elements: (1) you executed or attempted to execute a scheme to defraud a financial institution, (2) you had intent to defraud. Maximum penalty: 30 years in federal prison, $1 million fine, restitution.

18 U.S.C. § 1001 – False Statements—This is the government’s “backup charge” because it’s easier to prove than wire fraud or bank fraud. Elements: (1) you made a statement, (2) the statement was false, (3) the statement was material (affected the agency’s decision), (4) you made it knowingly and willfully. Notice what’s NOT required: intent to defraud. The government doesn’t have to prove you intended to defraud the SBA. They just have to prove you knew the statement was false and made it anyway. Maximum penalty: 5 years in federal prison, $250,000 fine, restitution.

Here’s a tactical insight that most people don’t understand: “mere noncompliance” with EIDL loan terms is not criminal fraud. If you received an EIDL loan and then used the money for purposes not approved by the SBA—for example, you used it for owner salary instead of working capital—that’s a contract violation. It’s a civil matter. The SBA can demand repayment, but it’s not criminal fraud.

Criminal fraud happens at the application stage. Did you make false statements on the application to get the loan? Did you inflate your revenue? Did you lie about the number of employees? Did you claim the business was operating when it wasn’t? That’s fraud. The criminal case is based on false statements in the application, not misuse of the funds after you received them.

This distinction matters because a lot of business owners think they’re being investigated for “spending the money wrong.” But the search warrant is looking for evidence that you lied on the application. The government is analyzing your business records to prove that your application statements were false. They’re comparing what you said on the application to what your records actually show.

Prosecutors also have a strategy based on dollar amounts. Cases involving EIDL loans over $500,000 are almost always prosecuted criminally. Cases between $150,000-$500,000 are probably prosecuted depending on aggravating factors (identity theft, multiple applications, organized schemes). Cases under $150,000 might be resolved civilly, especially if there are no aggravating factors. This is called “prosecutorial economics”—the government has limited resources and prioritizes larger cases.

But if they executed a search warrant for a case under $150,000, that’s a red flag that there are aggravating factors you might not know about. Maybe they think you submitted multiple fraudulent applications. Maybe they think you used stolen identities. Maybe your case is part of a larger conspiracy. Your attorney needs to figure out why the government is spending resources on your case.

The Timeline from Search to Indictment—What to Expect

It’s been three months since the search. You haven’t heard anything from the government. Your lawyer hasn’t heard anything. Does that mean the case went away? Should you relax?

No. The silence is normal, and it doesn’t mean the investigation is over. Here’s the typical timeline from search warrant execution to indictment (though every case is different):

Months 0-6: Digital Forensics and Document Analysis—As discussed above, examiners are analyzing your seized devices and records. They’re building a timeline, identifying inconsistencies, and preparing a prosecution memo.

Months 6-12: Witness Interviews and Case Development—Agents are interviewing witnesses, sending grand jury subpoenas for additional records (like bank records or third-party verification), and building the case. The lead agent is working with an Assistant U.S. Attorney (AUSA) to determine what charges are supportable.

Months 12-18: Target Letter or Indictment—At some point, you’ll receive either a target letter or an indictment. A target letter is a formal notification from the U.S. Attorney’s Office that you’re a target of a grand jury investigation and offering you an opportunity to testify before the grand jury (you should almost never do this without attorney advice). An indictment means the grand jury has already voted to charge you and an arrest warrant has been issued.

Some cases move faster. Some move slower. The 10-year statute of limitations (extended by the COVID-19 EIDL Fraud Statute of Limitations Act of 2022) means the government has plenty of time. If you received your EIDL loan in April 2020, they have until April 2030 to prosecute you. There’s no rush from their perspective.

This extended statute of limitations was applied retroactively, meaning it applies to loans you received before the law was passed. Business owners who thought they were approaching the 5-year statute of limitations and would be “safe” were wrong. The law changed the rules mid-game.

During the silent period, you’re not just waiting. You’re working with your attorney to conduct your own investigation, identify potential defenses, gather exculpatory evidence, and prepare for whether the case will be resolved through plea negotiations or trial. Early preparation matters because once you’re indicted, the timeline compresses and your options narrow.

You’re Facing This—But You Don’t Have to Face It Alone

Federal agents have executed a search warrant for your business records. They’re analyzing your financial data right now. Witnesses are being interviewed. The case against you is being built while you’re reading this. You have decisions to make, and they need to be made soon.

Your constitutional rights began the moment agents knocked on your door. Your right to remain silent. Your right to legal representation. Your right to challenge evidence obtained in violation of the Fourth Amendment. These aren’t just abstract legal principles, they’re your shield against a federal prosecution that could end with decades in prison.

But rights that aren’t exercised are rights that are waived. If you haven’t already, contact a federal criminal defense attorney immediately. Not next week. Not after you “see what happens.” Now. Early intervention creates options—options to challenge the search warrant, options to negotiate before indictment, options to preserve evidence that might exonerate you.

The government has the FBI, the SBA Office of Inspector General, the U.S. Attorney’s Office, unlimited resources, and 10 years to build their case. You need someone in your corner who knows how to fight federal EIDL fraud cases, who understands the Fourth Amendment, and who can protect your rights at every stage.

Call now. Right now. You’re facing this moment, but you don’t have to face it alone. We’re here. 24/7.
