NEW YORK CITY

We are Providing The Most Compassionate & Personal Federal White Collar Consulting Services

The Leading Federal Prison Consultant in New York City

I’m proud to have helped dozens of New York City-based individuals who find themselves impacted by the criminal justice system. With an understanding of the federal system informed by years of consulting with high-profile white collar clients as well as direct personal experience, I offer unparalleled expertise and personalized guidance to individuals who are facing the difficult realities of the criminal justice system.

The unfortunate truth is that many of my clients come from New York City and the surrounding areas, as the Department of Justice has placed an emphasis on pursuing cases against those working in finance. 

This has put many who work on Wall Street on edge, as they face increasing scrutiny and the potential for severe legal consequences. The aggressive pursuit of these cases by federal prosecutors has created a climate of uncertainty, where even minor infractions can lead to significant legal battles. 

My role as a federal prison consultant is to help clients navigate these complexities with precision and care, ensuring that my clients are not only well-represented but also fully informed of their rights and options at every stage of the process. Working with a federal prison consultant can help not only prepare for the realities of incarceration and re-entry but, importantly, also help with sentence mitigation techniques which often have my clients home in a fraction of the time they are sentenced to.

With the stakes so high, it is essential to have a knowledgeable advocate who can provide both strategic defense and empathetic support, helping clients and their families to manage the intense pressures they face while striving for the best possible outcomes in their cases.

How a Federal Prison Consultant Can Help in Your Financial Crime Case

If you find yourself involved in a securities or investment fraud case, engaging with a federal prison consultant even before you know whether you’ll have to spend time in prison can be of great benefit. The reality is financial crimes are a serious federal offense, often carrying severe penalties including long-term imprisonment and substantial fines, so it’s crucial you prepare for the worst-case scenario. 

 

I offer engagements tailored for those facing prosecution for financial crimes in New York City to help ensure my clients are well-prepared for every stage of the legal journey. Our services begin as early as plea deal negotiation or before trial, helping to build the foundation for a successful sentence mitigation strategy, they extend to sentencing, preparation for federal incarceration or home confinement, and re-entry into society.

 

Ways a Federal Prison Consultant Can Help Pre-Sentencing

For individuals facing charges that carry the prospect of incarceration, the pre-sentencing phase is critical. What you do – or don’t do – can significantly influence the outcome of the sentencing, and make a large difference in terms of time served in prison, or whether you go to prison at all.

I provide assistance during the crucial pre-sentencing phase including organizing character letters and other actions that may positively impact the judge’s decision. These steps are invaluable in presenting the best possible case for a reduced sentence.

Federal Prison Preparation and Sentencing Mitigation

Facing a federal prison sentence is a life-altering event for my clients and their entire families, and proper preparation can make a significant difference in how an individual copes with incarceration. Our firm offers comprehensive prison preparation services, including advice on what to expect in federal prison, how to handle interactions with other inmates and staff, and strategies for maintaining mental and physical health during incarceration. 

Additionally, I work with clients to explore sentencing mitigation avenues, such as participation in programs that may reduce their sentence or improve conditions of confinement. In this capacity, I assisted Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro with preferred housing when they faced incarceration in 2024.

Post-Incarceration Support in New York City

Those who have been convicted of financial crime face a special set of challenges in reintegrating to society after serving time in federal prison. That’s why our services don’t end when the prison term does. We offer ongoing support to help clients rebuild their lives after incarceration. Our post-incarceration support is designed to help clients navigate the often-overlooked challenges of reentry, ensuring they have the tools and resources needed to succeed in their new chapter of life.

New York City’s Top Federal Prison Consultant

New York City is a unique environment where the stakes are incredibly high for those involved in securities and investment activities. The business environment in New York is under constant regulatory scrutiny by agencies such as the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). The aggressive enforcement of financial regulatory laws in this city means that even minor infractions can lead to significant legal challenges. For those facing charges, it’s crucial to have a consultant who understands the intensity of this regulatory environment and can help navigate it effectively.

Facing federal charges in this city requires a consultant who not only understands the law but also the specific pressures and challenges of operating in a high-profile financial center like Wall Street.

Expertise in New York Financial Crimes

 

New York City’s financial sector is one of the most dynamic and scrutinized in the world. Understanding the local market dynamics is essential for anyone facing federal charges related to financial crime. My background in dealing with financial cases including wire fraud, bank fraud, insurance fraud, and securities fraud, gives me a deep understanding of the complexities involved in these legal matters. This expertise isn’t just theoretical — it’s personal. 

 

In 2016, I faced charges of wire fraud myself, which led to my conviction and eventual incarceration. Going through this experience firsthand, I gained invaluable insights into the federal justice system, from the initial investigation stages to trial, sentencing, and ultimately, prison time. 

 

This journey through the legal and penal systems taught me the nuances that can make or break a case. I understand the strategies that prosecutors use, the common pitfalls that defendants often fall into, and the importance of meticulous preparation for every phase of the legal process. My experience allows me to offer not just practical advice but also emotional and psychological support, as I know what it feels like to be in the defendant’s shoes.

Local Experience and Recognition

Having worked extensively with clients in the New York City area, I have developed a deep understanding of the local legal landscape. My familiarity with the procedures and protocols of the federal justice system and the players in New York allows me to offer tailored guidance that is both practical and effective. From the moment of indictment to post-incarceration reintegration, I ensure that my clients are well-prepared for each step of the process, minimizing stress and uncertainty. This knowledge goes as far as knowing which federal facilities in the New York metropolitan area will be the best for you, your family, and your overall smooth journey through the Bureau of Prisons system.

My work in New York City has not gone unnoticed. I have earned recognition for my ability to navigate this complex system and provide clients with the support they need to successfully manage their legal challenges, including in Business Insider, CNN, and local publications like the Danbury News-Times.

Sam Mangel

Federal White Collar Advisor

My name is Sam Mangel and I’m pleased to reveal the back story of how I came to work with people going through the federal justice system. After all, I’m asking you to trust me. It’s only fair that I reveal my background so you will have a better idea of who I am and how I got here. My pathway to working with my team began long ago.

On April 12, 2016, at 7:00 am, I heard a knock on the door of my home. I went and opened it to find about eight people. They wore blue windbreakers with large FBI letters stenciled on them.
