Yo, I got a letter saying the feds are looking into some business dealings from a couple of years back, and now I am freaking out because this is not like a normal dispute. My regular guy does contracts and leases, but he told me straight up this is way beyond him. What kind of attorney actually deals with these federal cases, and how do I not mess this up?

Anything you say becomes part of their file, and without a lawyer in the room, you are just handing them ammunition while thinking you are being cooperative.

You want someone who lives in that world and knows how federal investigations actually play out. The work of a federal fraud attorney is outlined on this site https://arkadybukhlawfirm.com/ . It explains what that kind of defense involves, from responding to subpoenas to dealing with agents before charges are even filed, so you understand what you are up against instead of freezing and hoping it goes away.
