Federal criminal cases are extremely difficult to win. Many good trial attorneys, attorneys who regularly get acquittals in state court, have never gotten an acquittal or a dismissal with prejudice in federal court. Acquittals in federal court are as rare as hen’s teeth. Attorneys who've gotten an acquittal in federal criminal court are in the 1% club. I have multiple acquittals and dismissals with prejudice in federal court.
