White Collar Advice Arvostelua 209

Government was asking for 57-71 months, I was sentenced to 15.

5-stars, because I couldn't go higher.

They are so much more than "prison consultants". They are more like disaster specialists, therapists, life-coaches, and friends all mixed together. Working with their team, I produced real, life-changing results during some of the most stressful times in my life.

I couldn't believe that I was involved in the criminal justice system, and I felt like my life was over. Overwhelmed, depressed, angry, and stressed to the max; I was lost. Following their advice, I created a PLAN and took ACTION. Both to earn the shortest sentence possible as well as plan for a successful, meaningful life after prison.

Without their support and guidance, my 15-month sentence doesn't happen and neither does my optimistic outlook for the second half of my life.

I am forever grateful.

White Collar Advice team is a beacon of light in a dark and difficult storm you face when you become justice impacted.
I had a pleasure of working with Sam directly. He is highly knowledgeable and truly cares about each person he interacts with. Everyone in the group steps in to help when needed. They are a great team.

Sam Mangel has been life saver helping me manage the stress and anxiety of handling all that goes into become a white color convict.
He is there when you need him. He sheds light and educates you on the unfamiliar and scary world of sentencing, incarceration, and probation. The peace of mind he brings back to your life is priceless.

I was LOST, but now I'm found!!! I didn't know my designation nor my J & C when I met this team. I was scared, mad, frustrated and lost. Sam and Larry changed my life. I constatnly tell folks I met them 8 months too late. My PSR didn't accurate reflect my situation, experiences, nor my short comings. Through the gudiance and help of this team, I have a good chance of being located 2 1/2 hours from my family versus 7 hours. Additionally, Sam and Larry guided my attorney with drafted orders (Larry) and RDAP information and conference calls (Sam) to assist me with my illness and possible treatment, and presenting to the courts on my behalf. I've learned how to advocate for myself and become productive while incarcerated. Most importantly, my wife feels better about our situation as she listens to the zoom calls with me. Justin, Sam, Larry, Scott and the other team members are now our family. Michael Santos is a genius, and I want to be like him when I grow up.

I've received so much "advice" from so many different "professionals." Until working with Sam Mangel at White Collar Advice, I was getting nowhere. Today I got solid advice and a clear path forward on what exactly I need to do to achieve my goals. Knowledge is liberating. Thanks, Sam!

This is the BEST HELP I had. By working with them, I had a team of experts who have gone through what I was about to go through on my side. They are very responsive to all my calls, emails, and text 24/7. Every time I had a question that scared me, I reached out to them and they would give me an honest answer and not only that, they will go above and beyond to get me prepared. My words will never be enough how great they are and how much I appreciate the whole team. My sincere suggestion to you is that wherever you are in your journey, just reach out to this team. Justin, Michael, Sam, Larry are the people that helped me and you will never regret. I regret not reaching out to them sooner.

Thank you Justin Paperny, Sam, Larry, Brad, Michael Santos & Carole and the whole white collar advice team.

As a defendant facing 41-51 months.
I had my sentencing yesterday. The Judge gave me a year and a day sentence. My judge even stated my narrative at sentencing and also spoke of the charity work I did with Prison Professors as well as me working two jobs leading up to sentencing. Justin emphasized to work as much as you can. I am elated and grateful that I called Justin at white collar advice.

If I just went through my journey with my lawyer alone I feel whole heartedly that I would have received a guideline sentence. I’m not knocking my attorney at all in fact he did a great job.
I called Justin the same day I received a phone call from the government. Justin told me that I had to put in a lot of work from start to finish. I did just that !
When you hire White collar advice they provide you with a blueprint and all the tools tactics and resources for you to get the best possible outcome for yourself. You have to put in the work, after all it is your freedom.
They were always there to take my calls and Give me the best advice. If I didn’t hire white collar advice and just hired a lawyer I would have been lost and my sentence would have been a lot longer. White collar advice are absolute EXPERTS at what they do. The other prison consultants out there CANNOT hold a candle to White Collar Advice.

I encourage everyone out there facing legal challenges whether you are early in your investigation or you have got sentenced pick up your phone immediately and call Justin at white collar advice. It will be the absolute best decision you can make for you and your family.

Thank you kindly, Justin, Michael, Sam, Brad, Larry and the whole team. I’m eternally grateful for all of your guidance, assistance and support.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart

Awesome awesome awesome.
If it wasn’t for you guys I would be sitting in a federal prison cell.
Thank you Justin and the whole team for all you did for me.

Sam has been my point of contact since day one, I enlisted his services after receiving a federal prison sentence and finding out I was going to a higher security facility that I belong in. My attorney at the time was absolutely clueless on what to do and completely dropped the ball… after having my consultation with Sam I knew these folks were the ones for the job and they sure were. Within 24 hours of receiving my retainer they had the necessary paperwork drafted up and got the ball rolling. Within 2 weeks of having them “on payroll” they provided results and I’m going to a low security facility instead of a much more violent and volatile place, I HIGHLY recommend this company to anyone who has legal issues at the federal level!

Going to Federal Prison is not on anyone's bucket list. It is terrifying and the level of bureaucracy is astronomical. These folks take you by the hand, give you a reassurance, and then make you ready to take on the challenge. Their goal is to get you through this with your dignity intact, with a future that is promising. They give honest and frank information. I will be entering my sentence with a clear understanding of what will come. The biggest mistake I made was not contacting these folks in the millisecond that I received the target letter. The DOJ has a 97% conviction rate. Give yourself a chance.

Call them! Hire them! They can help you! I feel incredibly blessed that I found Sam Mangel of White Collar Advice. I was completely lost, confused and felt helpless regarding what to expect after I was found guilty at trial. There was so much to do, so much I didn’t understand and with the pending sentancing hearing coming up, I only felt more paralyzed. I started utilizing all of the helpful free resources and videos on their sites and I knew they could help me. So I hired them and they did exactly that. Sam introduced me to Lawrence and the work began. They defined terms, laid out a solid plan and took me through some very challenging months up to my sentencing hearing. They prepared me for my Pre Sentancing Report, my narrative, helped navigate my character references and took charge of my allocution I would be saying to the judge. They even mapped out the best female prison camp and low security prison for me depending on what my sentence outcome would be. They also helped navigate my lawyers direction for my sentancing hearing. Before meeting Sam and Lawrence I felt so alone. So hopeless. Now I have all the confidence in the world that I have prepared and done all I can do for the best possible outcome. My only regret is that I didn’t call them the second my legal problems began. If you are in the process of being charged, have already been charged, are awaiting a plea deal, trial, or the sentancing hearing is pending, do yourself a huge favor and call White Collar Advice. They have been there, they know what to do and they are the best of the best!! I’m so thankful I was able to make the right decision in hiring them after so many wrong decisions in my past.

Sam Mangel & his team are the cream of the crop. Lifesavers. Do not hesitate to use them - they made a material difference in my life, my outcome and sentencing.

I want to thank Sam for being there for me every time I called, just like he said he would. From Day One, I could call him anytime and get an answer my family and I needed. Besides his knowledge, there were times when I was down, and I just needed to hear that I would get through this, and of course, Sam was the one that could bring me back up.

Lawrence wrote my Narrative, and before we went into Court, my attorney said, "I wanted to let you know that the Narrative you wrote was the best one I've ever seen." So, again a confidence builder that White Collar Advice gave me.

Not only did I hire Sam and his team to do my Narrative and prep me for one of the most challenging things I've ever had to go through, but I used all of the free services from Justin and Micheal's videos to the classes they give us free access. I can't say enough there wasn't a meeting or a time throughout this process where I thought I wasn't prepared. Everything happened just like I was told it would, but I did the work and took the time to learn everything I could.

I could have gotten 99-111 months, but in the end, and I must say because of Prison Professors and White Collar Advice, as well as Sam, Mangel, Lawrence Hartman, Justin Paperny, and Michael Santos, my sentence is 41 months in Duluth which is a Stand alone Federal Prison Camp that I was able to pick because of the advice Sam gave me. Sam tells me I'll be out in 12 months, so a week from tomorrow, I'm turning myself in, and I will do a daily blog and document my entire journey for all to see.

Best money spent hiring White Collar Advice as a huge part of my team.

Sam Mangel, Mike Berlon, and Larry Hartman have been FABULOUS since I hired
this Team. I have had extensive conversations with Sam and Mike and their accessibility, honesty and credibility have been massive benefits for myself and my wife (Sam and Mike have offered their wives as resources for my wife multiple times and she is very thankful for it!!)

I wasn't sure what to expect when I hired "Federal Prison Counsel" to assist me with my scary and very serious charges. I worked with Sam and Larry and they are incredible. Always available to answer my questions. I believe what made an impact on my case was the incredible Character Letters they wrote after interviewing my family, friends and others who supported me. They got to know my story and wrote a Mini Autobiography that I also gave to the Judge. Sam was my go to guy. Didn't matter what time I called, he answered. Larry is the one who wrote everything. Larry's is amazing. Sam schooled me on the do's and don'ts of what to say and not say during my Presentence Report with Probation before sentencing. This is very very important.
I believe in my heart that without their help and knowledge of the Federal system I wouldn't have received the sentence I received. Me changing my life was a great added bonus to my recent sentence too. I was looking at 10+ years in prison. I got sentenced on May 31st, 2022. I got 4 years probation with a $300 fine. I want to thank Sam, Larry and everyone on my team who helped for the last 14 months with my case. I have my Freedom and I get to continue to continuously improve my life and succeed.
I can't "THANK YOU" all enough. I will be your biggest advocate for anyone who is fighting a Federal case and needs added help that the lawyers don't provide. I recommend hiring this group of men along with having an attorney.
You guys are the best❤️💕❣️

It’s far from over but Sam and Brad kept me from tipping over the edge……. Thus far

Sam and Larry helped me though uncertain period in my life. They walked me though step by step how to work with my attorney. I ended up getting a probation instead of years of prison time. All the letters and preparing for the case was valuable tools and contributing factor. Also, Sam helping me with all the questions which helped me guide though unknown and scary time period of my life. Please do watch all their videos and study and put effort to your case. At the end you will be glad you did. The team did wonderful job and im glad I contacted them and worked with them. Thank you! Thank you! And now, I can get my life back on track.

I had a great experience with White Collar Advisors. I believe their guidance was responsible for my receiving a sentence that was only 25% of what the prosecution was requesting. Their help with writing a compelling personal narrative and the assistance they provided individuals who were willing to write character references made all the difference. I followed their formula when I wrote my personal allocution. I believe they focus on the important items that help get a favorable outcome. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Hi =) Though my November 2021 sentencing was repeatedly postponed, I was finally sentenced on 3/3/2022. Though my attorney had submitted his document (including my written narrative & character letters) on my behalf requesting 48 months, when I walked into the courthouse I had prepared myself as best as I could to be sentenced to up to 97 months based on the presentencing report. Minutes before my sentencing hearing began my attorney let me know that some kind of 'sealed motion' had been filed based on information provided during my proffer, and the prosecution has recommended a 15% reduction to my sentence; my attorney quickly mentioned something about 85 months. The sentencing hearing itself was horrible/brutal - which apparently is the job of the prosecution & the judge =\ However, when I was provided the opportunity to speak, I read 'my' statement. After that, the judge did say a couple of things that I took as being as 'kind' as they possibly could be coming from him - and he sentenced me to 70 months. Though I thought I would be so nervous & out-of-it that I wouldn't really know what was going on, I was amazingly & surprisingly completely 'present'. I was most surprised to find that the entire sentencing was only 20 minutes, because I would have sworn I was standing for at least a couple of hours. But I was pleasantly surprised feeling like I had 'prepared' myself as much as I could, which allowed me to be as present as I was.)

I had already requested that my attorney ask that I be able to self-surrender to Dublin in three months, and that he reiterate the RDAP recommendation from the presentencing report. The prosecution asked that I self-surrender in two months. The judge ended my hearing my recommending that I participate in RDAP and that I self-surrender in 2.5 months to Dublin. I received confirmation that I am to report to Dublin Camp on 5/18/2022. Today is my 47th birthday, in 4 days I will be in Dublin, and on 5/24/2022 I will miss celebrating my 25th wedding anniversary with my beloved hubby =*(

Prior to sentencing I had already done multiple calculations with my family and we talked to the attorney immediately after the hearing. Given the 15% credits, my planning to take full advantage of the Second Chance Act and participate in RDAP - I am hoping with everything that I am back home to my family within a couple of years. =*)

Of course I was in shock for awhile... and still am... but I am continuing to stay as positive as I possibly can, and I do 100% intend to do everything that I can to remain this way while incarcerated.

I have wanted to thank you personally for all of the assistance that you provided with the narrative, my allocution & just so very much helpful information & support over the last 11 months. Without your help with the documents, I would never have had the confidence that I've had since last summer. And I needed the confidence not only for myself, but for my daughters (& family). Nothing I write or say could possibly thank you & the organization enough. Though I don't have any idea really what my life will look like over the next few years, in my head and my heart I keep believing that I am going to come out 'better' & stronger than I was. There have been many times over the past year when a realization has kind of 'hit' feeling like I looked a huge fear right in the face and survived; and I have most definitely already made changes to how I live & who I've surrounded myself with. This complete change to my perspective of this entire process & of my future occurred last summer after I found your organization's website - and I've been needing to write this THANK YOU since my emotions have finally calmed a lot since the sentencing. Though of course there is a fear of prison & especially being away from my family for the first time in my life, more determination to remain positive & committed to improvement has slowly been replacing the fear. What I found on your websites gave me hope that I didn't have before, and I continue to comb through them on a daily basis for anything that can even remotely help me and/or my family.

If there is any way at all that I would be able to assist with the organizations' efforts over the next couple of years (or longer!), I would be completely thrilled at any prospect. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you AGAIN =*)

Teamwork is located HERE at White Collar Advice. Recently, I hired their team to assist my legal defense and was facing 20 years. With combined focused teamwork, I was recently sentenced to 3 years, with continued action to reduce my time away from family even today. I cannot speak highly enough of the family at White Collar Advice. They have been in your shoes and know how to utilize all the tools in the system to ensure the lowest sentence.
