Descalzo Law

Descalzo Law is a boutique white collar defense firm in Miami that represents individuals and businesses in federal investigations and prosecutions. The practice covers government and grand jury investigations, health care and financial fraud, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, sanctions and OFAC matters, qui tam and whistleblower defense, and the complex civil and regulatory litigation that so often runs alongside a criminal case.

Founding partner Marissel Descalzo has more than twenty years in complex litigation and is recognized by Chambers & Partners, Super Lawyers, and Best Lawyers in America. She earned her J.D. magna cum laude from the University of Miami School of Law, is admitted in Florida and Texas and before the Eleventh Circuit, and practices in both English and Spanish. The firm also represents victims in sexual abuse and trafficking matters.

What sets the firm apart is stated plainly in its own words: it pairs big-firm experience with the attention of a hands-on practice, and it treats clients as people, not case files. That matters enormously to anyone living through a federal case, where the legal exposure is only part of what is at stake alongside a career, a reputation, and a family.

The White Collar Support Group thanks Descalzo Law for sponsoring our conference and for defending people with both rigor and compassion.
