The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) is a United States federal law that provides for both criminal and civil causes of action. While most think of RICO as a criminal provision, a private individual may bring a civil suit based on the harm suffered as a result of an allegedly criminal enterprise and, if successful, the individual may collect treble (3 x) damages. RICO is an exceptionally complex federal act, and cases involving RICO demand attorneys who have experience with the Act. The attorneys of Crull, Castaing & Lilly have extensive knowledge and experience representing clients in criminal RICO cases, as well as civil.
