As I laid awake in the middle of the night eating Oreo cookies, facing the unknown of going to federal prison, I stumbled upon Justin. I watched every video, and absorbed every word. I downloaded the free book. Finally, I made the call. Justin’s advice resonated with me because he is a former college athlete as am I. He introduced to me the idea of preparing, and having a purpose while in prison. My time in prison was purposeful and useful. Prison is an extremely difficult place where preparation is key, and I feel like I am better off now than I was before I entered prison. Having a plan, anticipating pitfalls, developing a reach back capability, understanding there is life after prison, and understanding the impact prison has on the family dynamic. I appreciate the value Justin and Michael contributed to my preparation.

Wow. I came across this site when researching about my federal case. I was feeling defeated, depressed, and hopeless. Sam, Larry and the rest of the team have been nothing short of amazing. They answered all of my questions and quickly helped me come up with a plan for my case. I don't know where I would be without their help. Now, if I could get my attorney to pull his head out of his ass and execute this, I would be all set.

Justin Paperny is a man who has very valuable life experience and excellent insight, and he goes out of his way to share it with those going through the criminal justice system, and others so they may never have to experience the criminal justice system in the first place. He wants people to learn from him and avoid making some of the same mistakes he made. Justin cares deeply for the health and well-being of all of his clients, and it shows through in all of his writings, videos, and conversations. If everyone listened and heeded his advice, almost every aspect of the justice system would work out better for all involved. From his very first lesson of "Stop making things worse," through his next steps of "Seek good counsel," and "Be honest with yourself and your lawyer and really accept responsibility for what you did," and continuing all the way through sentencing and beyond, his wisdom and advice are absolutely practical, no-nonsense, and very productive. His focus on accepting your reality for what it is, only trying to control the things that are within your control, and always working to make things better, both now and in the years ahead, will help guide you and keep you on track throughout the entire process.

I began working with Justin Paperny and the WhiteCollarAdvice.com team at the end of 2020. I was already 2yrs into the “Federal Indictment Process” as my office was raided by the FBI December 2018 and I entered my plea agreement December 2019. By December 2020, I had already watched a number of videos and read several articles by Justin and his team. I had even obtained some of their free resources. I was so impressed by the positivity and encouragement contained in these materials I scheduled a call with Justin. I can still vividly remember at the conclusion of that call my wife and I looked at each other with renewed enthusiasm and hope that we had not felt in quite some time. Justin and Brad Rouse immediately began working with me to achieve the best possible outcome. Justin and Brad focused me and my energies on the day I will be released from prison and making sure I am able to succeed after this difficult time of my life. They continuously let me know that this is only a slice of my life and will not define what happens to me or my family. They were supportive and encouraging and also very very honest about what to expect through the process. The WhiteCollarAdvice.com team assisted me in preparing a powerful personal narrative and genuine and specific character reference letters. The team helped me prepare for my probation interview and provided feedback to my Pre-Sentencing Report. I continued my employment and my volunteering activities and remained active in the community while supporting my wife and kids. At my sentencing hearing I can assure you I received the best possible outcome as a result of the work I put in with Justin, Brad and the team. The judge was absolutely able to see me as an individual deserving of compassion and even referenced several comments from my personal narrative and my various character reference letters. Upon telling Justin about my sentencing outcome . . . he instantly responded, “we must prepare you for early release”. I have less than 90 days before I surrender to the BOP and I expect to use much of my time working with WhiteCollarAdvice.com to ensure I am back home with my family as soon as possible. Do yourself and your family a huge favor . . . work with Justin and his team and approach this process with enthusiasm and hope. You will not regret it.

In the darkest moment of an otherwise pristine life, Sam, Justin and the entire white collar advice team were not only there to guide me through the legal process, but to put me at ease that eventually, I would get through this. If you have the money, there’s no better investment you can make when going through an indictment. If your lawyer won’t hire them, fire your lawyer. Lawyers dont always focus on the most important things in a case, like getting you home to your family as early as possible. That’s all these guys do. I did 10.5 months on a 37 month sentence because of their guidance. They will also help guide you towards a path that will allow you to turn this experience into a productive time in your life. The only mistake I made was not calling them sooner. The earlier you get them involved the more they can do to help. If I could give them ten stars I would.

I am pleased to write this review of Justin Paperny and his team at White Collar Advice. Justin and his team helped ensure I had a positive outcome at my sentencing—that sentencing ensured I avoid going to federal prison. During these past, long, 3 1/2 years since I plead guilty to antitrust violations, I have spent numerous hours reading and watching content provided by Justin and his team at WhiteCollarAdvice.com. The key was not just looking at the information, but taking the time to work with Justin and his team to implement the advice. There were so many lessons in there that helped me do the things necessary that brought me to the end result which ended up being home confinement & community service Vs the potential of one - two years in prison that I was expecting and fully believe the judge was prepared to hand down when the hearing started. Especially helpful was the personal narrative that Justin, Brad Rouse and the rest of his team helped me write. Securing strong personal letters from family, colleagues and friends (just enough, but not too many) also helped. And finally, having a heart-felt personal statement that I gave during the sentencing hearing that focused on my crime, my remorse, and my desire to what I could to try and make amends Vs trying to place blame on others. The judge definitely stated that he believed what I was saying in that statement. Again, I would like to thank Justin and his team at White Collar Advice. Please let me know if there's ever anything I can do to help support your great group in the future. Steve Hodge

If you are reading this it is probably because you are now involved in the criminal process for white collar crime, or you have a family member that is. You are having feelings of regret, shame, guilt, anger and you are scared. You have a criminal attorney who you have retained but you still feel lost. You need to know more information about what lies ahead for you – and your lawyer is not all that helpful (and come with a hefty hourly rate). You research on the internet – but what is really true? Does it apply to you? This is how I was feeling. But early on in my case I received an envelope in the mail – a marketing piece explaining how White Collar Advice could help me. I thought about it for a few weeks and even asked my attorney about hiring a firm like them. He told me not to and that I would not need such a thing because he would do the same things they could. I disagreed with him and reached out to the White Collar Advice team. I had a call from Sam Mangel within an hour. We talked for about 30 minutes and when I hung up the phone, I felt a feeling of relief. It’s not that Sam promised that all would be fine (he did not) – but he laid out my new reality for me in easy-to-understand words – not the lawyer lingo. I understood more from Sam in 30 minutes than I had from my lawyer after several meetings and phone calls. I have continued to work with Sam, Michael, Larry and others on the team for almost two years now. They helped me write my narrative, helped me with my character letters, helped me with my statement I read at sentencing and will continue to help me even after I am incarcerated. They plan, they organize, they make sure everything gets done – things I would not have even known about. For example, the Friday afternoon before my sentencing on Monday my attorney reached out to me and mentioned that if I wanted to I could read a statement to the Judge at sentencing. Could? Of course, I would! But to give me this information with two days to write it?? Thank God for Sam and the team – thanks to them I already had my statement written and in hand two weeks prior to my sentencing date. As you can see, I cannot say enough about the entire team at White Collar Advice. Every single person you will speak to or have contact with has been through this process. They know what you are feeling – they have been in your shoes. As a female I had specific questions on a call one day with Sam. He got off our call and then set up a call for me to talk to another female who had recently been released from prison. I was able to talk with her and she answered my questions about the reality of being behind bars. This was so helpful! Do not put your head in the sand and feel sorry for yourself – it does not work. We have made mistakes – but we are still good people. We are in this situation because we made bad choices. This is your opportunity to start making better choices. Hire White Collar Advice. This will be the best money you will ever spend – I truly do believe that. Please do not rely on your attorney to keep you informed of this process – they have not been through it and you are just another client to them. If you want the best possible outcome you need to contact White Collar Advice immediately – start taking the steps you need to make things right.

I’d like to begin by saying what an invaluable resource Justin and his team at White Collar Advise have been to me. After being served with a target letter by the federal government, I was in such a fog as to what was actually happening to me and how my life would dramatically change. I was completely ignorant of the seriousness of my situation and the impact it would have on my family and everyone I cared about. After consulting with some attorneys, I slowly realized the trouble I was potentially in. I was being investigated for money laundering by using crypto currency instruments. I was genuinely overwhelmed by the lack of knowledge by some of the lawyers I initially hired. Through several months of research I discovered Justine and his team on many YouTube videos. The amount of free education that his company provides through his videos is incredible. I watched hours until I really got a solid grasp of what was happening to me and what to expect. After spending money on a few attorneys and not getting a lot of the answers I needed, I reached out to Justin and began my journey of bringing my life back on track. Justin and his team have decades of experience in dealing with all facets of the justice system. I want to not only thank Justin but other key members of his great team. Michael Santos , Brad Rouse and Sam all worked together ensure that I was well informed and overall prepared for the process I was about to go through. They genuinely care And will give you honest answers and advice based on many clients they currently have. From the beginning of my ordeal to the time when I had to face a judge in court, Justin and his team were there with help and advise whenever I needed them In the end, after I took a plea deal, my guideline range put me at a potential sentence of 52 to 72 months in custody I sincerely believe that because of the dedicated work and knowledge that Justine’s team brought fourth that I was sentenced to only 36 months. And because of the work they did and the knowledge they gave me I plan to enroll in the RDAP program and potentially be released within 12 months after surrendering myself The piece of mind that’s comes with working with a team that know the Ins and outs of the justice system helped me get through this ordeal in many ways. I am within days of surrendering to federal prison and I go in with the support of Justin and his team even now. Their support will continue by consulting me about what I need to know through the whole process of being in custody. Teaching me what I need to focus on and assisting me in any way they can to make my detention as short as possible. I cannot express how grateful and relieved I am to have their support. My main advice is to not go at this alone and to seek professionals like Justine and his team to help on all facets of the Justice System and all it entails. If your in need of consulting and find yourself not understanding or needing answers to your situation with the federal government, I cannot recommend Justin and his team enough
