OFAC Violation
Alleged violations of the Office of Foreign Assets Control carry serious criminal, civil, and financial consequences. At Macey Law, we bring nearly 30 years of experience to defending individuals and businesses against the government’s most aggressive enforcement actions.
Understanding OFAC Violations
OFAC oversees and enforces U.S. sanctions programs, which restrict transactions with certain countries, entities, and individuals. Allegations of violating these sanctions often involve international business dealings, banking transactions, or trade activities. Because OFAC operates under the authority of the U.S. Treasury and works closely with federal prosecutors, these cases demand immediate and experienced defense.
Consequences and Risks
The penalties for OFAC violations are severe. They may include multimillion dollar fines, asset freezes, loss of business licenses, and lengthy federal prison sentences. Even before a conviction, reputational damage and disruption to business operations can be immediate and lasting.
How Investigations Unfold
OFAC investigations are typically lengthy and detail driven. Federal authorities review banking records, international transfers, trade documentation, and electronic communications to identify potential violations. These investigations are often coordinated with multiple agencies, giving the government a wide reach and a significant advantage.
