About us

The Federal Sentencing Mitigation System Trusted by Professionals Nationwide

Our Federal Prison Consulting & Mitigation Services

Pre-Sentencing Preparation

We support you through every phase of a government investigation, from initial inquiries to formal charges, helping you build a case to demonstrate why you deserve reduced charges or a shorter sentence.

Post-Sentencing & Reentry Planning

We only ask you to do what we’ve done ourselves. Our team helps you prepare for prison, succeed during your term, and build a record proving you’re a candidate for early release and greater freedom after prison.

Reputation & Reintegration

Rebuilding requires owning your past and creating a new record. Don’t suppress bad reviews or press releases. We help rebuild through social media, content creation, and volunteering. Show your value authentically. 

Guiding Justice-Impacted People Through Federal Sentencing and Prison

White Collar Advice proudly supports the Prison Professors Charitable Corporation (PPCC). PPCC partners with federal and state prison systems, impacting the lives of more than 1 million people annually by helping them prepare for employment and success upon release.

Federal Sentencing FAQs

What is White Collar Advice?

White Collar Advice helps people facing an investigation, sentencing, prison, or supervised release prepare in a way others can study and review. Our team helps people stop wasting time, stop guessing, and start creating a record that did not exist before.

Are you lawyers?

No. We are not lawyers and we do not give legal advice. Your lawyer handles the law. Our team helps with the work most people delay until panic takes over.

Are you prison consultants?

No. Prison consultants sell boilerplate information. Our team helps people create something specific, real: a documented record that influences cynical bureaucrats before sentencing, in prison, and after prison.

What makes White Collar Advice different?

This system was built by people who lived it. Michael Santos built it during 26 years in federal prison. I learned it serving my own sentence next to him. We will never ask anyone to do what we have not done and documented ourselves.

When should I start?

Now. Not after charges. Not after the PSR. Not two weeks before sentencing. Delay gives the government more time to define the story while you build nothing.

Is it too early if I have not been indicted?

No. Most people start too late, not too early. If the government is already looking at you, sitting still is not a plan.

Is it too late if I have already been indicted?

No. Starting late is still better than showing up with regret and no documented plan. Begin now.

I have already been sentenced. I am reporting to prison. Can you still help?

Yes. The record you build inside matters as much as the one you built before sentencing. Case managers, wardens, and the parole commission all review what you do with your time. The framework applies from day one inside.

I am on supervised release. Is this relevant to me?

Yes. Supervised release is not the finish line. Probation officers, future employers, and courts all look at what you built after prison. The people who come home trusted are the ones who kept documenting after they walked out.

Can you promise probation or less prison time?

No. Anyone who promises an outcome is selling something they do not control. Judges decide. Probation decides. Prosecutors decide. What you control is whether you build a record you can defend.

What do you mean by "build a record"?

Creating something people can study and verify. Writing. Timestamped work. A narrative. A release plan. A body of work that shows who you are, what you have done, and what you are doing now.

What should I do next?

Study the site. Watch the videos. Join the Tuesday webinar at 11am Pacific. See whether the message connects. If it does, schedule a call. Time is the one thing you cannot recover once it is gone.
