FBI & IRS-CI RAID Chicago Law Firm — $91M Iran Oil Routed Through Attorney Accounts

FBI and IRS-CI dismantled a $91M Iran sanctions evasion network hidden inside a Chicago trade law firm — exposed by a single wire transfer flag. A junior IRS examiner pulled a low-priority alert in March 2026. What she found unraveled 18 months of Iranian crude oil proceeds flowing through attorney trust accounts. Operation Fiscal Veil — June 18, 2026 — Chicago, Illinois. Three named partners arrested. 34 servers seized. One suspect still missing. The scheme exploited attorney-client privilege as a laundering mechanism — routing $91 million in IRGC-linked oil proceeds through Delaware shell companies and Chicago real estate, hidden inside routine legal billing records. This is the first federal Iran sanctions case where privilege was pierced before the raid. Three partners are indicted. $57 million remains unrecovered. The network associate who vacated a linked property six days before agents arrived has not been found.
