Types of Fraud
Fraud refers to actions that are perpetrated to intentionally deceive others, usually made for personal gain, such as money or property. Our firm handles all types of fraud cases, including (but not limited to) the following:
- Mail fraud
- Bank fraud
- Insurance fraud
- Bankruptcy fraud
- Counterfeiting, of currency, documents, or valuable goods
- Embezzlement
- Check fraud
- Credit card fraud
- Government fraud
- Forgery
- Identity Theft
- Investment fraud

- False billing
The penalties for these various crimes depend on the charge and how it is classified. Felony charges usually incur harsher penalties than a misdemeanor. Usually, however, if you are convicted of fraud, you can expect to have to pay any lost money or damages. You may also be facing huge fines, which can be as high as hundreds of thousands of dollars, and imprisonment. The penalties are typically in proportion to the damages caused. The more people who were defrauded and the more money lost, the harsher the penalties.
