Fraud and money scams are nothing new, but awareness of identity theft increased shortly after September 11. Naturally, people became concerned that credit and identify information might be stolen to aid terrorist efforts.

Defending Your Rights and Your Future
We are an aggressive and committed criminal defense law firm. We know how seriously law enforcement takes identity theft charges, and we take defending them just as seriously. Using a proactive approach focused on early intervention, we defend people charged identity theft and related offenses such as:
- Internet fraud
- Check or credit card fraud
- Signature forgery
- Possession of fake or forged or checks
- Possession of a counterfeit of driver’s license or identity card
In most cases, identify theft involves a conspiracy among a ring of people, and the seriousness of the charges against you depends on the role you allegedly played in the conspiracy.
We will carefully review the evidence that you played a particular role and what activities you allegedly took part in. We often work with experts such as accountants and handwriting experts to review financial records and signatures.
Once we have developed a clear understanding the strengths and weaknesses of the evidence against you, we will waste no time in meeting with the district attorney to negotiate for a dismissal or lesser charges. If it is in your best interest to go to trial, we will fight for you before a judge and jury.
