Fraud

DeMelo Heathcote has the experience you need for fraud and related charges. We have resolved many fraud cases, including fraud over $5,000 and fraud under $5,000.

Judges must take into consideration certain aggravating factors, such as whether the amount defrauded exceeds one million dollars, whether a large number of people were impacted, and whether you are of “high regard” in the community. Additional considerations include whether you held a position of trust or authority, the vulnerability of the victims, efforts to conceal the fraud, and how long it had been occurring.

Fraud cases can be complicated due to the amount of evidence involved, as well as the potential impact that punishment may have on your personal life and career. Contact us for a free consultation.
