San Diego Organized Fraud Attorney
Experienced Southern California Fraud Defense Lawyer
Organized fraud is an increasingly common occurrence in throughout the United States and the rest of the world. Often organized groups from other countries will defraud Americans using get-rich-quick schemes, phishing or other forms of communication (also referred to as wire fraud) to fraudulently obtain financial information. Companies and organizations within the United States have also been accused of and convicted for organized fraud. A not-for-profit organization or charitable group may be accused of using donations and government grants for personal profit, or may be accused of overbilling to obtain more money than is needed.
If you are under investigation for or have been accused of organized fraud, it is of the utmost importance to contact a capable lawyer immediately. Organized fraud is a federal offense and can carry harsh penalties, including years of incarceration in a state prison, fines and more. San Diego organized fraud attorney James N. Dicks has experience in dealing with federal investigators and prosecutors and won’t back down simply because they use aggressive interrogation techniques or try to intimidate you into accepting a plea bargain.
