Identity Theft
Crimes involving identity theft are being prosecuted with more regularity and severity in recent years. Many people do not realize how serious charges of identity theft and related crimes are, and do not retain the services of experienced criminal defense attorneys. This is a critical mistake when facing charges for “white collar” crimes including:
- Mail fraud
- Internet identity theft
- Online credit card fraud
- Bank fraud
- Stolen checks
A good defense attorney must understand the law, the court system and complex financial and business practices to competently defend an individual facing charges of identity theft. The law offices of Jeffrey Rubenstein are experienced at mounting rigorous defenses for crimes related to identity theft, and are committed to protecting the rights of our clients. Because Mr. Rubenstein is a former Los Angeles Prosecuting Attorney, he has years of practical experience and has done extensive work both prosecuting and defending individuals accused of “white collar” crimes, and he puts his inside knowledge of the law and how the system and prosecuting attorneys function to work for the benefit of his clients.
Getting an experienced defense attorney involved in your case during the earliest stages of an investigation is extremely beneficial. Some ways it can help you are:
- Keeping you apprised of your legal rights
- Advising you whether or not you should make a statement to law enforcement or allow them to search your property
- Increasing the possibility that the charges will be reduced or will not be filed at all
- Easing your anxiety over the case and keeping you informed of the progress of the investigation
- Assisting you with surrender and avoiding arrest
