With the growth of technology and the expansion of the Internet, identity theft is one of the most frequently committed crimes. Identity fraud can also be committed by a person who receives fake identification information that they knows is fake or stolen.

A person can face up to ten years in prison and also required to pay thousands of dollars in fees and restitution to the victim. If you have been accused of identity theft, you have so much to lose.

Do not increase your risk of loss by not hiring an experienced attorney to handle your case. Please contact my law office immediately so we can establish your defense.

Insurance fraud occurs when an insurance policyholder or service provider attempts to collect insurance payments that they would not otherwise be entitled to receive. For example:

  • Filing fraudulent claims
  • Faking losses
  • Intentionally causing losses through arson, theft or other means
  • Negotiating contracts, or collecting premiums as an agent without authorization to do so
  • Unauthorized fixing of insurance rates

As punishment, a person convicted of insurance fraud will be guilty of a felony and serve time in prison ranging from two to 10 years and/or forced to pay a fine of up to $10,000.
