Bankers Want to Blame Everyone But Themselves
In this tough economy, it is becoming more common for bankers to blame anyone but themselves for making bad mortgages or personal loans. Too often, people who default on their loans for legitimate financial reasons are accused of supplying false statements of collateral or income and charged with felony fraud.

If you are facing charges of mortgage or bank fraud, talk to us. We are former prosecutors with more than 46 combined years of criminal law experience. We hold prosecutors to the highest standards of proof that you intentionally supplied false information to a bank or other lender and intended to commit a crime.
In many cases, the bank is a knowing participant in making a bad loan. Prosecutors must prove that your statements were intended to mislead the bank. If they cannot prove that you had criminal intent to hide debt or present false information, all they are really proving is that you made a mistake, but no crime was committed.
Contact us immediately if you suspect that you are under investigation for mortgage or bank fraud.
We represent clients charged with federal and state loan fraud, including:
- Mortgage fraud
- Mail and wire fraud
- Tax fraud

When Should You Get a Lawyer Involved?
Don't wait until the police are at your door. By then, the prosecutor already has enough evidence to warrant an investigation. Generally, fraud charges take weeks and months to investigate. Hire a lawyer at the moment you get the first sign of an investigation. If someone calls and asks you a question about your loan, don't answer. Just call us.
