Identity theft is a crime that is on the rise in California and throughout the United States. To reduce identity theft crimes, law enforcement officials now aggressively investigate such crimes, and prosecutors aggressively pursue convictions against individuals accused of such offenses.
If you have been arrested for identity theft, it is critical that you protect your rights by retaining an experienced Los Angeles identity theft defense attorney. For a vigorous defense, contact the Law Offices of Daniel R. Perlman in Los Angeles; call (310) 557-1700 or contact us by e-mail.
The Identity Theft and Assumption Deterrence Act of 1998 makes it a federal offense to commit identity theft, which includes the act of using another person’s identification to commit fraud and other criminal acts. Identity theft is a felony and may result in significant term of incarceration.
When people think of identity theft, they often think of related offenses, including credit card theft. Our Los Angeles identity theft defense attorneys defend clients against a wide range of theft offenses, fraud offenses, and financial offenses in state and federal courts.
Being convicted of identity theft or a related offense could result in significant criminal penalties, including incarceration in a state or federal prison. If retained as your counsel, our attorneys will take time to investigate the facts of your case, determine what evidence the prosecution has in its possession and prepare your case thoroughly for the possibility of trial. Simultaneously, we will keep the lines of communication with the prosecution open to determine if there is a way to resolve your case that will help you avoid punishment or minimize the punishment you face.
As a former prosecutor, attorney Daniel Perlman understands what prosecutors want to hear and what they do not want to hear. He understands how to raise defenses that may improve your leverage and use creative measures to achieve compromises with prosecutors that may make a significant difference in the final outcome of your case.
