In some cases, a defendant may simply have wanted to buy a home as his or her residence. In other situations a defendant may have been seeking to buy and sell multiple homes for profit. While many defendants in such cases are home loan applicants, a business owner, developer, real estate agent or other individual may also be charged with mortgage fraud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Contact_a_Los_Angeles_Mortgage_Fraud_Defense_Attorney_Today\"><\/span>Contact a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/danielperlmanlaw.com\/attorneys\/daniel-r-perlman.shtml\">Los Angeles Mortgage Fraud Defense Attorney<\/a>&nbsp;Today!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have been charged with mortgage fraud, it is critical to protect your rights by retaining an experienced criminal defense lawyer.

A mere mistake is not a crime; you must have had an intent to defraud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the prosecution has an overwhelming case and you do not wish to fight your charges at trial, we are highly skilled negotiators who can seek a favorable resolution to your case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What often prompts a mortgage fraud investigation is that a defendant has defaulted on his or her home loan. In such cases, restitution may be a useful tool if available to potentially secure a favorable resolution on behalf of the defendant. Even if restitution is not available, there are numerous ways that our attorneys can seek a resolution to your case that may help you significantly minimize the potentially harsh penalties often associated with a mortgage fraud charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Contact_Us\"><\/span>Contact Us<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To schedule a free consultation with one of our Los Angeles mortgage fraud attorneys, call&nbsp;<strong>(310) 557-1700<\/strong>&nbsp;or contact us by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/perlmancohen.com\/contact\/\">e-mail<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mortgage fraud is a rising concern of law enforcement officials and prosecutors.
