With locations in Van Nuys, Lancaster, West Covina, downtown Los Angeles and throughout Southern California, we provide comprehensive client service in identity theft cases. Depending on the facts of your case, we can either fight the charges through trial or negotiate a plea calling for a sentence of restitution and probation. No matter which approach appears best for your situation, you can count on us for dependable advice and an honest assessment of your risk of punishment and opportunity for a favorable outcome.
We have extensive experience with the defense of both state and federal crimes involving the unauthorized use of personal or confidential data, including such information as:
- Social security numbers
- Driver's license records
- Medical information
- Educational information
- Financial information
- Data concerning citizenship, nationality or immigration status
- Eligibility for state or federal benefits
Whether your case involves the possession or use of false documents or access to computer or Internet data in the crime charged, we can develop a strategy for your defense that makes best sense for you. In many cases, our work will concentrate on minimizing your exposure to punishment and protecting your right to a future expungement of the charges.
