I am being investigated for a fraud

Cordt Cullen Akers
Answered by attorney Cordt Cullen Akers (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Akers Firm PLLC
First off, I'm sorry you've found yourself in this situation.  Secondly, the unfortunate answer is yes. I've represented many people who have used identifying information, credit cards, or checks with the permission of the owner of the information, just to have them turn around and call the police.  What's even worse is if the person using the checks had some sort of misunderstanding as to what extent the permission went.  We're usually able to fix the situation, but not after a long, drawn-out, and scary court process.  Your first course of action needs to be to get an excellent criminal defense lawyer familiar with fraud and white collar crime issues.  ESPECIALLY in these types of cases, it is important to get a lawyer involved BEFORE a charging decision is made by the district attorney.  In your case, that means right now.  Many of us will offer you a free consultation and meeting about your case.  Get in touch with a lawyer or two, meet with them, then hire the one you best believe can help you through this mess.  Hope I helped, best of luck. Regards, Cordt Akers Criminal Defense Lawyer (713) 426-2244

What is the charge for first degree manufacturing with intent to deliver meth?

Cynthia Russell Henley
Answered by attorney Cynthia Russell Henley (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Cynthia Henley
You would face no penalties if the jury at your trial believes you did not know the drugs were there. You are not guilty of possessing something of which you are unaware.

Can I get a theft removed from my record if the case was dismissed?

Cynthia Russell Henley
Answered by attorney Cynthia Russell Henley (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Cynthia Henley
Yes the case can be expunged because it was dismissed. You will need to hire a lawyer, though, because it is a rather complicated procedure that involves filing a lawsuit in civil district court against all parties who have any sort of record of the case. The lawyer will ensure that all parties are notified so that the case is removed completely from your record.
