Miami Embezzlement Attorney

Defense for Federal Embezzlement Charges

Consulting with an attorney should be the first and foremost action an individual takes who is facing embezzlement charges. Embezzlement is a serious federal crime that may be punishable by up to 30 years in prison along with exorbitant fines, depending on what type of institution, agency or organization was targeted, as well as the value of property involved.

If you are accused of embezzlement, it is necessary to have a skilled Miami criminal defense lawyer on your side to defend your rights and protect your interests in the face of these complex charges.
