Embezzlement Defense - White Collar Offenses

As an experienced white collar crime defense lawyer, I work diligently to mitigate damages and to defend my clients. Through careful case analysis and investigation, I identify evidence, I evaluate the strength of evidence, and I advise my client how to move forward. I do not judge my clients; I work with them to develop a defense and to keep them out of jail.

Civil Compromises - Employee Embezzlement

Often, embezzlement allegations arise in the context of an employment relationship. Depending on the amount of money embezzled, and depending on whether criminal charges against the employee have been pursued, civil compromise between the employee and the employer may be possible. In a civil compromise, the employee agrees to pay back a certain amount of money, and the employer agrees not to press criminal charges.

In civil compromise cases, I work to ensure that my client is not taken advantage of and not required to pay back more money than necessary. I conduct a thorough investigation and compare the amount my client believes was taken to the amount allegedly taken.
