How We Help You Face Fraud and Forgery Allegations

When we handle your fraud or forgery case, we begin by conducting a thorough investigation of the entire matter. We interview relevant participants and witnesses. In some cases, we also work with a forensic appraiser who analyzes the dollar amounts allegedly taken. We also may investigate other alleged participants in identity theft, fraud and other matters.

We will help you understand your bargaining position and the potential consequences you face. We may make pretrial motions to dismiss the charges, suppress evidence, or to obtain other relief. Sometimes, in credit card or forgery cases, it is possible to have the charge negotiated down to another, lesser charge. We also consider matters like negotiating restitution — making sure that our clients are never forced to pay for more than they should.

Most importantly, we take appropriate and timely action in your case. Timing is critical in Georgia fraud and forgery cases, so we place special importance on resolving issues as quickly and efficiently as possible.
