Federal Mortgage Fraud Criminal Defense
Because mortgage fraud involves federally insured financial institutions, it is charged as a federal crime. If you are facing these charges, be certain that your lawyer has the federal court experience necessary to protect your rights. In addition to mortgage or real estate fraud, you may face associated charges such as bank fraud, falsifying loan documents, illegal underwriting or using straw buyers.
