Los Angeles Bank Fraud Defense Attorneys

Southern California Federal Criminal Defense Lawyers

Bank fraud is committed when a person provides false information to a bank. This can involve false information regarding income, value of assets or other items listed on a home loan, real estate application or any other type of signed document or application. In the state of California it is a felony offense to commit bank fraud and these charges are tried in federal court.
