Embezzlement Defense Lawyer in Teaneck or Hackensack, NJ

Facing accusations of embezzlement is a serious matter, and requires that you immediately retain a defense lawyer with the skill to develop a defense on your behalf.

This should take place early in the case, and prior to an arrest if you are under investigation. It is advised that you contact our firm at once if you are asked to answer questions from investigators regarding any financial crimes. We will ensure that your rights are protected throughout the process, and help you to avoid the pitfalls that can occur when federal investigation teams engage in questioning.

These interrogations can be frightening, and the skill with which they are conducted can lead you to making statements that could damage your case in the future. Any investigation regarding a financial crime usually quickly follows with an arrest; you can assume that the interviews are simply an effort to gather more evidence to convict you. We will stand firm in protecting your rights and make every effort to fight for your defense and negotiating on your behalf.
