Michigan Fraud Crimes Defense Attorney

Protecting Your Freedom and Reputation.

Fraud charges are serious. Whether you’re facing allegations of identity theft, financial fraud, or benefit-related fraud, these cases often involve lengthy investigations, aggressive prosecution, and the threat of severe penalties — including prison time, massive fines, and long-term damage to your name and career.

At Avanti Law Group, we understand the high stakes involved in fraud-related crimes. We also know that not every allegation is what it seems. Financial records can be misinterpreted, misunderstandings can look like criminal intent, and sometimes people are wrongly accused — even set up.

That’s where we come in.

What’s at Stake in a Fraud Case?

Fraud crimes are considered crimes of dishonesty, which can have devastating consequences far beyond a criminal sentence:

  • Jail/Prison time
  • Restitution and significant fines
  • Permanent criminal record
  • Loss of professional licenses or employment
  • Immigration consequences, including detention, inadmissibility, or deportation
  • Loss of reputation, business standing, or public trust

Even if you haven’t yet been charged, early intervention is critical. If you are under investigation, do NOT speak to law enforcement or investigators without an experienced attorney by your side.

Our Approach to Fraud Defense

Fraud cases often hinge on complex paper trails, digital evidence, and intent. Prosecutors will build their case with documents, financial records, emails, surveillance, and witness testimony. Our job is to tear that case apart piece by piece — using our own team of experts, investigators, and forensic accountants when necessary.

We’ve successfully defended individuals charged with high-value white-collar crimes, benefits fraud, and federal financial offenses. From pre-charge investigations to jury trials, we know how to protect your rights and your future.
