Los Angeles Counterfeiting Defense Attorney
Have you recently been accused of counterfeiting?
Counterfeiting is generally defined as the duplication or recreation of goods or legal tender to sell or pass off as genuine or original. In the past, much of the counterfeiting crimes committed had to do with money, but today, many designer goods are knocked off and people will attempt to sell them as originals. This can include any type of commercial item such as clothing, jewelry, watches, hand bags, purses, wallets and luggage.
Even credit cards are now duplicated for the purpose of committing fraud with them. Counterfeiting crimes can carry severe and devastating penalties like jail time, heavy fines and a criminal record that may never be eligible for
expungement later on down the road. If you or someone you care about is facing criminal charges of counterfeiting, your first step should be to talk to a proven and knowledgeable
Los Angeles criminal defense lawyer with experience in handling tough cases that has the resources to provide a relentless defense to your charges, in and out of the courtroom.
