Business Disputes
White collar crime allegations can result when a partnership, small company or other business dissolves and one partner is accused of embezzlement or misappropriation in the form of falsefying company books and records, overstating the profit or misreporting expenses/revenue. These business disputes typically result in charges of aggregate theft and potentially severe criminal penalties. When a business relationship has gone awry and charges are filed, we can help.
Embezzlement
White collar crime charges generally involve accusations of embezzlement, including forgery or the unauthorized removal of money from customer accounts.
SEC Investigations into Initial Public Offerings
When a company decides to go public, false statements and misrepresentations regarding profits can be made to bolster the sale of shares. However, when the company doesn't perform as well as projected, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) or Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) can step in to investigate these original financial statements. These SEC investigations into fraudulent initial public offerings are frequently prosecuted as mail fraud or wire fraud cases because the false statements made during the initial public offering were transmitted to investors via mail, the Internet or press releases.
We not only represent clients in Texas, but all over the country, including Oklahoma, Colorado, Illinois, Michigan, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, Florida and New York.
