Embezzlement Lawyer in Riverside
A white collar crime is a crime committed in a business or commercial environment for monetary gain. White collar crimes are non-violent and the criminal acts are generally carried out by people in high profile positions such as managers, executives, or politicians. Embezzlement is the crime of fraudulently taking money or property from a business or employer. Embezzlement crimes vary from very minor, isolated incidents to large corporate schemes.
Before a person can be charged with embezzlement, there must be proof that the property or money embezzled was not his/her original property. Embezzlement crimes involve trespass of property, which means the embezzler did not have the right to possess the property. Embezzlement is a form of theft, and in some cases, fraud.
In the past, crimes like embezzlement were not prosecuted too severely. Today, federal law strictly prohibits white collar crimes like embezzlement. White collar crimes cause the United States’ economy to lose millions of dollars every year. The devastating financial loss has led the government to adapt harsh legal consequences for all white collar crimes, including embezzlement.
If a person is convicted of embezzlement, he/she may be subject to life altering legal consequences such as: home detention, community service, restitution, monetary fines, and costs of prosecution. Aside from financial repayment, serious embezzlement offenders may be subject to lengthy prison sentences and probation.
