Accused of Wire Fraud? You Need an Experienced Wire Fraud Defense Lawyer Now!

If you’ve been charged with wire fraud, time is not on your side. Unless you have a seasoned federal wire fraud defense attorney fighting for your freedom, you face the prospect of decades in prison and financial ruin. While the concept of wire fraud sounds antiquated and conjures images of Morse code, the reality is that wire fraud charges are front of mind for the federal investigators that monitor computer keyboards and smartphones.

What makes wire fraud charges more insidious is that they can be brought for each and every allegation. In other words, if you’re accused of sending out two dozen fraudulent emails, you can be on the hook for 24 counts of wire fraud. In addition, it’s important to know that U.S. wire fraud laws (18 U.S.C. Section 1343) provide U.S. Attorneys with fallback charges when they can’t get other types of fraud charges – like securities fraud or healthcare fraud – to stick. 

A federal wire fraud conviction can be devastating. You are looking at the possibility of up to 20 years in prison and a hefty fine. Sentencing enhancements are also on the table if the fraud is determined to affect a financial institution or be related to a presidentially declared major disaster or emergency. If so, you can be sentenced to up to 30 years in prison and fined up to $1 million.
