Unemployment Benefits Fraud

Riverside Unemployment Benefits Fraud Defense Lawyers

California state law provides for strict rules and procedures regarding an individual's ability to obtain unemployment benefits. This also means that state prosecutors are quick to press charges when they believe that someone is taking advantage of the system. This unfortunately leads to false allegations, improper charges and poorly run investigations.

It is important to understand that you are not only facing prison time, fines and a permanent criminal record if you are convicted of unemployment benefits fraud. You may also be required to pay all of your benefits back to the state, and you will likely find it difficult to obtain employment, housing, or any other state benefits in the future. Do not take your charges lightly, and do not face them alone. Reach out to one of our experienced California criminal defense lawyers today.
