Mortgage fraud is a very serious matter that isn't usually ignored. Whether you are applying for a mortgage or trying to work with someone to get them one, you have to ensure that every statement you make is factual.
Your defense strategy can't be a hodgepodge of points
All criminal charges must be taken very seriously by the defendant. Unfortunately, this country has become pretty complacent when it comes to criminal defense matters. This can actually harm the defendant because their case might hinge on nothing more than a hodgepodge of guesswork.
Don't take a risk on a last-minute defense
White collar crimes are some that often come with considerable evidence against the person facing the charge. The paper trail in these cases is often lengthy, which can make it difficult to impossible to try to throw a defense plan together at the last minute. Instead of taking a risk on that, you need to start planning your defense as soon as you are aware that you are facing criminal charges.
