Loan Fraud

Have You Been Accused of Loan or Mortgage Fraud?

With the housing market in disarray, prosecutors are going after people accused of loan fraud or mortgage fraud with the full force of the law. They are committed to making people pay for these crimes. They are willing to work hard to see that people are proven guilty.

At The Law Offices of Mark J. Werksman, our attorneys understand that the full force of the law can work in your favor as well. In fact, legally, you are innocent until the prosecution is able to prove otherwise. We know how to marshal the law and evidence to defend you strongly against accusations of loan or mortgage fraud.

What is Loan Fraud? What is Mortgage Fraud?

These types of frauds, as well as all other types of fraud, are tied together by one common thing: making some sort of deception in order to obtain favorable results. Some examples include:

  • Home buyers putting inflated income information on a loan application in order to get approved
  • Real estate developers providing deceptive information to banks in order to qualify buyers
  • Mortgage brokers providing false information in order to get a better loan for their clients
  • Real estate agents paying the down payment on a property without letting the bank know

Loan fraud and mortgage fraud can come in many forms, many of them unique. As your lawyer, you can count on us to get to the bottom of these cases, sorting fiction from fact and building a strong case to protect your rights.
