Common Austin Fraud Cases We Defend

Fraud allegations in Texas can involve complex financial records, digital evidence and aggressive investigative tactics. Such cases benefit from a clear understanding of state and federal statutes, along with the specific intent elements prosecutors must prove. We defend those who are facing a range of fraud charges, providing strategic guidance tailored to the facts of each individual case.

Many fraud offenses involve accusations of using false information, deceptive communication or unauthorized access to obtain money or property. Below are some of the most common charges brought in Texas courts, and each one carries harsh potential penalties.

  • Mail and wire fraud: Accusations that a person used mail or electronic communication to advance a scheme that involved false statements or deceptive conduct.
  • Check fraud: Allegations often involve forged checks, altered instruments or knowingly issuing checks without sufficient funds to cover the transaction.
  • Credit card fraud: Charges may include unauthorized card use, account takeover or the creation of counterfeit cards to obtain goods or services.
  • Identity theft: Claims that someone has used another person’s identifying information to secure credit, benefits or personal financial gain.
  • Insurance fraud: Allegations that a person submitted false claims, inflated losses or staged events that allow them to obtain fraudulent payments from an insurer.
  • Tax fraud: Accusations of underreporting income, claiming improper deductions or intentionally avoiding tax obligations owed to state or federal authorities.
  • Securities fraud: Assertions that misleading statements, insider activity or deceptive investment practices caused financial harm to investors.
  • Imposter scams: Claims that a person pretended to be a government official, business representative or trusted party to obtain money or sensitive information.
  • Healthcare fraud: Allegations may include improper billing, upcoding, unbundling or submitting claims for services that were not medically necessary or never provided.

Offenses like these carry unique evidentiary challenges, and investigators may rely on digital records, financial data and witness statements to build a case. A strong defense requires a careful review of the government’s evidence, identification of any procedural errors and a clear strategy for challenging intent.
