David Pflaum is a highly recommended criminal lawyer for embezzlement with the expertise that makes the difference for his client. He provides the legal representation that every person should receive from their criminal defense attorney and delivers the right results.
An embezzlement accusation arises when a person in a position of trust, most commonly an employee, takes money or property belonging to someone else according to Penal Code section 503. These are the elements of the crime of embezzlement.
- An owner entrusted their property to a person
- The owner did so because they trusted the person
- The person fraudulently converted or used that property for their benefit
- They intended to deprive the owner of the property
Effective defenses include the following.
- Insufficiency of the evidence
- Lack of proper book keeping
- No proof of actual loss
- The alleged victim is not credible
- Violation of the right to remain silent
- Incomplete police investigation
- A third party committed the crime
Successful resolution of the criminal case depends on presenting critical information to the prosecution and judge about the strengths of the defense and the weaknesses of the investigation. A direct request to the prosecutor to dismiss the charges based on new evidence may be effective. Diversion is a strategic process in which a client agrees to follow certain instructions from the judge like counseling, community service, restitution that upon completion results in a dismissal of the case. The plea bargain is a beneficial agreement between the defense, prosecution and judge to dismiss or lower the charges, reduce the fines and penalties, and avoid time in custody.
Reach out to the right defender for legal representation that makes the difference.
