Harrisburg Breach of Fiduciary Duty Defense Lawyers
Accusations of misappropriation of funds by people in certain fiduciary capacities can lead to criminal charges of theft. If you are being questioned or if a more extensive investigation is underway regarding funds that you were responsible for managing, talk to a criminal defense attorney sooner rather than later. Boyle, Autry & Murphy represents trustees, guardians of children, treasurers and accountants in cases involving alleged misappropriation of funds.
Does one of these scenarios describe the circumstances that led to your implication in an alleged embezzling or fund misappropriation case?
- You allegedly misused an elderly person's funds in a caregiving context.
- As a guardian of a child or children, you are accused of misusing funds intended for the child's or children's welfare.
- As a trustee, you allegedly distributed funds from a trust in a manner inconsistent with the intent of the trust.
- Whatever your job title or role, you used your status or position to misappropriate funds donated to a charity.
- You cut yourself or a friend or family member a portion of a funding allotment intended for a certain use (such as roofing an elderly person's house).
- As a stockbroker, you allegedly misused a client's funds in a manner inconsistent with his or her stated goals and preferences.
- As a real estate agent, you allegedly mishandled funds entrusted to you by a homeowner for a specific purpose (such as staging before a home showing), applying the money to another use not authorized by the seller.
Whatever the circumstances, a vigorous defense of your "innocence until proven guilty" is essential. A criminal conviction would ruin more than the current deal and cause you to lose more than your current position. A criminal record could ruin your entire career and have other negative effects for years to come.
