State v. Mr. M. (DMC No. 6028)

REDUCED | FRAUD SCHEMES/THEFT  – Mr. M was charged with ten counts of Class 2 Felony Fraud Schemes (i.e., Mortgage Fraud).  The State had alleged that Mr. M was a loan officer who issued fraudulent loans to either unknowing adults or minor children which resulted in a total loss of $1,500,000.00.  We ultimately resolved his case with a plea agreement to a single count of Class 4 Felony Forgery, which involved four years of probation, $9,999.99 of restitution (i.e., below $10,000.00, thereby avoiding any deportation issues), and two months of jail with work release.

State v. Mr. R (DMC No 9261)

REDUCED | SECURITIES FRAUD / THEFT – Mr. R was a prominent estate planning attorney in Scottsdale who was charged with 103 Felony counts ranging from Sale of Unlicensed Securities, to Fraud Schemes and Theft.  Mr. R was an unwitting partner to a concert promoter who was selling investment contracts with a high rate of return.  Mr. R invested his own money, his family’s money, and assisted in many of his clients investing their money with the promoter.  Eventually, the promoter stole $25,000,000.00 and absconded.  We were able to demonstrate that Mr. R was also a victim, who should not be treated as a co-conspirator (due to the fact that he also lost large sums of money).  Ultimately, his case was resolved with four counts of a Class 6 Open Felony for Solicitation of Sale of Unregistered Securities.  On the day of sentencing the judge designated all 4 felony counts as outright misdemeanors, and placed Mr. R on what became unsupervised probation with a low level of restitution.  No jail time was involved.
