In Florida, mortgage fraud and real estate fraud is a growing issue. The government is pursuing cases against straw buyers, homeowners, investors, appraisers and anyone else involved in the real estate transaction in order to curb the rise in these crimes. It is important to hire an experienced lawyer who has handled these cases and knows how to protect your rights.

At the law firm of Cory Strolla P.A., in West Palm Beach, we represent people arrested for mortgage and real estate fraud, including:

  • Overestimating income
  • Overvaluing homes
  • Making false appraisals
  • Making false statements on a mortgage application or HUD statement
  • Engaging in mortgage and real estate schemes

Contact Cory Strolla P.A., for Aggressive Representation

Many mortgage fraud cases result in additional charges of fraud or money laundering. For instance, making a false statement on an HUD statement and then sending that statement through the mail may constitute mail fraud. Getting a mortgage from a corrupt broker may result in money laundering charges. The accused may not even realize he or she committed a crime until the investigation.

If you tell us you did not intend to commit fraud, we will defend you aggressively. We will review bank statements, mortgage applications, and other documents pertinent to your case. We will also review the sale and buying history of the house to determine if fraudulent practices occurred before you purchased it. If you are an innocent player in a larger mortgage fraud scheme, we can have the case dismissed.
