Wire fraud and mail fraud cases, like all other fraud cases, are complex criminal matters that hinge on a prosecutor’s ability to prove that a defendant intended to defraud a victim by making a material misrepresentation by mail or wire transmission.  Any mailing can provide a basis for a mail fraud charge, and any e-mail or phone call can provide a basis for a wire fraud charge.  The key to many of our defense strategies is to develop evidence that the communication at issue was not a material misrepresentation, or that a defendant did not have the required criminal intent to commit the crime charges.  Although the mail fraud and wire fraud statutes are extremely broad, cases involving these charges are often very complicated to defend.  Our office has tremendous expertise at unwinding these intimidating charges and developing and presenting affirmative evidence of innocence, even though the burden of proof always falls on the prosecutor.
 
At the Law Offices of James W. Spertus, we focus on making sure that we develop all of the evidence.  We are familiar with the prosecution’s typical strategies, and we can readily spot the missing pieces of a prosecutor’s case.  We know how to analyze these types of cases, and we can readily identify the evidence that will make a likely difference in the outcome of the prosecution.   Thorough investigation coupled with a compelling presentation is the key to overcoming a prosecution involving mail fraud or wire fraud charges.
