Fraud

Nashville, Tennessee, Fraud Defense Attorney

Accusations of fraud can be difficult and disruptive to one's life. Not only are many people shocked that governments and other authorities can charge one with any type of fraud, many find it difficult to believe it has happened to them personally.

Fraud is difficult to prove as the prosecution must first establish your intent to defraud and provide evidence of fraud itself, once you have been charged, the only way out forward is trial. Contact me, Thomas Jefferson Drake, an experienced and knowledgeable attorney ready to defend those accused of a crime.

With a Masters degree in business and a background of providing commercial law services to clients, my criminal law practice offers a wealth of knowledge and understanding about the worlds of business and finance as they relate to many types of fraud and other white collar crimes.
