Mortgage/Real Estate Fraud

Oklahoma Mortgage Fraud Defense Lawyers

With the current state of the housing market, it is possible to become entangled in a mortgage fraud scheme or real estate fraud scheme. The government is vigorously investigating and pursuing indictments to hold real estate professionals and other individuals responsible. At Eddy Law Firm, in Oklahoma City, we understand the intricacies of various mortgage fraud schemes and know how to provide clients with the aggressive defense representation they need. Contact our criminal defense attorneys at Eddy Law Firm to schedule a consultation.

Our law firm defends mortgage brokers, real estate brokers, appraisers, lenders, real estate agents and other individuals who are under investigation or are facing criminal charges for mortgage fraud, real estate fraud or broker fraud. These fraudulent schemes often involve:

• Inflated property values: conspiracy in which property is purchased, fraudulently appraised and sold for more than fair market value
• False mortgage applications: a mortgage application is intentionally submitted with false information in order to qualify for the loan (when the buyer would not have otherwise qualified)
• Fraudulent statements regarding the sale: conspiracy in which a seller pockets the profits of a sale without making the promised repairs

Aggressive Mortgage Fraud Defense

In order for the prosecution to succeed in obtaining a conviction, it must be proved that you intended to defraud the alleged victim. Our criminal defense lawyers carefully analyze all aspects of the case in order to determine the most effective defense strategy. Often times, a case can be resolved simply because there is insufficient proof that there was actual intent to defraud.

Protection of Your Professional License

When a real estate agent, mortgage broker or other industry professional faces allegations of fraud, a subsequent action may arise with the Real Estate Commission. If not handled professionally and effectively, your license and your career may be in jeopardy. Our attorneys have experience representing clients before the Real Estate Commission in Oklahoma.
