Stolen Identity

Every year there are more than 25,000 New Jerseyans who report identity theft.  This number does not include the thousands of others who do not even know ID theft is being attempted on them.  The public has been filled with alarming information which makes them wary on privacy of their personal information.  With a tight economic climate, these numbers can be expected to increase as more and more desperate individuals turn to criminal actions.  When someone has been charged with identity theft, they are most likely feeling afraid and alone.  They should contact a New Jersey criminal defense attorney who is familiar with  the criminal justice system and uses that knowledge in defending clients.

Theft of another's identity information is almost always considered a white collar crime and it can be tried in both state and federal courts.  Rafael Gomez will fight hard to defend the charges of identity theft in Bergen, Hudson, Passaic or Essex County. Part of that is the dedication to going beyond normal expectation with rigorous independent investigation of cases.  This approach can help ensure that every possible avenue of defense is known and the most optimum strategy can be prepared for when it comes time to settle a case or take it through trial.
