Money Laundering and Fraud Charges Dropped
Florida Criminal Defense Attorney, David J. Joffe represented a woman who had grown up in a small island nation just south the state of Florida. Our client had been duped into depositing monies from a family member who lived there and worked who worked for the national telephone company. Unbeknownst to our client, the Internal Revenue Service, the Drug Enforcement Administration and HIDTA (High Intensity Drug Task force) were actively investigating this conduct. Our client was contacted by law enforcement and immediately called us. Our client was able, through our diligent efforts, to obtain a letter of immunity from the United States Attorney's office and an agreement not to prosecute. The government initially contended that it could in fact indict our client for money laundering, bank fraud and wire fraud. Joffe and Joffe was able to save our client from spending large legal fees and was able to keep the her from ever being charged.
