Ocala & Gainesville Identity Theft Lawyer

Florida Identity Theft Defense Attorney

Identity theft is the criminal act of taking another person’s identity for the purpose of obtaining credit, credit cards from banks or retailers, stealing money from a person’s existing accounts, applying for loans in the person’s name, establishing accounts with utility companies, leasing automobiles and residences, filing for bankruptcy, or even obtaining employment. Identity theft offenders also have used unsuspecting victim's identities to commit crimes ranging from traffic infractions to major felonies.
