Identity Theft in Gig Harbor

Our Gig Harbor Identity Theft Lawyers Urge You To Deal With These Serious Charges

Washington State prosecutors routinely seek maximum punishments for people who commit identity theft crimes. If you're charged with identity theft, a conviction likely means maximum jail sentences and other penalties that could have a severe impact on your life and the lives of everyone in your family. Even if your identity theft situation involved only a small amount of money, you are still subject to potentially life-altering punishments because these cases are often tried in federal court.

Our Gig Harbor identity theft attorneys are experienced litigators who are dedicated to protecting your rights and seeking the best end result possible. If you're convicted of identity theft , the court is unlikely to offer any leniency and the penalties will be swift and severe. Washington State courts won't listen to excuses, so the quality of your legal representation truly matters. An accusation of stealing another person's identity, regardless of your age or situation, is a serious matter that must be addressed immediately.

At the Law Office of Jason S. Newcombe, our lawyers work diligently to minimize the damage commonly associated with an identity theft conviction. We will thoroughly reviewing your case and put our experience to work on your behalf without delay.

More Information About Identity Theft

Identity theft crimes often involve the purchase of merchandise using another person's financial information, like a stolen credit card, or personal identity. Some crimes that fall into the identity theft category include:

  • Money laundering
  • ID (Driver's License)Theft
  • Check forging
  • Check kiting
  • Fraudulent money transfers
  • Using stolen credit cards for purchases
  • Mail fraud
  • Obtaining merchandise under a false name

Prosecutors seek to reveal how the identity theft crime damaged the victim's credit history as part of their effort to punish the defendant to the fullest extent of the law. Your attorney will attempt to have your charges dismissed, but sometimes this action is impossible, especially if you have prior convictions. The next course of action is to minimize the severity of the charges or the penalties you face. We often accomplish this through a combination of artful negotiations and aggressive litigation.
