Defending Against Complex Wire Fraud And Mail Fraud Charges

Wire fraud and mail fraud can severely affect a victim’s financial well-being, which is why prosecutors and judges take a hard line when these charges are filed. The penalties attached to a wire or mail fraud conviction are serious, as each count may carry up to a $250,000 fine and a substantial prison sentence. As a result, if you are convicted of sending three fraudulent emails or letters, you could face up to $750,000 fine in addition to your prison time.

Successfully challenging mail or wire fraud charges takes an extensive understanding of federal laws and the criminal process. Criminal defense attorney Christopher A. Wellborn, P.A. has decades of trial experience in courts throughout South Carolina. He draws on this background when advocating for defendants confronting straightforward and intricate criminal matters.
