Being charged with identity theft can be difficult, but with experienced legal counsel on your side you can fight for fairness. Get Attorney Paz in your corner and protect your rights.
When people hear the words “identity theft” they often think of an online hacker accessing someone’s credit card information. The truth is, these charges can be levied in situations much more nuanced than that. Don’t let these charges negatively impact your finances and reputation; allow
Attorney Paz to fight for you and work towards your case’s best possible outcome.
In order to be convicted of identity theft in the state of Connecticut, the prosecution must prove that you 1) obtained or used another person’s personal identifying information without their permission; and 2) did so with the intent to defraud them or commit a crime. Personal identifying information includes (but is not limited to) a person’s:
Name
Address
Birth Date
Social security number
Driver’s license or state ID number
Bank account number
Credit card number
The intent to defraud can be difficult to prove, so with an experienced criminal defense attorney on your side, you have a chance of successfully fighting these charges.
The penalties for identity theft in Connecticut depend on the value of the property or services obtained and will also depend on the victim's age. Identity theft charges are typically classified as
felonies of varying levels and can carry with them penalties of up to 20 years in prison, fines of up to $15,000, and probation. In addition, those convicted may also be required to pay restitution to the victim of the identity theft. Get your best defense together to fight identity theft charges and minimize penalties by working with an experienced attorney you can trust.
