Our client was an employee of a well known Canadian Firm. He was alleged to have defrauded millions and wired the money to Europe. A large private investigative company analyzed the hard drives of the employees. Our client's work computer was found to have remnants of documents that were produced to facilitate the fraud. Our thorough investigation of the findings of the investigators and exhaustive review of the evidence, together with diligent preparation for court obtained a win for our client and congratulations from the police officer in charge of the investigation. Fraud is theft by deceit. Quite often it is difficult to prove. There is usually a gap in the prosecution's case in a fraud case. This gap can be found by experienced and knowledgable counsel.

This is why the police put a premium on statements that they obtain from people who they accuse. Think about it. If the police have such a good case against you, why do they want to talk. They want you to say something that they can use against you. So don't . People usually believe that it is ok to speak to the police if they are innocent. This is not true. It is never the right thing to speak to the police. The police are not interested in establishing or investigating the truth. They are there to make a case against you. Speaking to them will never do you any good but it is very likely to do you harm. The policer are required to tell you this. "You are not required to make a statement but anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law."
You have heard this caution hundreds of times on television and in movies. It is true. You don't have to say anything, so don't SILENCE IS GOLDEN. Please invoke your right to silence. You cannot talk your way out of trouble but you can easily talk your way into deeper trouble.
