Practice Areas

Insurance fraud is relatively common, although not always deliberate. In fact, it’s rather easy to make an innocent mistake when filing an insurance claim or filling out the copious amounts of paperwork required to obtain a policy. Still, jurors tend to assume guilt, frequently believing that those who are accused of insurance fraud are driven by nothing but greed. Depending on the particular circumstances of the case, individuals who are convicted of insurance fraud may face serious penalties, including jail time and more.

What Is Insurance Fraud?

Insurance fraud occurs when an individual makes a deliberately false insurance claim for some kind of gain. Common types of insurance fraud include:

• Inflated property loss or disaster relief claims
• Planned arson
• Staged vehicle accidents
• Fake worker’s compensation or life insurance claims
• More

Not all types of insurance fraud, however, involve intentionally deceptive claims. Someone who innocently provides erroneous information or makes a minor oversight when filling out paperwork may also be charged with insurance fraud.

An insurance fraud conviction may result in heavy fines, a criminal record, incarceration, and/or probation. Given such harsh penalties, those who have been charged with insurance fraud should always seek the counsel of a skilled and aggressive criminal defense attorney.
