Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida

Re: FBI criminal investigation

I think seeking representation at this point would be the right move.

Re: FBI criminal investigation

You should most certainly be contacting an attorney. They may be able to prevent an indictment from issuing. Fraud is a very serious charge.

You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such nformation, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

A Quit Claim Deed takes precedent over the Last Will and Testament because it takes the property out of the estate and is not part of it. Unfortunately, it is often not the best way to transfer property from one relative to another.

If the FBI is investigating this matter, you should immediately contact an attorney to represent you. Many people do not realize that an attorney can often be of greater value to a client prior to suit being filed than after. Many cases can be won before ever being filed by having good representation.

ABSOLUTELY. The guy I share space with does this kind of stuff and he is in the office right now. He's a good guy and I'm sure he can either help you or refer you to someone who can. His name is Tom Gano and he is in West Palm.
