Legal Question in Criminal Law in Illinois

Home Repair Fraud

Someone I know has been charged with 8 counts of Home Repair Fraud. As far as i know, they are all considered Class 4 felonies except one. It was upgraded to Class 2 because it involved an elderly woman. He was also charged with theft, which was classified Class 2.It was in 3 different Illinois counties. Can he get prison time for this? Thank you

Re: Home Repair Fraud

Hello. Your friend is charged with some very

serious offenses. Yes, he can get prison time

for this and he needs representation. Hopefully

he will not talk to the authorities without an

attorney. I cannot over stress the importance

of your friend getting an attorney now, if he

does not already have one. I hope my answer

is helpful. Will be happy to answer any additional questions that you may have.
