When people come to us for criminal defense, it is usually during the worst time in their lives; they are worried, confused and stressed. In 2020, American insurance companies collected almost $1.3 trillion in premiums. As a result, they place enormous political pressure on local authorities to prosecute seemingly small insurance fraud matters to the fullest extent of the law. The “fullest extent” of Florida law is pretty full in this area. The potential penalties are as high as thirty years behind bars. This pressure, coupled with a prosecutor’s almost unlimited resources, understandably causes many of these fraud defendants to lose heart. The courageous Orlando federal insurance fraud lawyers at the O’Mara Law Group never lose heart. No matter how long the odds look, our experienced professionals know that insurance fraud cases have lots of moving parts, so things are almost never as bad as they seem. That experience helps us break down the charges against you, find their weakest point, and exploit that weakness. Even if the state can establish legal guilt, which is a very big “if,” our professional team can almost always reduce the charges and/or penalties.
