Our Experience Matters

Individuals charged with identity theft may or may not know they did something wrong. An unsuspecting person can easily be caught up in a complex cyber crime or internet scheme. It is therefore extremely important to retain the services of a lawyer who understands the nature of the charges against you and knows how to construct a strong defense designed to challenge the prosecution's case.

For more than 30 years, our firm has been defending Californians throughout the South Bay area against all types of criminal charges.

As the biggest defense law firm in Santa Clara County, we have successfully handled identity theft and fraud cases by:

  • Demonstrating that our clients are victims
  • Negotiating with prosecutors for a lesser charge and penalties
  • Advising clients to pay restitution to the victim in order to lessen the criminal consequences
  • Convincing a jury that our client is not guilty

Let us put our experience to work for you.

At the law offices of Hinkle, Jachimowicz, Pointer & Emanuel, we are familiar with law and addiction issues. We often help clients avoid jail and seek treatment for their problems, allowing them to get the help they so desperately need.
