Environmental Crimes Encompass Many Types.

In California, there are several different ways that an individual or business can commit an environmental crime.  They have become rampant throughout the world and The Big Bear State is certainly no exception with its diverse landscape and population.  These types of crimes will only grow in focus as time goes by.

What are some types of environmental crimes?

1.  Wild animal trafficking.  It is ranked #3 world-wide after drugs and guns.
2.  Electronic waste disposal. 
3.  Illegal dumping in waterways.

There are many other examples on a global as well as regional scale.  Environmental crimes may not be “sexy” as it pertains to local news coverage, but they are very real.  San Jose criminal and environmental crime defense attorney William Chestnut knows that as well as anyone.  If you or a loved one has been accused of a California environmental crime call Bill at (408) 298-6990.

There is No Substitute for Experience.

This is so true in most areas of endeavor.  With the years come a sense of confidence and trust because you know that the company or individual in question has “been through the wars” so to speak.  They bring an expertise to the table that someone with only a year or two of experience cannot offer.

San Jose criminal attorney William Chestnut has defended hundreds in our area for over more than four decades.  He has seen and fought for California citizens who have been accused of such things as domestic violence, felony crimes, environmental crimes, juvenile offenses, criminal fraud, drug violations, and so much more.

Attorney William Chestnut knows his way around California Criminal Courts.  He is a proud native of San Jose and stands at the ready when you or a loved one have been accused of a crime.  The California criminal justice system is tough.  You cannot afford to trust just anyone to defend you.  Trust the experience of Bill Chestnut.  Give him a call today at (408) 298-6990.

Maybe the charges are the only thing that’s fraudulent.

What defines a charge of fraud in the State of California?  In our state, fraud is an intentional misrepresentation, deceit, or concealment of a material fact known to the defendant with the intention on the part of the defendant of thereby depriving a person of property or legal rights or otherwise causing injury.

Intentional fraud or deceit occurs when the perpetrator uses deceit to convince the victim to rely on the false facts.  Then the victim reasonably relied on and was harmed by the deceit.  Constructive fraud occurs when the perpetrator misrepresents to the victim that an important false fact is true. 

There is a broad interpretation of fraud in the Big Bear State.  You need a top criminal fraud attorney like William Chestnut to defend you against these charges.  Attorney Chestnut has defended Californian’s accused of fraud for more than 40 years.  Arrange for a free consultation at his San Jose office by calling (408) 298-6990.
