Embezzlement typically involves large amounts of money changing hands illegally through larceny, "skimming," the creation of dummy vendors or suppliers, and various schemes to obtain money in an unlawful manner.

Committed to Excellence & a History of Success
Embezzlement is generally defined as theft by deceptive practice or by conversion committed by an employee or professional who enjoys a position of trust. Fraud and embezzlement charges are extremely serious. Cases may be brought in either state or federal courts. Many employers are content to resolve embezzlement cases without the expense of a trial. If cases are resolved through negotiation, sometimes with restitution, investigations of your activities may cease before charges are filed.

When I found myself facing multiple federal charges, I honestly thought my life was over. I was woken out of my sleep while lying next to my newborn at 5AM when they came to arrest me. It turned my world upside down. After looking at the Statistics, the probability of getting a dismissal in a federal case is around 5% and acquittal even lower, I felt hopeless.
From the moment I began working with Mr. Lotito, everything changed. He is not only incredibly knowledgeable and strategic, but truly one of the most compassionate, dedicated, and genuine professionals I have ever met. We talked about my situation for over an hour and then he invited me to his home to meet me in person. We spent hours discussing my case. Throughout the whole process I felt that he believed in me and it felt good to know he listened to my story. Other lawyers I spoke with immediately sent me retainer invoices before truly taking the time to listen.
His level of expertise is unmatched, but what sets him apart even more is how deeply he cares. He treated me with dignity, patience, and KINDNESS every step of the way. He kept me calm throughout the entire process and checked in with me regularly, which meant more than I can even explain.
After nearly two years of fighting, he was able to secure pretrial diversion for me, an outcome that will ultimately lead to a full dismissal. When you understand how rare that is, it speaks volumes about who he is and how hard he fights for his clients.
The moment I went to sign my diversion paperwork, he gave me a big hug, and I broke down crying tears of joy and relief.
I am so incredibly thankful for him and everything he has done.
If you are looking for an attorney who will fight relentlessly for you, stand by you, and truly care, I cannot recommend him highly enough.
