Dallas Counterfeiting Defense Attorney
Counterfeiting Defense in Dallas, Texas
Counterfeiting is a theft crime that is committed when a person fraudulently makes, creates or falsifies a document or material item and tries to pass off the counterfeit item as real in order to make a profit. In cases involving counterfeit, the item that is sold is merely an imitation, but the person selling the item will try to convince the buyer that the item is real. Criminal offenders who commit counterfeit may create fraudulent items like money, art, jewelry, clothing or other designer items.
In the state of Texas, people who commit counterfeit may be charged with a misdemeanor or felony. The severity of the charges will depend upon the amount of funds the offender obtained for counterfeit items and if the offender has been found guilty of counterfeiting in the past.
