Monroe County Fraud Defense Attorney
Fraud, Financial Crime and Forgery Defense
If you are suspected of forged documents, credit card theft, check fraud or unauthorized use of someone's identity or accounts, you may be facing felony charges of fraud or identity theft. It may be a misunderstanding or dispute with someone you know which resulted in accusations, or investigators may think they have evidence that links you to a crime.
Whatever the circumstances, you need the advice and representation of an experienced criminal defense lawyer. My name is Josh W. Thacker, and I practice almost exclusively in criminal law. I also prosecuted many white collar crime cases during my six-year stint as an Assistant District Attorney.

Griffin Identity Theft Attorney
I have handled a wide range of cases involving identity fraud and misappropriation:
- Stolen or forged checks
- Credit card fraud
- Selling personal data (credit card numbers, Social Security numbers, etc.)
- Embezzlement
- Internet scams
- Mortgage fraud/bank fraud
- Identity theft (assuming someone's identity)
- Forged IDs or immigration papers
In many cases, the allegations are leveled by a family member or a friend and the facts of the case do not support criminal intent. For example, a person writes checks or draws money on an account, but an estranged spouse or partner denies that the person is authorized to do so.
Resolving these cases usually involves restitution. I work with the alleged victim to make amends and to convince the local prosecutor to drop the case or reduce the charges. If the allegations are more serious, such as a major fraud prosecution or an organized identity theft ring, I will analyze the evidence and position my client for the most favorable plea deal available or trial.
