Experienced Real Estate Fraud Attorney

I am attorney George F. Hildebrandt, and for over 30 years I have provided focused and dedicated criminal defense services to Syracuse-area clients. I am very familiar with mortgage fraud cases and know how to protect my clients’ rights effectively. Contact me today to discuss your case.

Types of Mortgage Fraud

I defend clients throughout New York against all different types of mortgage fraud charges, including those involving:

  • Using an inflated appraisal to take out a fraudulent home equity loan, then walking away
  • Property flipping − Transfer of property several times through straw buyers or shell corporations to disguise fraudulent appraisals and make money off the resale
  • Foreclosure rescue scams, in which companies take money through upfront fees, then do nothing to prevent foreclosure
  • Loan fraud − Misrepresentation on loan applications in order to use fraudulent information to qualify for a mortgage loan

Mortgage fraud charges are usually brought in federal court, and they must be defended vigorously. I will use my over 30 years of criminal defense experience to contest the charges vigorously and make sure your rights are protected.
