What Is Business Fraud?
Any false or misleading statements in a business transaction can be considered fraud if you are harmed by relying on those statements. The following are examples of business fraud:
- Commercial real estate fraud: Lying about boundary lines, easements, environmental contamination, zoning or other real estate issues
- Fraud in sale of a business: Misrepresenting the sales, profits or prospects of the business
- Shareholder or partner fraud: Stealing trade secrets or steering clients to another business with which the shareholder or partner has ties
- Billing fraud: Submitting false or inflated invoices for products or services
Our lawyers use former FBI fraud investigators and other experts to determine if a business has committed fraud. When business fraud occurs, the injured party may have several remedies available. For example, if you bought a commercial property based on false statements from the seller, you may seek to have the sales contract rescinded or the price adjusted.
