Fraud Laws in Texas
Texas law provides victims of fraud have various legal tools and remedies at their disposal. Alongside common law fraud, the Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA) serves as the primary consumer protection law. Victims can file actions to collect damages under this statute, potentially including attorney’s fees. In some cases, the court may award plaintiffs damages up to three times the actual damages.
In the Texas penal code some fraudulent offenses are classified as first-degree felonies. These can carry many years in prison, with the potential for life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. Given the gravity of such charges, it is imperative not to underestimate fraud allegations. Engaging with our experienced fraud defense attorneys is crucial in the early stages of the criminal proceedings.
