Demonstrated Results in White Collar Defense

Alan Fenster recently represented a lawyer charged with embezzling a total of $1 million from three different clients. After extensive negotiations with case prosecutors, Mr. Fenster was able to fashion a disposition whereby his client paid $200,000 as partial restitution and was placed on probation after serving 30 days in jail. Conviction on the original charges, for which the prosecution had considerable evidence, could have meant several years in prison.

The Law Offices of Alan Fenster is currently defending a member of a well-known Los Angeles family who is charged with voter fraud. The family's primary residence is in L.A., and the district attorney alleged voting fraud because the client is registered to vote in the city of Vernon, where the family has long owned property. This is the third time in the last 100 years that a local D.A. has prosecuted the same family for fraud. Mr. Fenster expects to win the case and exonerate the client and his family once and for all.
