Columbus's Short North, Arena District, and campus area see active enforcement. For Arab refugees and immigrants, Ohio's intervention programs and sealed record provisions can help protect immigration status.
The theft & fraud process with an Arab lawyer
Our Arabic-speaking theft & fraud attorneys guide you through every step of your case in Columbus.
1
Confidential Case Assessment
Meet with an Arabic-speaking attorney to discuss the allegations privately. Early intervention can sometimes prevent charges from being filed.
2
Evidence and Financial Analysis
Examine prosecution evidence, financial records, and intent. Many fraud cases involve civil disputes or accounting errors, not criminal conduct.
3
Negotiation and Defense Building
Negotiate with prosecutors for charge reduction, diversion, or dismissal. Build trial defense if negotiation fails.
4

Client review
“Campus police found marijuana in my dorm room. Ohio State wanted to expel me and the prosecutor wanted a felony charge. My lawyer negotiated a plea to a minor misdemeanor and convinced the university to let me stay with academic probation. Just graduated last spring.”

Client review
“Pulled over after leaving a restaurant on High Street. Blew 0.08, right at the limit. My attorney challenged the breathalyzer calibration records and the field sobriety test. Got it reduced to a physical control violation with no points on my license. Kept my job at the hospital.”

Client review
“My employee stole from the register and blamed me. Owner believed him because he'd been there longer. I got charged with theft over $1,000. My attorney subpoenaed the security footage and bank records. Proved I never took anything. Charges dropped and I sued for wrongful termination.”
