ESCALATION OF MORTGAGE FRAUD

 

Weston, Florida - According to Gary Opper, Managing Member, Levie-Opper, LLC, “Now is the right time to add mortgage fraud to your law practice. It has become the ‘hot topic.’”  With the growing cases of fraud, the government is seriously and aggressively pursuing guilty parties. 

 

·        Application Fraud

·        Real Estate Value Fraud

·        Real Estate Title Fraud

·        Transaction Fraud

 

Scenarios like these will play out more and more as the indictments continue in mortgage fraud cases. This is the beginning of a five to seven year window of unfortunate opportunity for the criminal defense attorney to provide capable legal services to white-collar defendants along with expert litigation support from forensic mortgage fraud accountants

He holds the ABV (Accredited in Business Valuation) credential from the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. He has been qualified as an expert witness and has provided testimony in hundreds of cases in bankruptcy and federal courts and various circuit courts in the state of Florida. He has testified in numerous types of civil and criminal matters that have ranged from stockholder disputes to lost profits to mortgage fraud.

 

Gary Opper has more than 30 years of mortgage and financial experience. He has an accounting degree from the University of Florida and a Master of Science in Taxation from Florida International University. Gary Opper has been a Certified Public Accountant for thirty (30) years and was a Tax Engagement Manager with KPMG Peat Marwick.
