Los Angeles Perjury Defense Attorney
Facing perjury charges?
Intentionally and willfully distorting the truth under oath is considered perjury under California law. Lying in court, or in official documents such as marriage licenses, voter registrations, or other documents fall under the charge of perjury. One can also be charged with perjury when they encourage another to commit perjury.
This crime can also apply to a person making a statement under penalty of perjury, even if the individual has not been sworn in as a witness before an appropriate official. An example of this would be a U.S. income tax return, which by law is signed as true under the penalty of perjury.
In California, perjury is a felony crime and a conviction can carry with it imprisonment of up to 4 years. One facing these charges would need highly knowledgeable white collar crimes counsel in order to effectively investigate and uncover all potential factors that could help their client avoid a conviction and its attendant harsh penalties.
