White-Collar Crime Defense Attorneys in Los Angeles

White-Collar Crime statutes in California generally provide for individual liability for corporate officials and others engaged directly and personally in the illegal activities. Our White-Collar Crime Defense Attorneys have served Los Angeles diligently, with successful results.

An example of the approach used in contemporary California statutes is Business and Professional Code section 17100, which governs the applicability of the California Unfair Practices Act, including its misdemeanor criminal sanctions. Section 17100 defines a person to whom the act applies as any “principal, agent, officer or director, for himself or for another person, or for any firm or corporation.”

Thus individuals in whatever capacity–managerial or subordinate–are expressly identified for potential criminal responsibility for violations of the statute. In addition, section 17100 permits the intent of a person or corporation to be imputed to its officers, directors, or agents for the purpose of proving individual liability.
