When you are put in charge of handling any type of business operation or finances for your employer, you are in a position of trust. When you fail to stick to your job duties and abuse your position for your personal gain, you could find yourself charged with embezzlement. In some cases, your employer may say they won't file official charges and try to get you to make an admission of guilt or sign a document. It is important that you have a Troy white collar crime lawyer present before you sign anything.
