Have you ever noticed that movie stars, sports players and public officials are immune from getting in trouble? Do they all have amazing attorneys that we just don’t know about? In the last decade it seems the life of the rich and famous have been granted special treatment when the sirens go off and the cuffs go on.

There actions go far beyond reckless driving from speeding down the wrong way of a highway to smashing into a parking lot full of cars. Although one would assume the law is equal their time in jail seems to be a mere slap on the wrist. Charles Barkley was sentenced to 10 days in jail but will only have to serve five upon completion of an alcohol education program. Lindsey Lohan is back behind the wheel following her second arrest just little over a year ago and lets not forget Nicole Riche who spent a little over twenty-four hours behind bars.

At Beauchamp Law Office P.C., we fight for everyone’s innocence making sure no one receives preferential treatment. Through hard work and preparation our team will be ready to handle all aspects of your case, from the confusing court process to making sure you understand your legal rights.

Beauchamp Law Office P.C., has seen incredible results all across Arizona when dealing with DUI cases, many have even been dismissed before they even reach a jury. A DUI case can be dismissed for a number of reasons but especially when your civil rights are violated.

Yesterday, President Obama was also stern as he delivered a speech near Wall Street in which he talked about the need for financial reform. As noted in this NY Times article, the window for true reform is quickly closing as the stock market climbs every day. Below is an excerpt from that article about the possible timeline for Congress taking legislative action:

“Senior Congressional Democrats had originally planned to have the House complete its work on the financial overhaul before turning to the more recalcitrant Senate. But the tighter time schedule has forced lawmakers to rethink that approach.

Later this week, Barney Frank, Democrat of Massachusetts and the chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, is expected to announce a series of hearings for the coming days before his committee marks up legislation in October. Aides say he is hoping to get legislation to the floor by the end of next month or beginning of November.

There is less certainty in the Senate, where Christopher J. Dodd, Democrat of Connecticut and the chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, has been working to put together a package that could withstand the threat of a filibuster.”

How could one man swindle up to $50 billion in a mater of a few years? How could one man do this to his own family and friends? How did former Nasdaq chairman, Bernard Madoff, deceive an entire nation in a time of an economic recession?

Madoff, who has been charged with fraud, was known on Wall Street for his sense of humor and bubbly personality. What began as business venture to create an asset-management firm headed by sons, Andrew and Mark soon became one of the largest pyramid schemes known to man.

Madoff, gathered investors for his scheme by visiting country clubs and Jewish organization his parents and friends belonged too. What many considered to be a low risk investment left many bankrupt and hopeless.

The strategy of the fund was to purchase large cap stocks and increase those investments with related stock-option strategies. The combined investments could allegedly create a stable return.Although that was the original plan in 2005 things took a drastic turn for the worst when Madoff realized his business was failing. Instead of declaring bankruptcy, Madoff began using the money from new investors to pay off old clients.

The cycle continued as new investors believed their money was going into a fund but in reality was going to directly to the pockets of old clients. Although Madoff’s business was rapidly failing he continued to report steady growth. In a time of a failing economy many investors began wanting their money back, Madoff had no money to give.

His sons were informed by Madoff that the business had been a fraud. Sons Andrew and Mark had no choice but to inform authorities. Madoff’s case is still in progress, if found guilt could face life in prison. Madoff has also agreed to give up the rights to his investment business, his company’s prized artwork and entertainment tickets.On Thursday a guilty plea to all 11 counts he was charged with, including fraud, perjury, theft from an employee benefit plan, and two counts of international money laundering.
