Legal Question in Business Law in New Jersey

Saying it doesn't make it so. So long as you can show what came in and what went out you should not have any fear of a criminal action.

This does not mean that they cannot come after you civilly. But of course they need a cause of action and you would have to be in breach of your agreement on some actionable level or would have to had committed a tort of some kind.

If, for example, you held a FR and part of the agreement was that you were to be paid X dollars for your time and effort counted among the overall expenses then even though you were paid and no money was left over this does not make you a fraudster, assuming you actually did the work to justify your compensation.

Obviously the facts matter. If you would like to discuss further over a free phone consult, feel free to contact me anytime that is convenient.

Kind regards,
