obtaining money by deception
false accounting
pretenses
money laundering
data crime

The term '[criminal] fraud' is avoided unless 'fraud' is a specific offense and cannot be more narrowly described. The term 'fraudulent' is likewise avoided. (There is also the risk of confusion with civil fraud.)
Special attention is given to:-
inherent and exherent criminality (an insulated isolated lawyer who out of an idiopathic urge from nothing and nowhere steals trust fund money can be said to be inherently criminal, criminal by nature; a lawyer who unnaturally steals trust fund money for some extrinsic, adventitious reason is, in my book, exherently criminal; and the idea develops from there. You'll see that the inherent-exherent construct is very useful, sometimes necessary, to describe some dynamics of criminals and criminality)
law and fact iterations of each offense. Necessary for databases and helpful when indicting
types, levels and degrees of perpetration including co-principal and accessory
locations of perpetration and manifested criminality: inner office, back office, front office, recourse, public relations, support system, etc.
horizontal, vertical, diagonal and multi-dimensional stacks, layers etc. of single and multiple continuum and not-continuum offenses. This is the dynamic geology of multiple criminality
saturation criminality
the various levels and layers of inherent and exherent original, legacy and fresh continuum criminality (since you ask, criminal non-disclosure, criminal misrepresentation and false accounting, for example, are continuum offenses. The criminal criminally fails to disclose, and goes on criminally failing to disclose: once started and until comprehensively stopped by the genuinely full whole-truth disclosure legally required, he's offending all the time: the original offense continues indefinitely. The original continuum offense then inherently, indefinitely and fractally sprouts a potential infinity of supporting offspring continuum criminality: the very first one is the original; it then sprouts legacy / offspring continuum offenses, which then sprout their own continuum offenses; fresh continuum offenses can attach themselves to the fractally sprouting tree. No such saga arises with a not-continuum offense. Like assault and murder, each offense of theft is committed in a self-contained self-limiting instant and then it's all over. Theft is therefore not a continuum offense: receiving and handling are not its offspring. This is the dynamic botany of continuum offenses and criminality. I trust you're making notes)
customer-lawyer dynamics
estate and estate management dynamics; the distinction between them
the framing and drafting of indictments, especially of multiple offenses by multiple perpetrators, compound offenses, continuum offenses, etc.: the choice of episodes, junctures in continuum offenses; consideration of law and fact iterations; use of combinatorics, AI, modelling, simulations
honest and dishonest defenses
admissible and inadmissible primary and secondary evidence.
Jurisdictions will probably include England, federal US, New York, California, Florida, Arizona, federal Switzerland, Geneva, Vaud, Australia, Canada.
This is not a book on general criminal law or practice. It does not discuss professional or regulatory misconduct or ethics. (And it has nothing good to say about law enforcement's obsession with motive.)
This straightforward, accessible, readable, interesting book is full of examples, illustrations and graphics. It unclogs, deciphers, decodes, demystifies, clarifies, discusses and pellucidates fundamental relevant criminal law and practice so there can be no mistake, misunderstanding or misconception when reading the author's other relevant publications. Provides the lay and professional reader with the necessary grounding to fully and constructively comprehend, navigate, consider and discuss relevant technical detail. To be read with Lawyer Rackets, Get A Grip, Inheritance Crime, Accounting and Auditing in Inheritance Crime, Defamation War Room, etc.
