Looking for an EIDL fraud attorney in Los Angeles? The $2.2 trillion COVID-19 relief law was enacted by Congress in March to extend financial aid to small businesses in need due to the Covid-19 pandemic. One aspect of the law was an expansion of the Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) program, which is administered by the Small Business Administration (SBA). The SBA have loaned billions to small businesses impacted by COVID-19. The relief provided by the EIDL program has been desperately needed by small business during this economic crisis. As the SBA rolled out the EIDL loans, so have prosecutions for fraud where business owners are now worries whether they were eligible for the EIDL loans and whether they might have criminal liability for such applications.
Recently, Federal authorities have ramped up their investigations into EIDL loan applications. According to Federal Criminal Laws, any person that knowingly makes false statements to obtain an Economic Injury Disaster Loan is subject ot a criminal prosecution facing imprisonment and monetary fines. As such, these Federal agencies are actively conducting investigations into any possible false and inaccurate certifications made on EIDL applications. The loan amount is irrelevant to such investigations, rather the Federal agencies are looking into whether a person/entity received federal funds through the Economic Injury Disaster Loan Program where the application contains inaccurate information.
