Las Vegas Bad Check Attorney
Nevada law makes it a criminal offense to knowingly issue a bad check. If this matter is not resolved within a reasonable amount of time, the issuer of the check may face serious criminal charges. If the value of the check is over $250, this is a felony and a conviction may result in mandatory imprisonment in state prison, heavy fines, restitution, probation and more. The same applies to unpaid casino markers.

Times are tough. You may have unknowingly written a bad check or may have lost track of your finances and therefore not had the funds available to pay a check that you wrote.
