California Law Firm
Aequitas Law Group
Our law firm specializes in protecting the rights of employees and consumers. Our mission is twofold: (1) to ensure that hard-working employees are properly and accurately compensated for the time they spend working for their employers; and (2) to protect consumers against companies that engage in fraud or unfair business practices. Many companies conduct business in a fair and honest fashion. Unfortunately, however, there are many that do not. When such companies violate your rights, those companies often know that individual employees and consumers generally will not be motivated to file lawsuits to seek relief. Class action is the ideal mechanism to seek justice in these situations.
Practice Areas:
-Class Action
-Wage & Hour
-Employment
-Consumer Fraud

Thai National Sentenced, Faces Deportation for Operating Immigration Fraud Scheme
Nimon Naphaeng, 36, a native and citizen of Thailand, who resided in Wakefield, R.I., was sentenced Monday to 27 months in federal prison for running an immigration fraud scheme that defrauded more than 320 individuals, most of them immigrants, of at least $400,000, and perhaps more than $518,000.
The scheme included the unauthorized filing of false asylum applications on behalf of individuals who did not request, nor authorize, the applications.
“U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services does not tolerate immigration fraud of any kind,” said Susan Raufer, director of the USCIS Newark Asylum Office. “We are proud of our role in uncovering this fraud scheme and bringing the perpetrator to justice.”
At sentencing, U.S. District Court Chief Judge William E. Smith ordered a provisional amount of restitution of $400,000. The final amount of restitution will be determined subject to additional victims being identified and additional court filings over the next 90 days. According to court documents already filed by the government, restitution in this matter may exceed $518,300. During the investigation, the government seized $285,789.31 from Naphaeng. The forfeited funds will be applied toward restitution for victims of Naphaeng’s crimes.
