A San Antonio attorney has been sentenced to six years in federal prison in a wire fraud scheme.
Federal authorities say Todd Prins participated in a $2.4 Million fraud scheme.
In addition to the prison sentence, Prins was also ordered to pay $2,975,264 in restitution and be placed on supervised release for a period of three years after completing his prison term.
Prosecutors say from August 16, 2013, to December 22, 2016, he defrauded several victims using false and fraudulent pretenses, representations and promises.
According to court documents, Prins led clients to believe that a lawsuit Prins filed on their behalf was successful and a judgement had awarded them money. To convince his clients, Prins fraudulently created forged court rulings, opinions and orders.
