Rental Car Embezzlement

Using rental car longer than permitted is considered embezzlement. Wais Azami is a rental car embezzlement attorney in OC. Embezzlement is a form of theft where the owner entrusted their personal property to a person with the condition that it would be returned. Currently, the law allows an owner to report the vehicle as stolen after 72 hours of not being returned. However, effective 2024, the owner must wait 5 days before being able to report the vehicle as stolen.

Rental Car Embezzlement Defenses:

  • Didn’t Lease the Vehicle
  • Did return it within the 72 hours (5 days after 2024)
