Counterfeit Lawyers

Counterfeit is money that is not issued by a government and cannot be used for legal tender. Using such money can be a crime. However, the government is generally most interested in finding the source of the counterfeit money, rather than prosecuting an innocent user. To prevent counterfeit, the government engages in very high-level printing processes. This allows counterfeit money to be spotted easily. In recent years the major denomination of money used in counterfeit has been the US $100 bill. For that reason, the government has printed these bills with high-level invisible data that can, however, be spotted with a magic marker.
