Nathan Hardwick, 50, allegedly embezzled more than $20 million from his own law firm to spend on lavish private jets, gambling in Las Vegas, treating numerous girlfriends, and paying off his ex-wife


Nathan Hardwick was largest shareholder of Morris Hardwick Schneider derauded commpany of $30 million now facing jail on 29 counts of fraud.

His former financial officer Asha Maurya is charged with giving Hardwick extra bonuses and stealing $900,000 to pay off her own credit card bills 

“The indictment alleges an embezzlement scheme dating back years,” said U.S. Attorney John Horn. “Along the way, Mr. Hardwick is alleged to have repeatedly lied to his clients, law partners, banks and others. The allegations are especially troubling given that the actions were orchestrated by a lawyer who swore an oath to uphold the law and to represent his clients with integrity.”
