Former Attorney Sentenced to Federal Prison for Stealing $3.8M From Clients' Insurance Proceeds
“It’s hard to overstate the extraordinary impact Ms. Deveny’s crimes had on the many innocent and vulnerable victims who trusted her,” said Ethan Knight, chief of the Economic Crimes Unit for the U.S. Attorney’s Office. “As a former attorney, she had a special responsibility to her clients and to the public, but she repeatedly abused this trust and prioritized her own needs. This is a just sentence for serious crimes.”
