A New Jersey attorney has been disbarred following her conviction in a mortgage fraud case that totaled nearly $1 million in stolen funds. 

Stephanie Hand of Livingston was found guilty in a Superior Court jury trial on March 30, 2017, of second-degree charges of conspiracy, money laundering and theft by deception. The charges were contained in a February 2014 superseding indictment stemming from an investigation by the Division of Criminal Justice, with assistance from the Passaic County Prosecutor’s Office and U.S. Secret Service, according to a release from the New Jersey Office of the Attorney General.
