Legal Definitions - forgery

Forgery is a crime where someone makes or changes a legal document with the intention of tricking someone else. This is against the law.

For example, if someone makes a fake driver's license with someone else's name on it, that is forgery. Another example is if someone changes a will to make themselves the beneficiary, that is also forgery.

These examples show how someone can use forgery to deceive others and gain something they are not entitled to. It is important to always be honest and truthful when dealing with legal documents.
