White Collar Crimes Defense
Fraud, embezzlement, and financial-crime defense with discretion.
The Approach
White-collar investigations are document-heavy and reputation-sensitive. Early, quiet intervention often produces the best outcome — sometimes before charges are ever filed.
If you are facing white collar crimes defense charges in Modesto, Stanislaus County, or anywhere in California's Central Valley, the first 72 hours often shape the entire trajectory of your case. As a former Deputy District Attorney, Jared Jordan has stood on both sides of the courtroom and knows exactly how prosecutors build — and overcharge — these allegations. That insight becomes your advantage at every stage: arraignment, preliminary hearing, motion practice, and trial.
Every white collar crimes defense engagement at the Law Office of Jared Jordan begins with a detailed case audit covering pre-charge investigation defense, embezzlement and fraud, forensic accounting coordination, negotiated resolutions. We isolate the weakest link in the state's evidence, file the suppression and dismissal motions that matter, and prepare every file as if it is going to a jury — because the cases that prosecutors negotiate hardest are the ones where defense counsel is visibly ready to try them.
Free, confidential consultations are available the same day. Call (209) 554-2021 to speak directly with Jared — not a screener, not a junior associate.

Yes — depending on the strength of the state's evidence, the legality of the search or stop, and available diversion programs.
