Ceres sits right below Modesto on Highway 99, close enough that downtown Modesto is only about four miles north. That proximity is useful, because a Ceres criminal case is handled at the Stanislaus County Superior Court in Modesto. Misdemeanors and felonies go to the Main Courthouse on 11th Street; a DUI or traffic citation runs through the Traffic Court on Floyd Avenue. For most people in Ceres, the courthouse is a short drive up the freeway.
Karan Saini grew up in this part of the Central Valley and prosecuted felony cases for the Stanislaus County District Attorney's Office before going into defense work. He has stood where the prosecutor stands. He knows how a Ceres arrest becomes a filed charge, what the DA looks for, and where the case can come apart.
The firm handles both sides of the trouble people actually face. Criminal: DUI cases, domestic violence, drug crimes, theft, assault charges, on through the most serious violent felonies. Injury: a wreck on the 99, a dog bite, a bad fall, a death caused by someone else's negligence. On the injury side the fight is over the money an insurer would rather keep.
Karan speaks English, Hindi, and Punjabi, and the firm offers services in Spanish, so your first conversation happens in your own words. Consultations are free, and the criminal calls get answered fast because timing matters. If you've been arrested or injured in Ceres, call 209-809-1634 before you talk to police or sign an adjuster's paperwork.
