Fraud Attorney in Hamilton County
State & Federal Fraud Defense for Hamilton County Residents & Businesses
Fraud charges carry serious consequences, and how quickly you act after learning you’re under investigation can shape what happens next. Massillamany Jeter & Carson LLP is based in Fishers, inside Hamilton County, and our attorneys handle fraud defense for individuals and businesses throughout the county. We’ve handled both state and federal matters since the firm was founded in 2015, and we represent clients in Indiana courts and federal court when the matter demands it.
Fraud allegations don’t always begin with an arrest. Investigations can run for months before charges are filed, and the decisions made during that window matter. When you call us, we can step in early, before the prosecution builds its case unopposed.

Why Hamilton County Clients Choose Massillamany Jeter & Carson LLP
Our attorneys bring more than 200 years of combined legal experience to every case. That depth means a fraud defense client doesn’t rely on a single attorney working in isolation. Our team-based approach puts the collective knowledge of the firm behind your case, with resources allocated at each stage based on what the matter requires.
Our founding partners have served in leadership roles at state and national levels, and our firm is actively woven into the Hamilton County community. We know the Hamilton County Judicial Center in Noblesville, the local prosecutors, and how cases move through this court system. That familiarity isn’t incidental. Hamilton County’s courts are among the busiest and fastest-growing in Indiana, and cases move on a firm schedule. Knowing local procedures from the start helps keep your defense on pace.
We offer the personalized attention of a smaller practice alongside the capability of a multi-attorney team. Clients get direct communication and a team that knows their case, not a rotating cast of associates.
Fraud Charges We Handle in Hamilton County
Fraud offenses in Hamilton County span a wide range of conduct. Our attorneys represent clients facing charges at both the state and federal level, including cases where state and federal authorities are coordinating their investigation.
Charge types we handle include:
- Wire fraud and mail fraud under federal statutes, which apply when communications or the postal system are used in connection with a scheme
- Mortgage fraud involving misrepresentation in the loan or property transaction process
- Medicaid and healthcare fraud involving billing irregularities or false claims to government programs
- Securities fraud involving misrepresentation in investment transactions
- Identity deception and identity theft under Indiana law
- Insurance fraud and check deception
- Tax fraud at the state or federal level
- Forgery and related document offenses
Fraud offenses in Indiana range from misdemeanors to felonies. Severity depends on the dollar amount involved, prior criminal history, and whether the offense targeted a vulnerable person. When interstate activity or significant financial loss is involved, federal charges may apply alongside or instead of state charges, and federal penalties under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines can produce substantially longer sentences than their state equivalents.
