A long-time client returned multiple times for legal help and reported good results each time. Review evidence is limited to one detailed account.
Many clients report strong outcomes and attentive representation when actively communicating with their attorney. The firm excels at explaining complex legal matters and delivering results on matters from gun rights restoration to Title IX cases. However, numerous complaints document communication breakdowns after initial engagement, abrupt staff changes without notification, unclear retainer policies, and cases that went unfiled despite payment. Retainer structures appear to frustrate clients unfamiliar with trust account practices.
The firm's size and staff variability (clients name Bradley Keffer, Myekeal Wynn, Peter Capofari, Gregory Morser, Caroline, Rachel, Melissa Middleton) create uneven experiences. Some praise thoroughness and compassion; others report abandonment, ghosting, or minimal effort on straightforward matters. Billing transparency and consistent follow-through remain persistent weak points.

A long-time client returned multiple times for legal help and reported good results each time. Review evidence is limited to one detailed account.

Clients consistently experience confident, prepared representation backed by attorneys who take personal interest in their outcomes. Named attorneys (Yasmin Abdelhak Barker, Christopher Eskew, Ben Jaffee, Heather Franklin) and staff earn praise for explaining legal strategy, handling custody and family cases swiftly, and delivering courtroom wins; one negative review flags intake staff for unresponsiveness and unclear case-determination processes. Their website lists criminal defense expertise (DUI, drug, assault, fraud, expungement), though recent reviews focus on family law and criminal outcomes. Service areas span Indianapolis to Fort Wayne. The firm claims over 75 years combined experience.

Large firm attracts strong praise for expertise but faces repeated complaints about slow communication, unresponsive staff, and billing inconsistencies. Time-sensitive matters and small-town clients report particular friction with delays and lack of follow-up.
