DON’T GO HERE!! If I could give 0 stars I would. Shane’s assistant Maricel was very rude and unprofessional. She called me with an attitude because I missed an appointment because I had a family death and my head was elsewhere. She had an awful attitude towards me, got smart with me, yelled at me, then hung up on me like a child.

Maria matters represented my X-wife in divorce proceedings. I almost felt sorry for my x with her choice of attorney. Notice I said ALMOST. She’s incompetent at practicing law and loves to tell you what you want to hear.
I wouldn’t recommend her to represent anyone in traffic court much less anything of substance. Do your research on her, you’ll thank me later!

I can’t overstate how much I recommend Julie Dixon.
First and foremost, Julie and her team are consummate professionals. In the hardest season of life, Julie and her team have shown genuine compassion and a tenacious spirit advocating inside and outside of the courtroom on our behalf.
Our case has presented unique challenges that Julie and her team have seemingly navigated with ease. As a result, they have more than delivered on their commitment to get the best outcome for my son and I.
For those that are in need of divorce and custody services, understand there isn’t a group of professionals more willing to go the distance than Julie and her team.
Julie, thank you for taking us on as clients, and for the work you continue to do — it means the absolute world to us.

Anyone looking for an attorney to represent you in a custody case I would highly recommend Matthew McConnell with Dixon and Moseley. When I started working with Matthew and Cheryl Foster (paralegal) it was very clear from the beginning that they cared about what I was fighting for which was more time with our boys. Matthew and Cheryl are an amazing team that are responsive, provided me with advice based on their years of experience and ultimately in the end we were victorious with having a lot more time with the boys. I will continue to utilize Matthew as my attorney for anything family law related.

Glaser & Ebbs offer paid parking for the Colts games for a cost of nearly $40 if you pay for it advance on Parkwhiz. When buying a parking pass to a Colts game in advance online, they falsely promote that they have restrooms for paid parkers in their lot...this is only partially true.
The bathrooms (and the building itself) are unlocked before the start of the game. When the game ends, they immediately lock their doors, and even people who paid to park in their lot can't get in to use a bathroom. Don't they realize people might need to use the bathroom before they leave?
Also, they have multiple people help park cars before the game. After the game, there is literally a free for all leaving with no staff in sight to guide people out. Expect to wait an hour just to even get out of their lot and to make it to Interstate 70 when the game is over.

All she cares about is money. I paid over $4,000. She only came to 1 court hearing and she then quit on me. What a ripoff. I could have used my money on better things.

Raggedy AHH! Seek real representation elsewhere. Alexandra we talked about this on my actual email I emailed you from, it wasn’t this one… HOW’D you know it was ME under this NAME, raggedy?
I did not email you from this email for 2 years, and my initial review was not under this name, this one was in addition to.
Slow down, baby you’re tripping and all. Stumbling, mumbling and crumbling. Ah ah. How much did they pay, baby? I’m going to cost triple double.

Called to see about getting help and unless your an immigration case they aren't accepting new cases. To me that's discrimination against our country. This is getting ridiculous. My child has been made so uncomfortable by his dad that he hasn't talked to or seen him in almost a yr, and has told me that if he does see him he wants someone else there because his dad makes him uncomfortable in a sexual personal way. And because we aren't immigration these people won't even hear our case or help. Seriously.

Rob McNevin has acted as a redoubtable pillar of professionalism and as a champion for what is right in all our interactions with him. His team has been a boon to my family and has gone far above and beyond our expectations while working with us for the past 10 years. I cannot recommend Rob, Danny Russello, or the Indy Advocate team enough. It is something to be a great lawyer, another to be a great person.

Choosing Indy Advocate was the worst decision I've made. They lost half of my estate, ignored vital instruction, failed to deliver important documents and notifications, and gave me the wrong information as to when my court appearances were. Incompetent at best, corrupt at worst. Do not choose this firm if you want to win or if you care about your estate.

Chris Gilley has been our family’s attorney through several legal matters, including traffic infractions, criminal cases, and a custody battle. In every situation, he has demonstrated exceptional professionalism, integrity, and dedication to his clients.
What sets Chris apart is his genuine care for the people he represents. He takes the time to understand each case thoroughly, not just from a legal perspective but also from a personal one. His honesty and upfront approach make navigating the legal process much less stressful, as he ensures his clients are well-informed about potential outcomes and realistic expectations.
Chris is not only a skilled and knowledgeable attorney, but he is also reasonable when it comes to his fees—something that can be hard to find in legal representation. He is always prepared, strategic in his approach, and committed to achieving the best possible outcome for his clients.
If you are looking for an attorney who will truly fight for you while maintaining honesty and fairness, Chris Gilley is the one to call. Our family is incredibly grateful for his support and expertise, and we highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal assistance.

Personally, I do not recommend based on my experience. Unorganized, weak internal communication, invoices for unethical charges (an example: charged for an email FROM Garrison, the contents of the email were "I wanted to send a quick note and see how things are going. SUBJECT: Touching Base") We were referred to Garrison from a family friend for help handling my late brothers estate. I have since moved to working with a different firm to help handle the estate and have had an excellent experience.

Unfortunately, I found myself in need of a family attorney. Fortunately, I retained Allison. Allison is an amazing attorney who exceeded my expectations. Knowledgeable, communicative and compassionate about practicing family law. If I, or anyone I know, am in need of a family attorney, Allison is the attorney to retain.

Rachel represented me in my sons paternity case. She was a such a blessing during tan extremely confusing, hard and sad time. I was postpartum, stressing out and had a million and one questions. Rachel made time and answered each one of my questions honestly and professionally, even when it wasn’t what I wanted to hear; she was extremely consistent, helpful and informative.
The office staff (Nicole specifically) would respond and follow up when Rachel was out of town and was very helpful as well.
I am very grateful for Rachel and Hocker Law. I would highly recommend them to anyone. You get what you pay for and beyond with this firm.

Lauren Harpold, it's not often I have spoke to an attorney that is this knowledgeable and has morals. Lauren in my opinion is very honest and trustworthy. I had a consultation with her and I wanted to hire her but she advised me why I shouldn't at this point. Other attorneys I've met would have just said sign here and here is your invoice. She thankfully is not like that at all. She has given me some faith back in attorneys. If you want a good honest and affordable attorney then just stop looking, you found her. She didn't sugar coat things but she was also not cruel. Just very honest and that rarely happens. Thank you Lauren.

She took my retainer. Appeared in court 1 time and then dropped my case a few weeks before the final hearing! I was forced to pay another Attourney to file a motion for a continuance and now my case has been pushed back to January 2023! She didn’t even give me the log in information for my case. She didn’t bring up any of the issues I wanted in my case and wouldn’t file any motions I asked her to. Please talk my advice and run! She’s not a good Attourney.

In spring 2020, I hired attorney Locke to complete some expungement petitions because out of everywhere I called, I found her assistant at the time to be very professional and responsive. There's nothing worse than spending money on an avoidant attorney. Anyway, I paid her nearly $3900 (paid up front from day 1) to file the expungements, along with the filing fee of $650. It was a lot. It was my entire spending stash for summer actually. Well, by June of 2021, she still hadn't filed a single petition. She wouldn't return my emails, and the first time she called me in months, it was after 9:30 p.m. I immediately called her back, but she always calls from a non-returnable office number. Thereafter, she simply checked out. I got super pissed one day last month and used an unknown number to call - I live in Colorado now, so they simply weren't answering my 720 numbers...but I would have a friend in Indiana call immediately after me, and they would pick up!! I essentially demanded that her assistant either file my cases or give me my over $4000 back. She assured me she would have them together by the next day because they were partly started...14 months later!!! And get this...after 14 months of ignoring a paid client, she had the audacity to fire me as a client and keep all money!
In the midst of my plight, around October last year maybe, I left a super crappy review- much like this one- and after not returning my calls for months, she had the courage to call and threaten me to take it down because, of course, COVID. But rather than apologize for not even starting a single petition by that time, she actually chewed me out. She assured me that she was now on top of it, and everything would be filed within days. Again, I hired her 14 months ago.
Here we are in August of 2021, and she has only drafted a single petition in one of five counties that she promised, and she still has all my money. My parents are telling me to file a case neglect complaint with the Indiana Bar, but I just wanted to get the service I paid for. What would you do if a 'prominent' Indy lawyer stole over $4000 from you?
I have phone records documenting dozens of unreturned calls, all of my emails that she ignored, and even proof that I flew 1100 miles home to Indiana to provide her a single piece of paper, and she literally has never even sent me a piece of mail, a case update, or even a shred of respect.
Dude, guys, this lady literally took over $4000 from me (luckily on an insured credit card) and ghosted. I've been robbed in the past, but it's usually like a Nintendo. This lady took thousands from me on a contract of guaranteed services that she absolutely did not, and still has not, completed, and then she fired me. I think that she thinks that because I'm out of state, I'll forget, or maybe that she's invincible.
These are the professionals that are supposed to be protecting us, not baiting us with the promise of a service and then stealing from us! So profoundly disrespectful.
Again, I can provide phone records and numerous ignored emails, as well as proof that she hasn't actually filed a single petition.

This is a message to Attorney Locke that I don't mind others seeing. I really don't know what I would do without you. You have been representing me with my custody case that has changed shape and scope over a year long process so far. I love how in the midst of all the legalities at play, you start every conversation with, "how are the kids", which lets me know you care about what I care about the most.. You are always prepared and make sure that I am prepared before we enter the courtroom. You came from a referral who had a similar positive experience and outcome. It's my pleasure to recommend you and your firm to others in need.

Update 9/2024 - I'm increasing my review to 5 stars. It did take them about 7 months to contact me, which was frustrating. (I know they must have an insanely high case load and are running low on staff...so I do get that.) Ultimately they followed through and when I met with an attorney I was treated with the upmost kindness and respect. That meant everything to me. Truly, thank you so so much!
Update 8/2024 - I did hear back from them so I am deeply grateful for that. I'm increasing my stars based upon the fact that they did follow through. I will increase my stars further once paperwork is filed. I totally empathize with how inundated they must be - I just wish communication was better during the process.
They sent me a letter in January 2024 stating they would take my case. I turned in everything they asked of me. It's now July 2024, and I still haven't heard anything back despite 20+ calls to them. They have not returned a single phone call of mine in 6 months. Not one.
I'm happy to increase my stars if I ever hear back from them and they actually do what they said they would do.

My situation had some challaging issues with some of the parties involved but Bryan didn't waiver. Bryan was able to work with the other party involved to agree to terms. Bryan was very detailed paperwork was always filed on time and correctly which made the process easier.
Bryan was always proffestional and easy to work with and always went above and beyond to help my family.

Worse than useless. This attorney has to consistently be reminded of points of the case, issues that have been discussed, concerns that (he claims to understand & agree with) yet when it's time to file anything with the Court the entire scenario turns into groundhog's day. Follow up is less than sub-par. Does not file motions with the Court when he specifically says he will within a certain timeframe, then when questioned on the status there are a lot of ???? (i.e. deer in head light moments.) Also, repeated excuses as to delays of case or follow up because of 'sickness', personal family issues, under the weather, attorney for other party is 'non-responsive', etc etc etc. There are no words to adequately detail how completely incompetent this individual is with regards to representing the interests of his clients.

We hired Bryan for estate planning needs once we welcomed a new addition to the family. From the initial contact, Bryan was excellent. He was always prompt in responding to us via email or phone, he provided several real life scenarios to consider when drafting our documents, and was wonderful at listening to our concerns to tailor an estate plan to meet our needs. Bryan made the experience very pleasurable, considering. Moreover, Bryan was able to help us evaluate our small businesses and how estate planning is an important part of the process. Bryan provided us a concierge experience and our family will certainly be using his services again in the future.

You know when you get accused of something you did not do you still need a lawyer. I was arrested on a criminal case . The police were all over me trying to prove their case. Nothing I could say would convince them I didn't do it. Finally they charged me with 4 charges related to the incident they said I was involved in. I went to 3 lawyers and they were all in the 20 to 30,000 range I had heard of this lawyer from one of my friends. I called Dylan and explained my situation and the charges. I went to his office and had a consultation. He explained what he would do and the costs involved. I hired him at a reasonable cost considerate of the types of charges. After hiring Dylan he took charge and did everything he could to help me. He helped me piece together my actions the day of the incident , had his PI go out and interview witnesses , took depositions , and prepared a defense case for me. As it ended up all charges were dropped against me because of Dylan and his expert team I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a good attorney.

Top Questions to Ask a Family Law Lawyer
Before hiring a family law lawyer, it's important to ask questions to ensure they're the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask during your consultation:
-
What experience do you have with family law cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it's a contested divorce, child custody dispute, or adoption. -
How will you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or requires a retainer. Ask for an estimate of the total costs involved. -
What are the possible outcomes of my case?
An experienced lawyer should be able to give you a general idea of what to expect based on the facts of your case. -
What is your approach to resolving disputes?
Ask whether the lawyer tends to favor negotiation and mediation or whether they prefer to take cases to court. This can help you determine if their style matches your goals. -
How long do you expect my case to take?
While it’s difficult to predict, the lawyer should give you an estimate based on similar cases. -
