Lee was hired for dissolution of marriage and to obtain sole custody of my niece. From September-January there was no progress but it was always the other sides fault….
Upon hiring Stephanie Brinkerhoff through Steven Dieg’s firm, she was able to obtain sole custody of my niece, with all rights signed away by adoptive father, and everything else that was requested. She did this in a matter of 8 hours. After waiting for 4 months with Lee Veazy with nothing accomplished. Lee gave the impression sole custody was impossible with Indiana’s parenting time guidelines and 50/50 was the best possible outcome. He should be ashamed to even charge for his ‘time’. He didn’t take any of this as seriously as it should have been taken. Just another case. Extremely poor communication and he seemed very ill prepared at the initial hearing. Ms. Brinkerhoff came in extremely prepared and even discovered $250k+ in entitled funds that Lee never mentioned. If you need a great attorney to get the job done, get Stephanie at Dieg’s!

Conner was my attorney and did a fantastic job! I couldn’t have asked for more from him. From his professionalism, accuracy, and dedication to his craft it showed every day. I would recommend Conner or his firm to anyone! Very satisfied client!

Conner Voegel helped us with a utility easement / eminent domain issue and was able to work out much better terms and compensation than we were originally offered. He was friendly, professional, timely, and easy to understand. I would recommend Conner and SKO to anyone. It'll be an easy choice on who to call if we ever have another issue.

Absolutely terrible! If you need anything done in a hurry you might as well forget it! The staff is incredibly unprofessional and rude. They will make sure to harass you if you owe them, but when you pay them and need proof you will wait months...awful place!

We just left the courthouse over a civil matter. Reed S Schmitt was the attorney for the plaintiff in this case. While asking my boyfriend questions he brought up a VERY private and personal matter about us having a miscarriage the day before. For what I have no idea but as someone who’s worked as a paralegal for 12 years, never have I ever heard or seen legal representation speak on such private matters. Your tactics are extremely unprofessional. DISGUSTING!!!

We hired Joe Langerak and Chris Wischer for a simple case involving an HOA violation with the neighbors pool construction. We first hired Chris Wischer to represent us for a Variance and rezoning hearing. Docket VAR-2020-074 and NO APL-2020-002 (Also televised). Chris failed to appear on time missing 90 % percent of our hearing. Due to this Chris failed to advance our position. In order to protect our home value we felt it necessary to file suit. Chris invoiced us for $19,585. Twice the amount quoted. Later we found out we were never informed of our right for judicial review.
We hired Joe Langerak for the litigation who made our case far worse than imaginable. Joe was rude and disrespectful often yelling at us if we spoke our story of truth. Whenever we spoke of the many lies the opposing contractor was telling us, Joe would yell "Don't go there!" "That man has an excellent reputation!" When we spoke of only trying to protect our home value Joe would yell " You have no education or authority to speak on that subject and would not be allowed to have an opinion!". Joe constantly controlled every aspect of our trial and got us to drop our many issues saying "Trust me or you will lose!" Every meeting I would bring my file and take notes. Joe told me I would not be allowed to bring my file of documents and supportive evidence to the trial.
During our deposition and trial the contractor claims to not have need a permit to construct a wall that is over 5' 5"tall. I questioned Joe and said I couldn't believe that was true. During our survey I requested a height measurement and Joe refused. After our trial I called Shannon Begeman with the Building Commission and found anything over 4ft requires a building permit. A building inspector visited the site and Elpers was fined.
During our trial Joe left out many important facts, architectural plans and photos. We have two letters of support from former HOA Presidents, one being an Engineer. Both Presidents agreeing that the neighbors were in violation. Joe did not use this important information. Joe was aware of many other homeowners, an HOA Treasurer, my brother in law attorney/Judge who all supported our case and we should have used them as supportive witnesses, but did not. Unbeknownst to us Joe used the opposing contractor as our "expert witness" damaging our case. During the trial Joe asked the Defendant to read aloud the bylaws. The Defendant misread and jumped out of order while reading. Joe never corrected him allowing him to come up with his own interpretation. During my testimony Joe handed me a document to read which was completely illegible. There were many distorted documents used in our case. We provided clear legible documents and can only conclude this was intentional or careless. Joe also neglected to inform the Judge of our absolute right clause.
For the post trial brief we asked them to focus more attention on the free standing walls, corner shower, benches, doors plumbing and electrical. Again Joe failed to bring this into our brief. The exhibits and photos that were submitted were not approved by us nor supported our case. Joe told us he would use a Building Committee approved plan and he did not. Instead Joe used a fake inaccurate plan. We requested to see the final brief and we're never given the opportunity. It is now obvious we were set up to fail.
Joe Langerak kept us uninformed and delayed getting information to us in a reasonable amount of time.
In November 2020 we requested a letter of Engagement several times, it did not come till March 17, 2021 the day of our trial. In this contract it basically says " We waive our rights to any conflicts of interest even if we don't sign this contract".
We were told there would be monthly billing there was not. We received the first initial billing of $19,585 but did not receive any more invoicing till May of 2021. Total billing came to over $130,000. After several complaints we are still in dispute. We feel our case was handled terribly and feel future clients need to be warned!
Sincerely,
Susan Lattner

I’ve dealt with my fair share or custody attorneys, but Jillian’s professionalism, promptness and straightforwardness are top notch!
