Millions Of Dollars Recovered For Our Clients.
Dedicated & Tenacious Litigation Lawyers in Indianapolis
RileyCate, LLC serves as local counsel for out-of-state attorneys handling cases in Indiana state and federal courts. We associate under Indiana Admission and Discipline Rule 3(2), review and co-sign filings, and stay engaged with the matter for as long as it’s active. We’ve done this enough times, across enough courts, that getting a case set up with us is straightforward and fast.
Working with us means working directly with Will Riley or Russell Cate, not a first-year associate who signs where they’re told. We turn around filing review quickly, we’re available for hearings when a court requires local counsel to appear, and we stay out of your way on strategy while making sure the procedural side of the case in Indiana runs cleanly. If a court, a clerk, or opposing counsel raises a local practice issue you didn’t anticipate, we handle it.
We serve as local counsel in courts throughout Indiana, including Marion, Hamilton, Boone, Hendricks, Tipton, Hancock, Madison, Delaware, Bartholomew, and Monroe counties, as well as the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana, across civil litigation, business disputes, personal injury, and criminal matters. No two of these courts run exactly alike, and we know the differences firsthand. Find your court below for what’s specific to that venue.
Serving as local counsel means putting your name and professional standing behind another attorney’s work in front of judges you appear before regularly, so the relationship only works if that standing is real. Will Riley is recognized as a Super Lawyer, a Top 100 Trial Lawyer, and holds an AV Preeminent rating from Martindale-Hubbell, the highest rating available for legal ability and ethical standards. Will Riley and Russell Cate lead our local counsel team. Russell Cate is also recognized as a Super Lawyer and has argued alongside Will Riley before both the Indiana Court of Appeals and the Indiana Supreme Court, giving our local counsel clients real appellate depth alongside decades of trial experience.
Will and Russell personally oversee every local counsel engagement we take on, staffing it with the attorneys, associates, and staff the matter calls for based on its size and complexity. You’re not getting a name that shows up on a filing and disappears. You’re getting a firm that treats the engagement like it matters, because our standing with Indiana courts is what makes us useful to you in the first place.
Nobody plans to need a lawyer. When something goes wrong, what you need first is someone who will listen, tell you honestly where you stand, and take the next steps off your plate. That is how every case at RileyCate, LLC begins.
We represent individuals, families, and small businesses across Fishers, Indianapolis, and surrounding counties in personal injury and complex litigation, business and real estate disputes, criminal defense, and appeals.
