Dedicated & Tenacious Litigation Lawyers in Indianapolis

Marion County Local Counsel Attorney in Indianapolis, IN

We regularly serve as local counsel in Marion Superior Court, Indiana’s largest and busiest trial court. That means we’re not learning a courtroom’s habits on your case. We already know how the individual Civil Division courts tend to run, which judges expect what, and where the friction points tend to show up on matters like yours.

Marion County has its share of quirks an out-of-state team might not expect. Environmental cases, for example, route to Civil Division Court 13 rather than the county’s normal random assignment, and evictions are consolidated into Court 33. That’s the kind of detail we flag before it becomes a problem, not after.

Russell Cate has spent his career litigating in central Indiana courts, including Marion County, and Will Riley’s Super Lawyers, Top 100 Trial Lawyers, and AV Preeminent recognition reflects the kind of standing that Marion County judges and opposing counsel recognize. When we serve as your local counsel in Marion County, you’re getting attorneys who know the individual courts, not just the county’s local rules on paper.

Why Choose Us

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.

Will Riley and Russell Cate personally oversee every matter, staffing each case to its size and complexity. Both are recognized as Super Lawyers and have argued before the Indiana Court of Appeals and Supreme Court. Will also holds an AV Preeminent rating from Martindale-Hubbell and a Top 100 Trial Lawyer designation.

We are trial-tested, not just settlement-focused. We have tried hundreds of cases, because insurance companies, opposing businesses, and prosecutors negotiate differently with a firm willing to go the distance.

About RileyCate

Fast. We’re based minutes from downtown Indianapolis and can typically turn around association and filing review within a day. Call us directly if you’re up against a deadline.

Yes. The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana also sits in Indianapolis and follows its own local rules for temporary admission, separate from Marion Superior Court. We serve as local counsel in both.
It depends on scope, the same as any local counsel engagement. We’ll quote a structure once we know what the matter requires and how involved you need us to be.
