Dedicated & Tenacious Litigation Lawyers in Indianapolis

Hancock County Local Counsel Attorney in Greenfield, IN

Hancock County splits its docket between a Circuit Court and two Superior Courts sitting in Greenfield. Civil litigation, including personal injury and negligence claims, generally runs through the Circuit Court or Superior Court 1, while Superior Court 2 handles traffic infractions, misdemeanors, and small claims. Knowing that split matters for getting a case in front of the right judge from the start.

Hancock County sits just east of Indianapolis, and its courts see litigation tied to both local Hancock County matters and business that spills over from the Indianapolis metro area.

Will Riley’s Super Lawyers, Top 100 Trial Lawyers, and AV Preeminent recognition, along with Russell Cate’s Super Lawyer recognition and appellate experience before the Indiana Court of Appeals and Indiana Supreme Court, is the kind of standing that carries weight with Hancock County judges and opposing counsel.
