About
I am an experienced trial attorney, with over 23 years practicing law. My trial experience includes high level felony drug cases, reckless homicide cases, felony OWI including serious bodily injury, burglary, armed robbery, indimidation, domestic battery, theft, and fraud as well as numerous misdemeanor cases. The majority of my first 16 years of practiuce was spent as a deputy prosecuting attorney where I concentrated on OWI cases including OWI causing death cases. In my capacity as a deputy prosecuting attorney I would routinely go to crash scenes at all hours of the day or night to assist law enforcement. Additionally, many times throughout the year I would conduct training for law enforcement officers in the areas of OWI law, search & seizure. I also participated in law enforcement training in the areas of NHTSA Field Sobriety Testing, the ECIR II, which is used to obtain a breath test in an OWI case, Drug Recognition Expert training. This has provided me with a unique experience as a defense attorney and great insight into and knowledge of the criminal justice system.My passion to do my best, to put the hours needed into a case, is now brought to defending my clients in Northwest Indiana including the counties of Lake, Porter, La Porte, St. Joseph, Newton, Jasper, Starke and Marshall in a variety of criminal cases including misdemeanors and complex felonies. In one of my first cases as a defense attorney I was able to show the State that my client was innocent through my own investigation which revealed the true perpetrator. I rely upon my honesty and integrity, presenting the facts in a straight forward manner. I maintain a strong rapport with my clients, other legal professionals and the bench. I would like to put my knowledge, dedication and experience to work for you, please call for a free consultation.

I live out of state and mr. Bennett accepted my case his office and staff were very kind and courteous they were honest and did everything they claimed they would do resulting in a dismissal of my case I would recommend mr. Bennet to anyone that asked he is a great attorney
I was recommended Mr Bennett from a friend due to the nature of my super high speeding ticket. I am very thankful he represented my case. I felt instant relief after our first conversation. Mr Bennett and the staff were very courteous and professional. I couldn’t have been happier with the outcome.
Mr Bennett was great. He was very helpful and did everything in his power to help me. I greatly appreciate all that he did for my case and I highly recommend him and his staff. Thanks so much again for your help.
I have hired Andrew Bennett to represent me twice and he did not disappoint. For my first case he was able to have it dismissed, and my second case, being an OWI, brought to a very favorable outcome. Throughout the processes he was consistently updating me and ensuring that I understood the information. Every time I went in person to his office the staff and Andrew were all welcoming and I wasn’t afraid to ask any questions. I am very happy that I chose Andrew Bennett to represent me and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an attorney.
Mr. Bennett and staff are great. He helped me when I got an OWI in Porter County. He was very helpful with getting things rolling before the initial court date and also in getting me special driving privileges since I was working out-of-town at the time. My case was also knocked down to a reckless driving.
While working in Indiana from out of state I found my self in serious legal trouble.I had never been arrested or in trouble before.I was confused scared and lost.By the grace of God I found Mr.Bennet after hours of searchOmg online for legal defense.I called his office and theses people really cared.I Came into his office very frantic and scared but he saw me and I saw him.In his eyes I saw A stern serious and yet very caring human being.We worked out the paper worked and he kept it very real with me but promised to do his best.After looking at my case and working with the prosecutor he was able to get my charges dismissed.He and his wonderful assistant kept in touch with me and it was one of the best things I’ve ever experienced.After being patient and doing my part everything worked out perfectly.He is a great man,attorney and human being and if your innocent this man will represent you very well.Thankyou so much Mr.Bennet and Ms.Cheryl your Indiana’s finest.
Mr. Bennett was the consummate professional. He was readily accessible through phone and email. Most importantly, he was successful in moving my case to pre-trial diversion and then to dismissal. Given the circumstances, it was a pleasure working with him. Thank you!
I was ticketed unjustly by the Indiana DNR for an alleged fishing violation. I did some thorough research for defense attorneys and found Mr. Bennett. I contacted him via email and he called me the next day. He understood my situation and all of the facts surrounding the matter. He told me that he would likely find a favorable outcome and boy did he come through. He was able to convey to the prosecutor's office of my intentions to fight this case to the very end and that I would be willing to go to trial - because the facts were on my side and I was innocent. Mr. Bennett successfully presented my case and it was promptly dismissed, saving everyone's time. Yes, it would have been cheaper to just pay the ticket, but my name is clear and a wrong has been righted. If you believe that you have been wronged by the DNR, I highly recommend Andrew L. Bennett. He understands fishing and hunting regulations and is highly respected by the prosecuting districts. I will tell you that his name will be on my speed dial as my representation. I did my research on the ramifications of DNR charges and they can do some damage. There is a "points" system which can even affect your driving privileges. It's no laughing matter, get Bennett before you ever step foot in a Courtroom.
While visiting some friends and family from out of state I got myself into trouble with a trespassing charge. He was clear and honest with me every step of the way. Not only did I not have to return to Indiana to appear in court, he was also able to get my case dismissed. Very professional and I would definitely recommend him.
I hired Andrew Bennett as representation for my DUI/OWI case. He spent time with me on the phone and in person working through my case and options with me. He conducted research on my behalf, made recommendations, and ultimately was able to work out a plea deal which lessened the overall impact and resulted in a very generous and satisfactory resolution. I am very grateful for Andrew's counsel, and would highly recommend him to anyone for any of his services offered if needed. I spoke with a number of attorneys before choosing Andrew, but his attention to detail and being a down-to-Earth, understanding, and attentive person made me choose him. I am very glad I did. Thank you very much, Andrew, for a best-case-scenario situation, considering the circumstances. Take care and all the best to you and yours.
