About

I grew up about one hour from Indianapolis, in Spencer, Indiana (near Bloomington), and graduated Owen Valley High School in 1986.  After high school, I grew my hair long and sang in a rock band for a few years.  I later attended Indiana University in Bloomington and recieved a B.S. in Business.  After working in computer networking and later at Roche Diagnostics in technical support, I attended law school at the Robert H. McKinney School of Law - Indianapolis.I have lived in Boone County since 2007.  My three children attend Stonegate Elementary and Zionsville West Middle School.  My children are active in the Boone County 4-H, so you can catch us there every year.  My hobbies include golf, basketball, football, attending my children's sporting/school events and singing (remember I used to have long hair). I recognize that chosing to call an attorney can be very intimidating.  I'm here to help you.  I'm not here to sell you something that you don't want or need.  So whether you decide to call me or not, make sure you call an attorney to get the advice you need to make the best decision possible. I am available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so if there is an emergency please don't hesitate calling.  Of course, it is easier to reach me during normal business hours.I am here to help you, so just let me know if there is anything I can do.   Membership: Indiana Trial Lawyers AssociationIndiana State Bar AssociationIndianapolis Bar AssociationAmerican Bar AssociationI grew up about one hour from Indianapolis, in Spencer, Indiana (near Bloomington), and graduated Owen Valley High School in 1986.  After high school, I grew my hair long and sang in a rock band for a few years.  I later attended Indiana University in Bloomington and recieved a B.S. in Business.  After working in computer networking and later at Roche Diagnostics in technical support, I attended law school at the Robert H.

Messaged on Avvo and shortly after, I received a phone call from JR Emerson. He read the police report and we discussed the case as well as possible outcomes. He definitely talked with me longer than some of the other lawyers I talked with. A little expensive but that comes with the knowledge and presence he has in the counties he deals with. If you have the money, he would be a safe bet.

Had a great talk with JR Emerson, told me what I need to know, what I needed to do, and was upfront on what it was going to cost. Thought of if my interests and what would be best for me. Highly recommend.

Listen I am a real person and I am not a paid advertiser. I reached out to this Law Firm and I was scared and desperate. JR personally calmed me down and told me that things would be OK but that I can't drive. He worked with me and told me everything I needed to do. His paralegals were awesome. I swear to you I'm a real person and I will personally vouch for this law firm. JR got my case dismissed. I was facing Convictions for driving while suspended with priors and possible jail time. HE knows his stuff and was worth the higher. PS This guy is honorable and a fair attorney. I hope I don't need him again, but I'm going his way if I need legal help again. Call him now!.

Sadly, I found myself in a situation where I needed an attorney. However, I didn't want to settle for just any attorney. I wanted one that would genuinely listen to my concerns, give me honest feedback, one that empathized with my situation and one that would work hard in my behalf. Thankfully, I received all of that with JR. He truly cares about the individuals that he represents. JR is a hard worker and an overall good and sincere person. I truly appreciated his hard work and dedication. Thanks again and again!

Recently, I found myself in need of a Lawyer for a family law case. After consulting with JR. He agreed and swiftly took action and had the case dismissed without ever having to appear in court. I was beyond thrilled with the results of his services. I hope I don't need a lawyer ever again, but I know who I'll call if I do.

I needed Mr. Emerson for a legal matter September of 2014. He put me at ease immediately during a very stressful situation. He was able to get a detective off my back almost immediately. JR was very concerned and always promptly returned my phone calls. A few months later I needed JR's services for my son. Again he was very professional yet concerned about my son and did everything he could do to make sure he had the best possible legal representation. He always returned my calls in a timely fashion. He is very reasonable in price but never did I feel I was not getting 100 percent for him looking out for my and my sons interests.

Mr. Emerson has been a pleasure to work with. He was not only professional and diligent but he was timely and considerate. I normally don't leave review notes because I feel they're a bunch of compliments and BS but I felt compelled to share such a positive legal experience. Thanks Mr. Emerson!

JR was very responsive and understanding to my situation. He made a very difficult situation as peaceful as possible. I would recommend him to represent any of my friends or family members. His process was clearly displayed and executed in a timly mannor. I was most impressed with his availability. He would meet after normal business hours, ALWAYS answered his calls and emails promptly. I am a paralegal and have worked with several attorneys in the past and would highly recommend JR to anyone.

JR is a problem solver, he works well with people and is very comfortable in court. For my particular situation, I did not need to go to court, but I have seen him before and was very impressed. He helped me understand the importance of dividing assets early and staying on the best terms possible in order for the separation to work. My ex and I are decent friends and JR made this a very easy thing for us. I hope you the same! Glad I chose JR, couldn't have imagined this going any smoother than this! Also, thanks for not charging me an arm and a leg! I really appreciate everything you have done for me!
