About

James F. Ludlow is an Indianapolis based attorney who is dedicated to helping injured people throughout Indiana and the United States. He offers clients an appropriate balance of aggressive but compassionate representation. His goal is to provide excellent service and to obtain the maximum financial recovery that is reasonable and fair for the particular injury that a client has sustained. The vast majority of his clients have never been involved in a personal injury claim or have ever hired an attorney. In fact, they have no desire to do so now, but the severity of their injuries makes them realize that they really need legal representation. He brings over 33 years experience in representing personal injury clients and those who have lost loved ones because of someone’s carelessness or negligence. In each case, James strives to understand the precise nature and extent of a client's injury. By having an in-depth understanding of the specific injury, he can better assess how this injury may affect the client, both now and in the future. This understanding is critical in determining the amount of compensation that a client rightfully deserves.Financial compensation can never take the place of a loved one who was killed, nor can it eliminate the pain or disability that your accident has caused. However, a successful personal injury or wrongful death claim can ease the financial impact of your loss or serious injury. James will work hard for fair and just compensation that can enable you to get on with your life.

After my accident I immediately began receiving mail from every attorney in and out of town. We had so many decisions and arrangements to make because we knew I would be off work for a long time. My husband and I decided to weed through the letters and pick out the ones that did not send a bunch of promises and propaganda. After about 6 calls I contacted Jay Ludlow. Almost immediately I knew we would chose him. He didn't seem desperate for our business, he gave us an opportunity to ask questions, he made no assumptions as to what we were seeking. Our first meeting, was at our home. Jay was polite and not pushy. He made us feel very comfortable. He made sure we understood the urgency of some things, and other things that could be handled over time. One of the things that really stood out for me was the fact that he never tried to force me to see doctors that I didn't need or want to see. Jay was thorough and detailed and kept us informed every step of the way. Jay truly "worked" for us! There was never a moment that I doubted choosing him to represent us. It was obvious and clear that my case was not just about money but about making sure I received the best treatment in order to get back to my way of life prior to the accident. I didn't have to worry about medical bills or people calling and harassing me. Jay in my opinion went above and beyond what we ever expected. Although I know we were not his only case at the time, it never showed. I felt as though he dedicated all of his time on my case. There was "never" a time that we did not know what was going on or what was coming up. Jay was able to provide us with more information about my injuries than we received from the physicians, which was phenomenal. Jay is compassionate yet very aggressive when it comes to getting things done. He let us know his goals and expectations and encouraged us to set our own. My accident changed my life. Having Jay Ludlow as an attorney made the changes so much easier to deal with. His representation and knowledge relieved us of so much stress. I am truly grateful. I have since referred several people to Jay and will continue to do so.

I had my very first auto accident and needed help with my claim. I had never hired a lawyer before, and I found Mr Ludlow by online search and hired him based on his highly rated reviews. I am very grateful for his assistance. Throughout the process, he was kind, reassuring and professional as was all of his staff. He helped me with my case and I was very satisfied with the outcome. I would highly recommend Mr Ludlow to anyone that needs an excellent lawyer to handle an accident claim.

Mr. Ludlow came recommended, after I was in a major semi accident. After a met & greet, I hired Mr. Ludlow and his team. The accident will cause me to have problems the rest of my life. I was very fortunate to have Mr. Ludlow explain the process to me, since I was nervous and naive about the process. Since I had ongoing issues, my case lasted a little bit longer. But Mr. Ludlow and his team kept me informed and promptly answered any questions that I had. We had a lot of meetings and Mr. Ludlow would always accommodate my schedule. There were several mediations and Mr. Ludlow never made me feel rushed, to settle. He always gave me the pro's & con's, but it was always my decision. Although we did settle prior to trial, I feel very confident that Mr. Ludlow and his team were well prepare to litigate the case. If anyone I know ever has to go through something like I did, your firm (Mr. Ludlow) will be who I recommend. Thank You

I was the passenger in a head-on collision and was severely injured. My medical bills had been piling up long before I decided to contact an attorney, and by that time the statute of limitations was close to ending. I found Mr. Ludlow on Avvo and chose him based on his ratings/reviews. I’m so glad that I did, because I’m not sure another attorney would have been as thorough and attentive as he was. There were times that he called me later in the evenings, and even on weekends, so I have no doubt he was doing his best work. While the case took about a year and a half to come to a close, he stayed in contact with me every step of the way, always explained what was going on, and assured me that he was taking care of things. My medical bills are finally taken care of because of the work Mr. Ludlow and his team put into my case. From the very beginning, being up against the statute of limitations deadline, he was efficient but still paid attention to all the details, and I have no doubt that’s why he had so many great reviews from others. Mr. Ludlow and his team are worth it, and I am 100% a satisfied client who will recommend him to anyone in the future.

I found James' blog while I was searching an insurance problem. His blog provided enough information to begin to ask the right questions. I emailed James with short statement of the facts as I saw them and to my surprise he emailed me back and them followed up with a phone call. James gave me enough information and encouraged me to try to get a resolution through the Indiana Department of Insurance first before engaging a lawyer. Short story is spot on advice and a positive outcome. Truly a lawyer that puts people and their problems first.

James and his team worked very hard to fight for my interests and kept me informed throughout the entire process. His team was super fast to respond to any of my questions, which were many and varied. Even though I live all the way on the west coast James was willing and eager to help me fight for what was owed to me. His office always made sure that I had a realistic idea of how my case was going to play out. He wasn't afraid to tell me when he thought I was making a mistake either, which was a real breath of fresh air. I would recommend James Ludlow and his team to anyone, and I will continue to use his office in legal matters.

Having never gone through a personal injury law suit and a wrongful death suit as well, Mr. Ludlow was guiding and informing us all the way through. His experience and expertise in every matter that surfaced really put my sister and I at rest. I would not hesitate for a second to recommend Mr. Ludlow to anyone because of his honest and fair treatment we received from him and also his staff.

Mr. Ludlow represented me as I was involved in a motor vehicle accident which resulted in my rotator cuff being torn and subsequent surgery and physical therapy. From the start of conversation to the very end James and his staff ensured that I was knowledgeable and educated as to the status of my case. His primary concern was for me to recover from my injuries and get healthy again. He is diligent and fought on my behalf for over a year with two stubborn Insurance companies. My case should have been textbook, however the insured and his insurance company made it difficult. James Ludlow never faltered, his faith in my case and genuine concern of the well-being of myself and family not only resulted in a settlement but reflects his expertise and experience. Should you ever be in a situation to which you have deal with multiple insurance companies, James Ludlow is definely the attorney to seek out. I am truly thankful that I followed my heart and retained him.
