About

My name is Sean Hessler, and I'm an Indianapolis criminal defense lawyer focused on protecting my clients' rights and defending their freedom. I'm originally from Indiana, and I attended Monmouth University for college and Indiana University for law school. I always knew I wanted to work and live in Indianapolis, where I felt like I could do the most with criminal defense.After law school, I spent several years as a deputy prosecutor in Marion County, where I had the opportunity to see how the State handles criminal cases. Many of my cases focused on gang violence and drug crimes. I left my role as a prosecutor because I wanted to help people who have been wrongfully accused of crimes, as well as people whose rights are at stake.

Sean was responsive to my concerns, answered questions in a timely manner, and provided me with the best advice for my situation. He is friendly, professional, and supportive and gives explanations for different decisions and options.

Sean & his team were not only professional & experienced, they were unbelievable at communicating with myself throughout the process. Each step of the case was reviewed internally & discussed on a phone call with myself, prior to direction being taken. He was knowledgeable and was able to advise intelligently based on each variable in the case. I could not be happier with the service I received.

The team was very responsive with each and every concern myself and my family had. Sean was always honest and straight forward about what to expect with each and every step. The communication was great. Highly recommend.

Sean's expertise helped me dismiss my case. The privilege of having online account helped me maintain communications with Sean. He was prompt in answering any questions regarding my case. Becky was quick at providing updates and informing about each stage where case was going.

I found Sean Hessler to be very competent and professional. He gave extremely helpful counsel and fought very hard on my behalf. I would recommend his services to anyone dealing with OVWI or similar charges.

I called Hessler Law seeking counsel for my husband. They were the second law office I called and only law office to answer the phone and provide me with information in regard to my husband’s case. Sean and Becky kept us informed and prepared. Very pleased with the results!

Sean and Becky are two wonderful people, working to help those of us who are basically ignorant of the criminal court/law enforcement system. I was caught up in an unpleasant law enforcement situation and didn't know where to turn. I called Sean at Hessler Law, and he met me at the courtroom the very next day. From that moment, Sean and Becky (who was very capable and helpful) guided me through all of the demands and expectations of the prosecutor's office to finally have the case dismissed and future court dates in the matter vacated. The attorney fees were reasonable, and the services were exceptional. I would certainly recommend Sean and Becky to anyone who is slammed with a criminal justice matter that seems to be overwhelming to the average citizen.

My first time in trouble with the law ever. I was very terrified, but working with Mr Hessler made feel calm, he is very professional and Becky is the best. Even though my case didn't go the way I wanted, I know he did everything he could considering the fact. In the end he helped me make the right decision and I would hire him again in a heart beat. So please talk to Mr Hessler before you admit anything out of fear that you cant take it back. Thank you.

Imagine walking through life, day by day, year after year. Confident but not cocky. You've never been in trouble in your life and you've had minimal interaction with the police. You're on cruise control. A full-fledged contributing member of society. An adult. Then ... You call a police officer because you lock your keys in your car only to find out that you have TWO FELONY CHECK FRAUD CHARGES OUT OF STATE!! I'm going to skip past the 23-day unwanted vacation I spent in the luxurious Clermont County Jail while waiting transport to Indianapolis Indiana. I appear at my initial hearing confident that this was a mistake. The courthouse staff could not find my paperwork because the charges were so old, pre-internet and were being stored at an off-site location. Then I got the bad news. Someone had found some old payroll checks laying around and cashed $14,000+ worth of checks using my signature. Nervously I start searching Google and calling attorneys in the Indianapolis area. Late that evening around 11 p.m. or so I was live chatting with a paralegal at Mr Hesslers office. I received a follow-up phone call the next day to discuss the charges and my options. This was the first time while searching Google and making phone calls to find an Indianapolis attorney that I actually felt that not only this person could help but they were eager to help and confident they could bring the matter to a positive resolution. At the risk of running on or sounding redundant let me finish by saying this. I live in Cincinnati Ohio. I have never met Mr. Hessler. I have never met Becky who was my contact at his office throughout this entire ordeal. I was quoted a price. They offered me a payment plan which I took advantage of and there were no hidden charges. Did I mention my case got dismissed?! Thats right. I have never been back to Indianapolis since my initial hearing before hiring Mr. Hessler. Mr Hessler if you are reading this I could write this review using just one word. PROFESSIONALISM From the very first phone call to the very last email your company has been nothing but professional. Your staff was always friendly and eager to help.

Sean helped explain the legal process to me thoroughly and ensured I knew all of my options in a manner I understood and felt comfortable. Rebecca does a wonderful job also of being professional but providing great customer service. I would recommend this firm to anyone who is seeking services!
