You might have noticed that this blog has been very quiet for the past month. There are two reasons for this period of silence. First, probate litigation was not a signficant source of appellant decisions in June. Second, Alerding Caster LLP was given the honor and privilege of adding a new named partner as of June 28th: Brian Hewitt.
Brian is an extremely gifted attorney with over twenty years of experience and is an icon in the legal community. In fact, in 2009, Brian was selected as an Indiana Super Lawyer by his peers. While Brian’s practice includes commercial, corporate and banking law – for purposes of probate litigation, there is probably no better attorney in the State of Indiana. Brian is known state-wide for his skills as a mediator – and in particular for matters involving probate litigation. Having used Brian numerous times as mediator in the past, the reason for his success is obvious: he understands not only the legal criteria of probate litigation but also the personal (and oftentimes highly dynamic) aspects of the people affected by the litigation: friends and families of the deceased. In short, Brian defines what it means to be a probate litigator/mediator.
The other aspect of Brian's arrival is the new office Alerding Castor Hewitt LLP in Greenwood Indiana. Brian is a long-time resident of Johnson County and has many long-standing personal and professional relationships in that community. Brian’s fully committed to maintaining those relationships and adding a new office for this firm in that community will allow him to do so. The new offices of Alerding Castor Hewitt LLP in Greenwood are located at 972 Emerson Parkway Suite A, Greenwood, IN 46143. Contrary to some reports the firm is not moving to Greenwood. Alerding Castor Hewitt LLP will have two office locations - one in Greenwood and one in Indianapolis.
Welcome Brian!
