Firm Information
Overview
Located in Columbia City, Indiana, Shilts & Setlak, LLC, delivers focused family law advocacy to families across northeast Indiana. Since 2005, we have believed that thoughtfully negotiated resolutions best serve the long-term interests of parents and children alike. By emphasizing cooperation, we help clients sidestep protracted disputes and reduce legal fees, while still protecting their rights and objectives.
Our practice began with attorney Perry D. Shilts’s vision of a firm dedicated solely to family law. In 2011, attorney Mike A. Setlak joined the team, and by 2015, he became a partner, reinforcing our commitment to personalized service. We have since adopted a corporate structure that enables us to combine boutique-level attention with efficient case management. With decades of shared experience, we skillfully address the full spectrum of family law matters such as divorce, child custody, parenting time, spousal and child support, property division, and post-judgment modifications.
We recognize that legal conflict can exact a heavy toll, not only on clients but especially on children. Our goal is to minimize hostility and focus on constructive solutions. By tailoring strategies to your family’s unique circumstances, we promote stability and encourage respectful co-parenting. When litigation becomes necessary, we prepare aggressively, drawing on our in-court proficiency to safeguard your interests.
We offer both in-office and virtual consultations, ensuring that geography or scheduling constraints never impede your access to quality counsel. When you entrust your family law matter to Shilts & Setlak, LLC, you gain a partner who will listen intently, explain your options clearly, and pursue the most practical path to resolution.
Reach out today to schedule a confidential appointment and take the first step toward a more stable and hopeful future.
