At Harwell Gray Legal Counsel LLC, we primarily concentrate our practice on criminal defense and family law. We are committed to providing you with diligent representation and legal counsel when you need it the most. Located in Indianapolis, we have been serving the people of Indiana for over nine years.

Our founder, Jonathan D. Harwell, is AV Preeminent peer-review rated,* the highest rating, through Martindale-Hubbell and holds a “Superb” rating on Avvo. Even before beginning his professional journey, he proved his merits in the field of law by securing various recognitions. His long years of experience working at the State Public Defender’s Office have given him opportunities to observe legal proceedings closely and analyze the repercussions of decisions taken at each step of the way.

Representing clients in both the state and federal courts, our lawyers believe in the need to stay updated in the field of law and try innovative resolution methods that are not necessarily conventional. Appearing before a judge can be exhausting without a professional by your side. So, whether you’re facing criminal charges or a contentious divorce, you can rely on our team to take care of the paperwork and litigation process right from beginning to end.

Our attorneys can help you with charges ranging from petty misdemeanors and driving under the influence (DUI) to serious and complex felonies such as drug crimes and murder. They also assist people in resolving issues related to separation, child custody and support, spousal support, paternity, emancipation and prenuptial agreements.

As an outcome of their several years of practice, our lawyers have witnessed the complications of being convicted of a criminal offense and the impact that it can have on the individual’s life. Each decision you make after being accused of a crime may greatly influence your future. So, before taking any step that you may regret later, consult with a member of our team for an experienced opinion and professional support.

Attorney Harwell started the firm with an intent to provide cost-effective, personalized and modern representation aimed at increasing our clients’ chances of obtaining positive outcomes, and it has done just that. Time is one determinant factor that he and our team always keep in mind while working on a case, so call us today or contact us online for a free initial consultation.

We had very little hope until we hired Jonathan Harwell to handle my husband?s case. The first time I spoke to him I knew my husband was finally in good hands. He is very knowledgeable, caring and active in getting the job done. He?s a blessing that?s been sent.

I hired Harwell Legal for a child custody issue. My initial contact was with attorney Star Martinez. I found her to be confident and knowledgeable. Attorney Harlan Vondersaar represented me and did a fantastic job. The rest of the Harwell worked hard and eased my mind about the process by keeping me informed and answering my questions within 24 hrs. I highly recommend Harwell Legal Counsel.

I hired Star from Harwell Legal to help with our child support issues we are currently dealing with and have had an amazing experience so far. Star is not only helpful and knowledgeable but very supportive on what we are wanting to accomplish with this legal issue and has been amazing to work with overall.
