Matt LaTulip is an experienced trial attorney whose personal motto is: it is always better to be over-prepared than not to have done enough. When we take a case, we prepare as if it is going to trial. We conduct thorough review of all the facts involved. We locate documents, interview witnesses and consult with highly-regarded experts.
The result? Our clients often receive a fair plea bargain or have the charges against them dismissed without the necessity of a trial. Our thorough preparation and reputation for success at trial often encourages our opponents to settle matters before reaching the courtroom. In 2005, attorney Matt LaTulip, and the lawyers associated with him at the time, were listed as one of the "Most Prolific Trial Law Firms" in the state of Indiana. (The Indiana Jury Verdict Reporter, 6th Edition). This accomplishment is determined not by favoritism or other easily swayed polling processes, but rather solely by the volume of cases that were tried to jury verdict in the state of Indiana.
