PERSONAL INJURY

Personal Injury Attorneys in Warsaw, Kosciusko County, Indiana. We concentrate our injury practice on auto collisions, semi-truck and motorcycle accidents, pedestrian, slip and fall, construction accidents and traumatic brain injury cases. The personal injury attorneys at Miner & Lemon, LLP are dedicated to providing you with the answers you need at the time when you need them the most. Dealing with insurance companies after you have been hurt can be frustrating and confusing. It can be unsettling if you think that the insurance company is taking advantage of you but you are not sure what to do about it. You need someone on your side who knows the tactics used by insurance representatives. We know those tactics and have experience dealing with them. We have also published a book which is available through our website entitled "Outrunning the Ambulance Chasers" which provides a good deal of insight on personal injury claims. Please click on the title in the upper right corner of the website to request a free copy.

TRUCK ACCIDENTS

Truck accident claims are often investigated and handled differently than other injury claims. It is important to have an attorney who has experience in handling truck accident claims. We are located in Kosciusko County, Indiana where truck accidents along State Highway 30 are, unfortunately, occuring way to often due to the number of traffic lights and speeding trucks. We have valuable experience in working truck accident claims and litigation.

WRONGFUL DEATH

When the careless acts of others result in the wrongfult death of a loved one, we can help you. Whether the death was a result of a motor vehicle collision, truck accident, a dangerous or defective product, construction site accident or any other cause, Miner and Lemon can help you explore your options for recovery.

BANKRUPTCY & DEBT RELIEF

CRIMINAL

Our criminal law attorneys are former prosecuting attorneys with a vast amount of trial experience as both prosecutors and defense attorneys. At Miner & Lemon, LLP we have successfully defended clients accused of murder, assault, rape, and OWI. Contact us today and we will evaluate your situation and provide an honest assessment of your case.

AGRICULTURE BUSINESS STRUCTURING AND WEALTH PLANNING

Planning for the transfer or succession of your farm is of paramount concern to the family farmer and has become more complicated in recent times. Wealth planning and transfers require legal expertise in this specialized area to protect your assets and way of life. At Miner & Lemon LLP we have family farm experience and understand the importance of protecting your future and your assets. Please contact us to discuss how we may assist you to prepare for the future.

BUSINESS PLANNING

The attorneys at Miner & Lemon are experienced at handling all your business law needs from business development, business document preparation, business exit planning and business litigation. Our attorneys are ready to assist you with every need your business may require.

ELDER LAW

As you grow older, your legal needs change. Whether you need legal advice regarding powers of attorney, guardianships, the costs of long term care, or setting up a special needs trust, the attorneys at Miner & Lemon, LLP, are here for you. We understand that issues like advanced directives and disability planning can be very sensitive, and that is why, in addition to our knowledge of elder law, our attorneys and staff are known for adding a caring, personal touch to every case we handle.

ESTATE PLANNING AND SPECIAL NEEDS TRUSTS

When you get to the point in your life when you start to think about providing for your family after you are gone, you want more than an attorney who can fill in the blanks on a standard Will or Trust document. You want an attorney who will listen carefully to what you have to say about your family and their concerns and who will implement those plans to ensure your family’s continued security. At Miner & Lemon, LLP we have experience in estate planning and know how to minimize the costs and taxes to your estate while assuring creditor and predator protection.

PROBATE/ESTATE AND TRUST ADMINISTRATION

When someone you love has passed away, it can be hard to assume responsibility for tying up all the loose ends of their estate or trust, and the personal representative’s or trustee’s tasks can be overwhelming. The personal representative or trustee may need to notify creditors, decide which debts or claims should be paid, create inventories or final reports to account for all the property of the deceased, as well as have any final income tax returns, federal estate tax returns or state inheritance tax returns prepared. If you have been named an executor, personal representative, or trustee for a loved one and feel that you need help during the probate, estate or trust administration process, the attorneys at Miner & Lemon, LLP would be glad to put our experience to work for you.
