Townsend & Townsend, LLP

Empathetic Law Practice Aggressively Pursues Your Rights and Recompense Due
Townsend & Townsend, LLP vigorously and relentlessly prosecutes personal injury and wrongful-death cases for clients throughout the United States.

Founded in 1941, our Indianapolis, Indiana, family-based firm has grown to span three generations of attorneys. Their combined experience includes the presentation of more than 1,000 jury trials in personal injury and wrongful-death cases.
People know us by the work we do

Townsend & Townsend aggressively pursues all types of personal injury and wrongful-death cases, including motor vehicle collisions, medical malpractice, and products and premises liability claims.

We believe that an attorney should be chosen based on the skill they have demonstrated in prior cases: The majority of our cases represent referrals by clients - many, but not all, of whom reside in Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan or Ohio - or by other attorneys. You are invited to review some of the Supreme Court and Court of Appeals opinions from cases we have worked on, so that you can have a better feel for what we do and what we can achieve.
We do not get paid until you win

We frequently enter into co-counsel or referral-fee arrangements. No matter the arrangement, any attorney fees we collect are contingent upon the successful outcome of your case. You need not worry about legal bills compounding any financial stress imposed by your injuries: As our client, you do not pay any attorney fees unless and until we win the case and collect monetary damages on your behalf.
