About The Program

Indiana's armed service personnel make great sacrifices on behalf of their fellow Hoosiers. One basic benefit that service personnel are and should be entitled to is legal assistance in a range of civil and non-criminal contexts, particularly when these service men and women are actively deployed. Regrettably, access to this kind of representation frequently is not available for Indiana-based personnel and their families because of limited resources currently available through the appropriate service wings.

The Military District of Indiana, the Indiana State Bar Association, the Indiana Pro Bono Commission, the Indiana Bar Foundation, local bar associations, and the law firm of Baker & Daniels have partnered in an effort to bridge this gap between existing needs and available resources. A pool of attorneys volunteer to assist actively deployed Indiana-based service personnel and their families according to criteria and guidelines established by the Military District of Indiana.

If you are a member of the Indiana National Guard who is actively deployed, scheduled for deployment, or returning from a deployment, please contact Kris Fisher to learn more about this program.
