Attorney Mitch Heppenheimer

Mitch is very personable and thorough. He actually cares and wants to help you solve your problem. He is writing a letter for me as a first step in trying to get a large worldwide company to pay up on a loss claim in which they were clearly negligent and irresponsible. He has briefly laid out next st...eps to consider if the first step doesn't work out. I feel at ease and confident with Mitch helping me through a frustrating ordeal.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 1999.

Reprimanded and Admonished issued in IN, 1999

updated on 01/28/2016

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.

Mitchell’s comment:

“The disciplinary matter, which resulted in a public reprimand, occurred over 17 years ago. It concerned an inherited system used in the law firm and a very brief representation of 2 clients with conflicting interests.”
