Biography
J. DONALD CULOTTA, Esq.
Donald’s practice focuses on re-establishing his client’s life by giving them a second chance and clean slate in both Indiana and Kentucky. He understands that a criminal conviction, be it a misdemeanor or felony, can cause devastation to one’s ability to find a job, receive benefits, or merely move forward with their life, beginning anew without the chains of a conviction. As such, he is adept in working with his clients in expunging their criminal history.
