Are we talking the same Justin Key?
Justin represented me (poorly) in 2014. He was reading emails in the corner while I, a 60 year old man who had worked all his life, was stripped down to the bone. By the time it was over, she got cash, half of my 27 year pension (after only being with me 17 years), I was left with living on $200 a mo...

Replied last October 22, 2021Thank you for your message. Although this case is now almost a decade old, it appears to be concerning case 22C01-1212-DR-000929, the history of which is publicly available at http://mycase.in.gov On July 1, 2014, the parties in this case, at mediation, signed an agreement resolving their divorce. We never treat any case as a training mission and trust our client's discretion as to whether they desire to settle their case and end their marriage at mediation.

Truly the best
Justin was recommended as one of the best. I’m a divorced dad of a little girl, and all I wanted was to spend more time with my daughter. While my ex threw everything she had at us, by Gods mercy and Justin’s experience, in the end I gained equal parenting time. I appreciated Justin’s expertise, prof...

Justin made the divorce process that I went through very easy and simple to understand. He was great at responding to questions and was both empathetic of the situation and a good teacher when it came to explaining the intricacies of the process.

Smooth as could be
Justin was great throughout the entire divorce process. He was honest and knowledgable and never pushed for anything I wasn't comfortable with. I made it through the whole process uncontested and was never pressured for anything other than that outcome.

Friendly, efficient, responsive
I reached out as a new client to Justin Keys in a pinch to help with having one document signed by a judge. Justin took the time to meet with me and allowed me to explain what I needed. He submitted the doc for me, kept me updated as to the progress, and notified me promptly when the process was comp...

"Justin is a bright attorney and one of the most tech-savvy attorneys practicing today."
"Attorney Key and I have practices that overlap in only very minor ways. Despite that, I share his desire to help others and you can tell from his profile that Justin does more than give lip service to this. He volunteers to help seniors, children and other vulnerable individuals through the volunteer work that he does. Most lawyers know the law and are competent practitioners. The kind of lawyer you want when you need a lawyer is the attorney that truly cares about people. Justin is that kind of lawyer, which you can readily see from scanning his profile. He is the kind of lawyer that other lawyers recommend their clients, friends and family members to. He is the kind of lawyer that you want to contact, if you are dealing with challenging life circumstances and do not know what to do. For these reasons, I am happy to endorse Justin and to recommend his services. James Frederick"
