Jackson & Oglesby Law LLC

Focus and bankruptcy services

Bankruptcy is the clear focus of Jackson & Oglesby Law LLC. The firm handles consumer cases under Chapter 7 and Chapter 13. Its listed work also covers creditor harassment, credit card debt, debt discharge, wage garnishment, exempt property, joint filings and emergency filings. Foreclosure and foreclosure defense appear within that debt work.

The website organizes the firm's services around the two named bankruptcy chapters. It also identifies the debt problems connected with those filings. This gives prospective clients a concrete account of the matters the attorneys handle.

Jackson & Oglesby Law LLC states that it files cases in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Indiana. That court reference defines the geographic and legal setting for its bankruptcy work. It is a useful fact for people who want to confirm where the firm files cases.

How the legal team is built

Managing partners

Michael L. Jackson and Dana L. Oglesby are the firm's managing partners. Both concentrate their work on consumer bankruptcy, with Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 named in their attorney descriptions. Their shared management roles also give the firm two attorneys at the leadership level.

Michael Lee Jackson earned a B.A. in Political Science and a J.D. from Indiana University/Purdue University at Indianapolis. He previously worked as a lead attorney at Geraci Law during 2009 and 2010. His work at Jackson & Oglesby Law LLC covers Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 cases, while his attorney description also names Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

Dana L. Oglesby earned a B.S. in Political Science and Sociology from the University of Evansville. She received her J.D. from Valparaiso University School of Law. Her work concentrates on Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 cases for individuals, and she worked earlier in her career at Geraci Law, LLC.

Associate attorney

Keith E. Gifford is an associate attorney with the firm. He earned a B.A. from Indiana University. His listed work covers bankruptcy and debt, contracts and agreements, and foreclosure matters.

Gifford's stated subject areas connect with several services on the firm's main bankruptcy pages. Foreclosure and debt concerns appear both in his profile and in the firm's service descriptions. Contracts and agreements give his published profile a separate area beyond the three bankruptcy categories matched for this directory.

Experience and professional affiliations

The firm states that its attorneys have more than 30 years of combined bankruptcy experience. That figure applies to the team as a whole. The individual attorney descriptions add useful context through their education, prior legal work and stated case areas.

Jackson & Oglesby Law LLC reports accreditation by the Better Business Bureau. It also identifies itself as a member of the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys. These are verifiable affiliation details, though neither should be read as a promise about the result of any case.

The strongest support for the firm's stated focus comes from the close match between its service pages and attorney descriptions. Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 appear across the firm material and the profiles of both managing partners. Bankruptcy and debt also appear in Gifford's description.

Coverage across central Indiana

The firm is based in the Indianapolis area and lists locations in Plainfield, Greenwood, Anderson and Muncie. It also lists two Indianapolis locations, one in the northeast part of the city and one in the west. This footprint gives the firm a presence across several central Indiana communities.

Its stated service area includes Indianapolis, Greenwood, Muncie and Anderson. The website also names Marion County and Johnson County. Those details align with the locations presented by the firm and with its stated work in the Southern District of Indiana.

The Plainfield location is particularly relevant to this directory listing, while the other listed locations show a wider regional reach. Prospective clients can identify the city that fits their needs before making contact. The website presents the locations as part of one firm with the same bankruptcy focus.

What prospective clients can verify

The firm's website gives readers several concrete points to check. It names the attorneys, their roles, the main bankruptcy chapters and the court where cases are filed. It also supplies education and prior employment details for the managing partners, along with stated subject areas for the associate attorney.

The service descriptions go beyond the broad label of bankruptcy law. They identify wage garnishment, creditor harassment, credit card debt, foreclosure, exempt property and emergency filings. That detail can help a reader decide whether a current debt concern falls within the firm's published work.

The team structure is also easy to understand. Two managing partners lead the firm, and one associate attorney is named. The website ties each attorney to bankruptcy or debt work, which supports a consistent picture of the firm's main concentration.

Reviewer assessment

In my opinion, the most useful feature of this listing is the consistency of its evidence. The named services, attorney roles and court information all point to consumer bankruptcy as the firm's central work. The website also distinguishes Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 instead of relying on a broad bankruptcy label alone.

Jackson & Oglesby Law LLC presents a focused option for individuals considering bankruptcy in central Indiana. Its published material supports work on consumer filings and several related debt issues. The stated regional locations may also matter to clients who prefer a firm with access across more than one city.

No affiliation or experience figure can predict a particular legal result. Still, the firm's stated combined experience, named attorney team and bankruptcy association membership give readers factual points for comparison. On the available record, the firm has a clearly defined consumer bankruptcy focus with identifiable attorneys and a stated federal court venue.
