Monette Michaels

For the last twenty-one years, I've been a lawyer practicing everything from criminal defense to probate. A regular Renaissance lawyer. More recently, I gave up trying to change the system and have concentrated my practice to being a professional neutral--which means I try to help people solve their problems before they go in front of a judge or jury. My philosophy is if you can't work within the system -- find a better system. Aiding and abetting me in my life's goal of changing the world is my Pathologist husband of twenty-eight years and my teenage son who is trying hard to be cool right now. We also own a large cat--or, more accurately, he owns us. We're still trying to figure that one out. A life-long Hoosier, I currently live in Carmel, Indiana, a suburb of Indianapolis.
