McCready Law has hired Kellie Clark as an associate attorney in the firm's Indianapolis office, expanding its personal injury litigation team in Indiana. Clark represents individuals and families in personal injury cases and handles matters involving children, schools, institutional abuse, sexual assault, premises liability and animal attacks. She also brings a defense-side foundation from early in her career and has tried cases to verdict, including a federal jury trial.
"Kellie is a trial lawyer who understands what clients carry into these cases and what it takes to move them forward," said Michael McCready, founder and managing partner of McCready Law. "Her background in high-stakes litigation and focus on protecting vulnerable people will strengthen our work in Indiana." This strategic hire signals McCready Law's commitment to expanding its litigation capabilities in Indiana's competitive legal market, where specialized trial experience can significantly impact case outcomes and client recoveries.
Clark has been recognized by Indiana Super Lawyers (2023–2026), The National Trial Lawyers Top 40 Under 40, and was previously named an Indiana Rising Star from 2017 to 2020. Clark is a member of the Indiana State Bar Association, the American Bar Association and the Indiana Trial Lawyers Association. These professional affiliations and recognitions demonstrate Clark's established reputation within Indiana's legal community, which can translate to stronger advocacy for clients and potentially influence how opposing counsel approaches settlement negotiations.
"People come to a personal injury lawyer after something has changed their lives. It's my mission to take on the legal fight and fight for the case in court when that's what justice requires," Clark said. This client-centered approach aligns with McCready Law's stated policy of no fee unless the client wins, creating a business model where attorney compensation directly correlates with successful outcomes for injured parties.
Clark earned her Juris Doctor, cum laude, from the University of Dayton School of Law. While in law school, she served as Chief Justice of the Moot Court and worked as a staff writer for the University of Dayton Law Review. She also received honors tied to academics, intellectual property and pro bono work, including the Brother Raymond Fitz Student Leader for Justice Award. This educational background suggests strong analytical and advocacy skills that can be applied to complex personal injury litigation involving multiple liable parties or challenging legal theories.
For business leaders and technology professionals, this development illustrates how law firms are strategically building specialized teams to handle increasingly complex litigation matters. The addition of an attorney with both plaintiff and defense experience provides McCready Law with valuable perspective when evaluating case strategies and potential settlement values. Clark will be based at McCready Law's Indianapolis office at 8200 Haverstick Rd., Suite 210, Indianapolis, IN 46240.

McCready Law was founded in 1999 and handles all fields of personal injury law, including car accidents, slip and fall incidents, wrongful death, premises liability, product liability and medical malpractice cases. The firm has recovered more than $300 million for clients. This track record, combined with Clark's trial experience, positions the firm to potentially increase its market share in Indiana's personal injury sector, which could influence how insurance companies and corporate defendants approach claims involving serious injuries.
