A Lifeline in a Complex Construction Dispute

When our small commercial development project in Indianapolis became mired in a multi-party construction defect lawsuit, we were overwhelmed. The opposing parties were well-funded and aggressive. Hiring Thomas Blackwell was the best decision we made. His four decades of experience, particularly his recognized expertise in construction litigation, were immediately apparent. He didn't just see the legal arguments; he understood the building science, the contracts, and the industry dynamics at play. Mr. Blackwell and his team at Blackwell, Burke, Fowler & Rossow meticulously deconstructed the other side's claims, guided us through a strategic mediation, and secured a settlement that not only protected our company financially but also preserved our reputation. His calm, seasoned professionalism kept us focused during a highly stressful two-year process. His recognition by Best Lawyers is well-deserved, but it's his practical wisdom and genuine dedication to his clients' success that truly set him apart. We cannot recommend him highly enough for any complex commercial or construction-related legal challenge.
