Vanessa López Aguilera

Many of my clients come to me when their worlds are falling apart. The majority of my law practice consists of family law issues such as divorce and child custody cases where my clients struggle with immense stress and feelings of isolation and fear.

Call for A consultation:

(317) 634-9484

I also help families strengthen their relationships by performing tasks like writing wills and handling stepparent adoptions. I provide services to LGBTQ families.

Facing issues such as divorce, parenting time, child support, or a guardianship proceeding is stressful enough. Working with a lawyer shouldn’t add to your stress.

I believe you should have a choice when it comes to hiring a lawyer to represent you in a legal case. You need a lawyer who not only is competent and professional but who also listens to you and makes you feel that you are involved in your case. No matter what kind of legal issue you are facing, I offer a consultation so you can get to know me and I can learn more about your case.

I provide a wide range of legal services, including divorce, paternity actions, child custody, child support disputes, domestic violence, wills, guardianship proceedings, and step parent or second parent adoption. If adoption is not an option but you want your children to bear either their mother’s new last name or their stepfather’s last name, I can help you unify your family through the legal process of changing your child’s last name.

I serve members of both the Spanish-speaking and English-speaking communities in Indianapolis and throughout Indiana.

In the past, members of the Indiana Latino community didn’t have the choice of a Spanish-speaking lawyer to represent them in their legal case. Now the Latino community has a choice.

I provide a wide range of legal services, including divorce, paternity actions, child custody, child support disputes, domestic violence, wills, guardianship proceedings, and step parent or second parent adoption. If adoption is not an option but you want your children to bear either their mother’s new last name or their stepfather’s last name, I can help you unify your family through the legal process of changing your child’s last name.
