Licensed in both Indiana and West Virginia, Dollens also has extensive experience representing financial institutions, servicers, and consumer finance companies in consumer and commercial contexts. 

“I am honored to be taking over the helm of the Indianapolis office from Linden,” said Dollens. “I look forward to furthering our investment in the community, continuing to build upon our strategic growth, and expanding client relationships in the market.”

Dollens has received several recognitions of her work including being named by Indiana Super Lawyers® in 2016, The Best Lawyers in America® in 2014-2016, and Indiana Super Lawyers-Rising Stars® in 2010-2012. She was named Indiana Defense Lawyer of the Year by DTCI in 2013 and is recognized as a Distinguished Fellow by the Indianapolis Bar Foundation.

“Lucy has proven herself to be a remarkable litigator,” said Linden Barber. “She has earned the confidence of our entire office, and her enthusiasm for client service will energize the future growth and direction in Indianapolis.”

As Director of the firm’s DEA Compliance and Litigation practice, Barber will continue focus his practice on regulatory compliance and enforcement issues involving the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) and Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Barber provides guidance to a wide array of client including manufacturers, wholesale distributors, pharmacies, hospitals and individual practitioners.
