In terms of litigation, Graham’s practice includes complex civil trial and appellate work in both state and federal courts. From plaintiff’s personal injury matters, and insurance coverage disputes, to breach-of-contract and real property issues, Graham has broad base of litigation experience. He has briefed cases in state trial courts, federal district court, Indiana Court of Appeals, Indiana Tax Court, and Indiana Supreme Court. He has also engaged in certiorari-stage briefing in the Supreme Court of the United States. Graham has argued before the Court of Appeals of Indiana and has civil jury trial experience.
Graham received his A.B., magna cum laude, from Wabash College in 2011 where he earned the James E. Bingham award for promise in the legal profession. He received his J.D., cum laude, from the Indiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law in 2014. A winner of the Best Note Award presented by the IU McKinney International and Comparative Law Review for excellence in writing, in 2013 Graham was inducted into the Order of the Barristers, and in 2014 advanced to the semi-finals in the Evan A.
