Jack M. Freedman was born in Chicago, Illinois and graduated ninth in his class from North Andover Massachusetts High School. He received a B.S. degree in broadcast journalism, summa cum laude, from the Boston University School of Public Communication. He received his J.D. degree, cum laude, from the Boston University School of Law. Mr. Freedman was admitted to practice law in the State of Indiana and the United States District courts for the Northern and Southern Districts of Indiana in October 1984.

While attending high school and college, Mr. Freedman worked as an editor, reporter and photographer for the Lawrence Eagle-Tribune, a 50,000 daily newspaper based in Lawrence, Massachusetts.

Mr. Freedman began his career as an associate with the esteemed law firm of Barnes & Thornburg in Indianapolis. During his seven-year career at Barnes & Thornburg, he was involved in a wide range of business and personal injury litigation in both state and federal court. He represented such major clients as General Motors Corporation, Uniden Corporation, Fruehauf Corporation, Amtrak and the Soo Line Railroad. He had the opportunity to study and learn from some of the finest lawyers in the State of Indiana.

Mr. Freedman has been engaged in the general practice of law with Freedman & Associates and Freedman & Lacy since November 1995. Over the years, he has developed expertise in matters involving parents and children. He believes strongly in placing the children's interests first, and encourages collaboration between the parents whenever feasible. He understands how conflict between the parents may affect children at different stages of development. He is sensitive to the psychology and dynamics of each family situation, and uses this information in the formulation of appropriate legal strategies.

Mr. Freedman also practices extensively in the Marion County Juvenile Court and in juvenile courts throughout Central Indiana. Mr. Freedman has frequently fought to remedy the misuse of power by the Indiana Department of Child Services.

Mr. Freedman has been a featured speaker on family law issues, including the seminar entitled, "A Roadmap Through Divorce Proceedings" in March 2007 and the seminar entitled, "Divorce Fundamentals From A-Z: Working Toward a Reasonable Settlement" in February 2008.
