About Shircliff Law LLC

Decades of Criminal Defense Experience Serving Central Indiana

I am attorney David Shircliff and have represented thousands of clients in misdemeanor and felony matters, including 180 jury trials. Since 1990, I have devoted my career to criminal defense because your freedom, reputation, and future deserve strong protection. My work has been shaped by experience as a public defender and private defense attorney, giving me unique insight into how prosecutors build cases.

As an adjunct professor in Indianapolis and a National Criminal Defense College faculty member, I draw on my knowledge of federal and state procedures to teach lawyers across the country. Few attorneys in Hamilton County can match this level of courtroom and academic experience. When you place your case in my hands, you receive a combination of proven trial advocacy and direct client care rarely found in larger firms.

Your choice of attorney matters. Misdemeanor and felony charges carry serious penalties, and now is not the time to hire an inexperienced associate. You need a defender who understands what is at stake and is ready to challenge the opposition on your behalf.
