I am Attorney Eric Blankenship, who many clients call a friend. For over 17 years, I have practiced criminal law as both a defense lawyer and a prosecutor. I was a deputy prosecutor in Hamilton County and eventually rose to the role of Chief Deputy Prosecuting Attorney for Blackford County, meaning I have in-depth knowledge of what the prosecuting party seeks in a case. This experience paired with my impactful defense strategies can help you fight your criminal accusations.

Criminal Defense Cases

With Your From Start to Finish

Standing Up for You & Protecting Your Legal Rights

Your freedom and future matter, and I can work to help you prevent a mistake from destroying your life. I help clients tackle a vast range of criminal charges, including:

  • Domestic violence
  • Drug crimes
  • DUI/OWI
  • Expungements
  • Sex crimes
  • Theft Crimes
  • Violent Crimes

Whatever your legal needs are, I can provide you with the right resources to accommodate them. I will do whatever it takes to help you feel hope and confidence during this difficult time. Following your criminal accusation, I advise against speaking to police officers about your charge, because anything you say can and will be used against you in court.

This familiar yet truthful statement could make or break your case. It’s important to consult with me, a Carmel criminal defense attorney, as soon as possible so I can advise you on what to do and what not to do. The legal counsel provided at Blankenship Law, LLC has helped countless clients resolve their criminal charges, and yours could potentially be next. Let’s collaborate on the best steps towards your freedom.
