I am a native Hoosier, born in Valparaiso, Indiana. My father was a farmer, and my mother was a schoolteacher.ย I was raised on a farm in southeastern LaPorte County and attended public schools in Walkerton, Indiana. My wife of 50+ years, Nancy, is also from Walkerton. I have undergraduate and law degrees from Indiana University Bloomington (A.B., with distinction, 1972; J.D., cum laude, 1975), was elected to Phi Eta Sigma and Phi Beta Kappa scholastic honorary societies. Nancy is also a graduate of Indiana University and is a retired teacher who taught reading at the Bluffton Elementary School. We have lived in Bluffton since July 1975. We are members of the Bluffton First United Methodist Church. We have two daughters, Sarah Withers, a pharmacist at CVS in Bluffton, and Christina Kurut, a registered nurse at Lutheran Hospital in Fort Wayne. We have four wonderful grandchildren: Hannah, Ash, Hudson, and Jasmine.
My mentor attorney told me early on in my career to concentrate on the quality of my work, the rest will follow.ย Approximately 50 years of practice have enabled me to build a skill set that will help me guide you through the legal process. I have focused my practice on the areas of family law, real estate, estate planning and administration, wills and trusts, business law, and personal injury. I have been privileged to serve on the Wells County Election Board since 1978 and as the attorney for Wells County for nearly a decade.
My goal is to provide my clients with excellent legal assistance and effective representation. If you have the need for a lawyer, I would be happy to meet with you and help you resolve your legal concerns.
David Crell was great! I searched & read reviews on other lawyers, & he stood out the most for me. Handled privately, with no court appearances. That was an absolute plus. He gave quick, straight-to-the-point responses. The price is decent. Very well worth it when you want & need something done without dealing with the headache yourself. He answered any...
David Crell was very welcoming and understanding during my stressful divorce. He kept me up to date on what was happening and made sure I understood all my options. He was more on top of things than my ex's lawyer, that's for sure. Thank you so much, Mr. Crell.
Highly recommend. During a very emotional and sensitive time, David helped give me the peace of mind I needed to be able to stay in my home. Very grateful for his services and getting my name on the deed to my home
David Crell did a fantastic job with my difficult divorce! Excellent attorney! I canโt recommend him enough.
I had a great experience working with David Crell. Could not ask for a better attorney to help me during this time!
