about
I began practicing law in 2004 at a respected business litigation boutique in Indianapolis, where I spent 17 years learning from some of the best litigators in the state.
In 2021, I became the first General Counsel of a group of companies involved in transportation and auto racing. My responsibilities ranged from managing outside counsel in litigation nationwide, to guiding the companies through complex transactions, to negotiating a percentage of Indy 500 race prize money.
In 2025, I chose to focus full time on a new way to practice law at J Fulk Legal. Here I put my broad experience to work for a diverse base of clients with their own unique needs and meet each where it is. Always focusing on the practical, efficient solutions a business needs. And keeping my fees aligned with the value I provide.
I’m licensed to practice law in Indiana and Illinois. If you’d like to learn more about my background, visit my LinkedIn page. (Efficiency matters. Always.) I’d value the opportunity to work with you.
services
After 20+ years litigating complex disputes for businesses owners, executives, and in-house lawyers, I can help you leverage the facts and law to best position your dispute for a practical business resolution or, if necessary, a courtroom battle. Learn more here.
contract review
If your contract may as well be written in Latin, I can help you translate. It’s better (and often cheaper!) to learn what it really says before you sign it. Skip this step? I can still help (see ‘business litigation’ page).
employment
When it comes to the ever-changing employment laws, time is of the essence. I can help you create or update your employee and contractor agreements, handbook and policy documents, NDA, termination and severance paperwork, and HR policies.
If you need ongoing legal support but not a full-time lawyer, consider a fractional GC. I can be a strategic partner to manage day-to-day legal matters or litigation, issue spot, review and negotiate contracts, or support other key business initiatives. You get an experienced GC for a fraction of time at a fraction of the cost. Learn more here.
insurance
Like a roof, your risk protection portfolio keeps you dry so you can rest at night. I can review your policies and contract terms to plug any holes that could leave you unexpectedly wet or provide an opinion when coverage obligations are called into question after an unexpected occurrence.
If you miss the first turn, your race could be over. For over 20 years I’ve given sound business advice to professional race teams and drivers (including multiple winners of the Indianapolis 500® Mile Race) to help them stay on track. Learn more here.
transactions
You know where you want to get, but it’s easy to get lost in the fog. I provide advice and perspective to help clients navigate business transactions both large and small, such as entity formation, vendor contracts, consulting agreements, MSAs, and asset purchases or sales. My approach is efficient, responsive, and aligned with the pace of modern business.
Transportation law can sometimes seem like a maze. After four years navigating it as General Counsel for motor carriers and brokers, I can help you find your way. Let’s talk about FMCSRs, the Carmack Amendment, the ABC test, carriers, brokers, shippers, and contracts between all of them. Learn more here.
everything else
The law touches all of the intricately-connected parts and pieces of your business. If you have a legal need not mentioned on this page, please contact me. I’ve handled a broad range of legal issues over my 20+ years. Chances are I can help. If for some reason I can’t, I’ll be pleased to meet you and help you find someone who can.
