We’re proud to share some exciting news: Nate Leach, managing partner of Herrin & Leach, has been named a 2026 Indiana Super Lawyer, continuing his streak of recognition every year since 2022. Honors like this don’t happen by chance. They reflect years of careful work, ethical practice, and an unwavering commitment to the families we serve.
Each year, only about 5% of attorneys statewide are selected as Super Lawyers following a rigorous nomination, peer-review, and research process led by Thomson Reuters. Attorneys are evaluated on professional reputation, legal skill, and ethical standards. In a field like adoption law, where legal precision and deeply personal decisions intersect, this recognition carries special meaning. Families deserve an advocate who is not only experienced, but trusted and respected.
A Commitment to Adoption
At Herrin & Leach, Nate focuses exclusively on adoption and family-building law, including private adoptions, agency adoptions, stepparent and relative adoptions, foster-to-adopt cases, and assisted reproductive matters such as surrogacy and egg or embryo donation. He works closely with expectant mothers, prospective adoptive parents, and growing families to ensure their rights are protected and their paths forward are clear.
As a Fellow of the American Academy of Adoption Attorneys and an active member of the Indiana State Bar Association and American Bar Association, Nate brings both depth of experience and genuine empathy to every case. Over the years, he has developed a reputation for thoughtful legal strategy, compassionate counsel, and ethical advocacy.
