About Alan J.
Alan J. Irvin earned his law degree from Indiana University Maurer School of Law in 1992 after completing undergraduate studies at Indiana University Bloomington in 1989. He completed his formal education at the end of the Cold War era, a time when the legal landscape began to shift toward more complex federal litigation. The dates mark a long career in practice and study that has spanned local and federal courts.
His career has included a long association with R. Lee & Associates, P.C., where he serves as Of Counsel. That title signals a seasoned practitioner who advises on matters for the firm and appears in court when needed. Over the years he has become a familiar presence in Indiana courtrooms and in several federal districts that draw commercial and civil disputes from across the Midwest.
Irvin is admitted to practice in Indiana and in three federal districts: the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Indiana, and the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana. Those admissions allow him to take cases that involve federal statutes, multi-party civil disputes and matters that cross state lines. He has built a practice that includes courtroom appearances and representation in matters that require federal jurisdiction.
He is a registered civil mediator under the Indiana Judicial Branch Commission for Continuing Legal Education. The credential reflects training and qualification to lead parties through settlement discussions and mediated resolution. Mediation work is a regular part of his practice and complements the litigation side, providing clients with alternative paths to resolve disputes.
Professional involvement extends beyond his caseload. Irvin maintains active memberships in the Indiana State Bar Association and the Indianapolis Bar Association. Those ties keep him engaged with evolving rules, state court procedure, and local practice patterns. Colleagues and other lawyers encounter him through association events, continuing education seminars, and court calendars.
Across these roles Irvin blends courtroom work and dispute resolution. He moves between federal dockets and mediation settings depending on what a case requires. His current practice centers on federal court litigation and civil mediation at R. Lee & Associates, P.C.
