About Anne E.
Anne E. Hepler returned to the classroom after several years and completed her law degree at Indiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law in 2011. She had earlier earned a Bachelor of Arts from Cornell College in 2000. Those two degrees bookend a period that shaped her move into the practice of law.
After earning her J.D., she became licensed to practice law in Indiana. Her legal training combined classroom instruction with practical experience in clinics and internships, preparing her for courtroom work and client counseling. The sequence of degrees and licensure established a foundation she would build on in private practice.
Her career path led her to Swenson & Associates, PC, where she joined the firm’s team in a role that places her in direct contact with clients and the courts. Colleagues describe her as steady and methodical in approaching cases. She has worked on matters that require both litigation and negotiation skills, and she is comfortable moving between courtroom advocacy and the quieter work of advising clients outside of court.
Hepler’s work often involves the everyday tasks that keep a law practice running: drafting pleadings and agreements, conducting legal research, preparing witnesses, and handling discovery. She spends time in courtrooms and conference rooms. She also spends time preparing clients for the procedural rhythm of a case, explaining deadlines and likely next steps.
Outside of individual matters, Hepler pays attention to the practical side of law practice. She takes care to maintain clear communication with clients and to manage timelines so cases proceed efficiently. Those operational priorities help clients understand what to expect and allow the firm to meet procedural obligations.
Her educational background—Cornell College followed by Indiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law—anchors her practice. She is licensed in Indiana and is based at Swenson & Associates, PC. She currently practices at Swenson & Associates, PC, handling client representation, counseling, and negotiation in matters arising in Indiana.
