About Jordan Heitman
Jordan Heitman Kidd trained as a scientist before turning to law. He completed a Bachelor of Science in Biology and Psychology at the University of Southern Indiana in 2012, then earned his J.D. from Indiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law in 2015. Those academic years bracket a shift from laboratory and social science study to courtroom and client work. The combination gives him a technical background alongside legal training.
After law school, Kidd began building his practice in Indiana. Records show he began working at Wagner Reese in 2018 and has practiced under that firm's name since then. He is admitted to practice in Indiana. His early years after law school included the sorts of casework and courtroom exposure many young lawyers encounter while establishing a client base and refining courtroom skills.
At Wagner Reese, Kidd has handled matters that take him across the state. The firm maintains offices in Indianapolis, Evansville, Fort Wayne, West Lafayette and other locations, and his work has involved appearances and filings in Indiana courts. Colleagues describe his approach as steady and detail-oriented. He brings an analytical habit of mind to case preparation and legal research.
Kidd’s undergraduate study in biology and psychology informs how he approaches fact patterns and evidence. He can read technical documents and scientific reports and place them in a legal context. That background can be useful where factual complexity demands careful parsing of underlying science or human behavior. He also stays involved in professional circles and holds current memberships in bar and local legal organizations.
Clients and other lawyers see him as a practical problem solver. He often works on litigation and transactional matters handled by his team at Wagner Reese, alternating between court hearings and client counseling. He is comfortable in both the office and the courtroom, and he aims to present clear options to clients.
Kidd balances courtroom work with the everyday demands of an Indiana practice. He frequently appears in state court and manages client files from several of the firm’s offices. He practices law in Indiana and continues at Wagner Reese, where his current practice concentrates on matters arising in the state.
