About Us
Fully Committed to Every Client, Every Case
Ziemer & Ziemer is a law firm in Indiana focused on family law and criminal defense, based in downtown Evansville. As a family law firm in Indiana and a criminal law firm in Indiana serving Vanderburgh, Gibson, and Warrick counties, the firm was founded in January 2026 by attorneys Jay A. Ziemer and Holly Ziemer. Founded in January 2026 by attorneys Jay A. Ziemer and Holly Ziemer, the firm brings a rare combination of legal experience to clients facing the most difficult moments of their lives.
Jay A. Ziemer has practiced law for more than 34 years. He has served as an Assistant Public Defender in Cook County, Illinois, a Vanderburgh County Deputy Prosecuting Attorney, a partner at Bowers Harrison LLP, and the founder of Ziemer Law, LLC. That dual history — building cases for the prosecution and fighting for the defense — gives clients an inside look at how the other side thinks.
Holly Ziemer is a former partner at Bowers Harrison LLP and brings a strong background in civil and family law matters. Together, Jay and Holly operate as a personal, hands-on team where clients work directly with the attorneys on their case, not a paralegal or associate.

WHY ZIEMER & ZIEMER
Experience, Integrity & Dedication on Every Case
Clients choose Ziemer & Ziemer because of what the firm offers that no other Evansville law firm can match. Jay Ziemer has argued cases from both sides of the courtroom — as a public defender protecting the accused and as a Vanderburgh County prosecutor building the state’s case. That dual perspective means every defense strategy is built with a thorough understanding of how the opposition operates.
Holly Ziemer’s background as a former partner at one of Southwest Indiana’s largest firms adds depth across family law and civil matters. Together, they run a practice where personal accountability is not a marketing phrase. Jay answers his own phone. Cases are handled by the attorneys, not passed off to support staff.
- Dual prosecution and defense experience in the same attorney
- Husband-and-wife team with personal investment in family outcomes
- Jay answers his own phone — direct attorney access every time
