Barnes & Thornburg LLP has hired Joshua Minkler to join its white collar and investigations practice in Indianapolis. The law firm says Minkler, who has previously served as the United States Attorney for the Southern District of Indiana, is the fifth former U.S. Attorney to join the firm since 2015.

Barnes & Thornburg says Minkler will handle criminal and civil defense of government investigations and internal investigations. He will focus on white collar criminal defense, compliance, internal investigations, and complex business litigation.

“Josh is a consummate professional who has a passion for justice and the legal process that translates effortlessly to the complex white collar matters our clients are facing,” said Randy Brown, chair of the firm’s litigation department. “Clients will appreciate the tremendous skill and knowledge he offers as part of our robust and talented group of white collar practitioners.”

Minkler, a criminal prosecutor, joined the U.S. Attorney’s office in Indianapolis in 1994 as an assistant U.S. Attorney. He also served as chief of the Drug and Violent Crimes Unit and first Assistant U.S. Attorney until he was selected as interim U.S. Attorney and then appointed U.S. Attorney in 2017.
