Mickey Weber is a trial lawyer who has been practicing law in southern Indiana since 2007.  His practice has covered a wide variety of legal issues, from personal injury and civil rights to family law, municipal law and criminal defense.  Mickey has represented clients in over thirty jury trials in the course of his career.  Those trials, whether civil or criminal in nature, reflect a deep commitment to each of Mickey’s clients to champion their interests and to stand up against injustice in any form it may take.

 Background

From the time of his admission to practice law until 2021, Mickey operated a private legal practice in Jeffersonville, Indiana.  This practice began as a partnership with his father, Hon. Joseph P. Weber, until his father became Judge of the Clark Circuit Court No. 3. 

Highlights from his time in private practice include conducting hundreds of bench trials and contested hearings in domestic relations and custody matters, as well as a number jury trials in both civil matters such as wrongful death and fraud, as well as criminal matters ranging from misdemeanor battery to attempted murder.

Mickey also has extensive experience in the field of elections law, having conducted and defended numerous election recounts and candidate challenges. 

From 2011 through 2014, Mickey served as the Judge of the Clarksville Town Court.  In this position, Mickey presided over cases in which individuals in Clarksville were charged with criminal misdemeanors and other violations of Indiana law or local ordinance.

 Mickey served as attorney for the Common Council of Jeffersonville, Indiana from 2010 to 2012 and City Attorney for the City of Charlestown, Indiana from 2020 through 2021.

In 2021, Mickey was selected as the Chief Public Defender for Clark County, Indiana and served in that position until 2025.  In his role as Chief Public Defender, Mickey was responsible for management and supervision of the Clark County Public Defender’s Office, which employs and/or contracts with 12-20 attorneys to provide legal representation to indigent individuals charged with criminal offenses.  During his time in this position, Mickey litigated extensively in addition to his managerial responsibilities.  During his tenure as Chief, Mickey acted as lead counsel in twelve jury trials, primarily involving serious felony allegations including murder, attempted murder, rape, and burglary.

Mickey joined Schad Law in 2025 and is excited to use his broad legal experience and love of trial advocacy for the benefit of his clients.

Mickey was born and raised in Clarksville, Indiana, where he lives with his wife, Teala Happ, their daughter, Sylvia, and Sylvia’s best friend, Lupin the super-mutt.  They enjoy outdoor activities as a family, because Teala says so, and Mickey enjoys reading and playing music, when he can get away with it.
