We’re proud to share that Katie Fleschner McMullen, a personal injury attorney at Fleschner, Stark, Tanoos & Newlin, has been named Best Lawyer in the Tribune-Star’s Readers’ Choice 2026 awards. The recognition, selected by Tribune-Star readers, is a reflection of the trust that the Terre Haute community has placed in Katie and in our firm.
The Readers’ Choice award is unique because it comes directly from the people — clients, neighbors, and members of the Terre Haute community who voted to recognize local professionals they trust. For a personal injury firm, that kind of community recognition carries real weight.
“As a personal injury attorney, I meet people when they are going through a rough time. To be able to take a burden off their shoulders so that they can focus on healing is one of the greatest honors of my work.” — Katie Fleschner McMullen
Katie’s connection to personal injury law runs deep. Long before earning her law degree from Michigan State College of Law, she was reviewing medical records and helping prepare cases while still in high school. That early start shaped her understanding of what injured clients and their families actually go through, and it shows in how she approaches her work today.
A graduate of Hanover College, Katie handles claims involving car, truck, motorcycle, bicycle, and pedestrian crashes, as well as dog attacks. Her focus is on helping clients navigate the legal process so they can concentrate on getting better, not on fighting with insurance companies.
Established more than 45 years ago, Fleschner, Stark, Tanoos & Newlin is a Terre Haute-based personal injury firm representing injury victims across Indiana and Illinois. The firm has offices in Terre Haute and Brownsburg, and handles matters involving car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, slip and falls, dog bites, wrongful death, and other injury claims.
