About Martin A.

Martin A. McCloskey studied regulation at Western Michigan University Cooley Law School, the place he earned his J.D. His legal background followed earlier service in the United States Air Force, where he finished fundamental army education as an honor graduate.

McCloskey’s career is a sequence of public service roles. He served within the Air Force and later spent years as an officer with the Elkhart Police Department. Those years in uniform formed his understanding of law enforcement and nearby authorities. He moved from policing into elected office as an Elkhart County Commissioner, a position that gave him experience in public administration and local coverage.

He entered personal practice in 2006, founding McCloskey Law Office and listing his title as Lawyer & Counselor at Law. Over the years he has maintained a presence within the nearby legal network thru bar and association memberships. He belongs to the Indiana State Bar Association (2006–present), the Elkhart City Bar Association, the St. Joseph County Bar Association, the Indiana Trial Lawyers Association and the Christian Legal Society. Those memberships mirror ongoing ties to both statewide and local expert circles.

On the admission side, McCloskey is licensed to practice in Indiana and is licensed to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana and the United States District Court for the Northern District of Indiana. His admissions allow him to handle things in state judiciary and in the federal trial courts that take a seat in Indiana.

His background crosses public protection, elected office and private law practice. That mixture indicates in how he strategies legal work: practical, knowledgeable by time in uniform and in county authorities. He has handled a range of matters at his office since setting up it in 2006, drawing on earlier experience rather than counting on outside credentials alone.

Colleagues and clients note his lengthy-running ties to Elkhart and the area, reflected in his continued exercise in nearby bar teams and civic institutions. He keeps a workplace in Elkhart thru which he carries out his legal work.

He practices from McCloskey Law Office, taking on cases in Indiana and within the Southern and Northern Districts of Indiana.
