Craig, Kelley, and Faultless LLC

What Craig, Kelley, and Faultless LLC does

Craig, Kelley & Faultless LLC is a personal injury law firm headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, founded in 1993 by David W. Craig, William J. Kelley II, and Scott A. Faultless. The firm represents individual plaintiffs in semi-truck and commercial vehicle accident cases, car and motorcycle accidents, wrongful death claims, catastrophic injuries, traumatic brain injuries, and premises liability matters, with a stated emphasis on truck accident litigation. It also offers workers' compensation representation through Of Counsel attorney Krysten M. LeFavour.

The firm operates from seven office locations spanning Indiana (Indianapolis, Avon, Batesville, Richmond, Southside Indianapolis, Evansville) and Missouri (St. Louis), and runs a content marketing platform including the After the Crash Podcast (86+ episodes), a video library, blog, resource center, and free downloadable ebooks designed to drive inbound client leads. Its underlying technology is a standard digital intake and case management stack — there is no proprietary AI/ML capability, API, or SDK referenced in the data.

The business model is contingency-fee representation: clients pay no upfront fees and the firm is compensated only on successful recovery, typically through a percentage of settlements or verdicts. The firm states it has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars cumulatively across its 30+ year history. Client acquisition runs through a sales-led motion combining direct phone intake (toll-free 24/7), online contact forms, localized SEO across 30+ Indiana cities, social media, referrals, and the firm's podcast and content library. The firm is privately held by its three founding partners with no external institutional investors or parent company.
