Ciyou & Associates, P.C.

What Ciyou & Associates, P.C. does

Ciyou & Associates, P.C. is a boutique family law firm founded in 2022 and headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, with a secondary appointment-only office in Fishers. The firm employs approximately five people in a professional services capacity — four attorneys (led by Attorney & Shareholder Bryan Ciyou) and a paralegal/business operations support team — and operates exclusively within the State of Indiana, declining to solicit clients in jurisdictions where it is not licensed. Its three core practice areas are Family Law (high-asset divorce, property division, spousal support, pre/post-nuptial agreements, protective orders), Child Custody (high-conflict custody, interstate and international matters, Hague Convention cases, modification, father's rights), and Appellate Practice (representation before the Indiana Court of Appeals, Indiana Supreme Court, the federal Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals, and certiorari filings at the U.S. Supreme Court).

The firm does not operate a proprietary technology platform. Case work is supported by standard legal practice management tools and commercial legal research databases. Customer-facing technology is limited to a content-marketing website (ciyoulaw.com) with 69+ pages of educational blog content covering family law topics, social media profiles on Facebook, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, and Instagram, and an online "Pay Now" capability for client billing. Distribution is direct-to-consumer: clients reach the firm via phone ((317) 210-2000), email ([email protected]), or website contact forms, and pay a $250 initial consultation fee.

The revenue model is pure professional services. The firm charges hourly or flat attorney fees for legal representation across its practice areas, augmented by a one-time $250 consultation fee that doubles as a lead qualification mechanism. There are no subscription products, recurring contracts, or technology licensing revenue streams. The customer base is entirely individual consumers and families — segmented primarily by case type (high-net-worth marital estates, high-conflict custody, appellate matters) and secondarily by language preference (bilingual English/Spanish representation). No institutional or corporate clients are referenced, and no recurring revenue, SaaS metrics, or contract structures apply.
