As I'm currently looking and not having much luck I might add. We need a sticky for lawyers that work with NFA trusts in Indiana.
Well after using the search function I found this thread that went over the topic.

Thanks for volunteering to put the list together! As soon as you're done, we'll sticky it.
So what's so hard about making a sticky that simply helps others locate a lawyer that knows what we're looking to do and can help?
I kind of thought this was one of the things this site was for. Hoosier gun owners helping other hoosier gun owners.
not one so far can answer this.
^^^^^^ This.It may still be a little early in the game for this, but do you have a ballpark figure for the cost Lex? I'm taking very general, I have no idea how much time goes into a trust of any sort, or how much a normal trust would cost.
I'll just throw this out there:
I've been doing trusts for over a decade and I have done a handful of "NFA" trusts.
That is an interesting point, but strikes me as odd. Most things attorneys draft aren't ever litigated. And an NFA trust like this hasn't specifically been litigated in Indiana, or anywhere else as far as I can tell. In fact, part of the reason for using a trust is to technically avoid court when someone dies anyway.
Let me put it a different way. You are more likely to hear about the first one that DOESN'T work than any that "do" work. That guntrustlawyer blog had a couple links to cases that the ATF decided someone's computer-generated trust didn't pass muster, but that's all I could find. And that's different.
It seems to me the ATF lawyers are going to be unwilling to go after an attorney-drafted trust because the ATF guys don't likely know much about trusts anyway.
