This guy got dollar signs in his eyes and signed the first contract they put in front of him.
But even if he wanted to make sure that his land would be protected, Indiana has a massive shortage of rural lawyers [1]. Much of that shortage is self-inflicted; Indiana is one of the most hostile states toward lawyers that want to practice in multiple states. So rural lawyers just across the border in Michigan, Ohio, Illinois and Kentucky (who deal with the same exact farming issues) don’t even want to bother getting licensed in Indiana.
This attitude has consequences.
