Aggressive Personal Injury and Medical Malpractice Advocacy

A catastrophic accident can throw your entire life into chaos, leaving you with physical trauma, emotional distress, and mounting medical bills. Insurance adjusters are quick to offer low settlements to protect corporate profits. To ensure you receive full and fair compensation, it is vital to hire a personal injury lawyer with a proven track record. We aggressively pursue claims against negligent parties in state and federal courts, handling critical matters such as: car and motor vehicle collisions, trucking crashes involving complex federal trucking regulations, slip and fall incidents due to negligent property maintenance, and medical malpractice. Our team works meticulously to build compelling cases for surgical errors, failure to diagnose, and medication mistakes. For all injury and accident claims, we work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no fees unless we win your case.

Trusted Workers' Compensation and Employment Law Support

When an accident happens on the job, workers' compensation is supposed to be a straightforward lifeline. Unfortunately, navigating the application and appeal process under Iowa law can be exceptionally challenging. Our dedicated workers' compensation attorneys understand how to overcome delayed claims, medical provider disputes, and partial payment denials to secure your rightful benefits. We also champion workers in the areas of employment law, defending individuals against workplace discrimination, wrongful termination, sexual harassment, hostile work environments, and wage and hour disputes. We work to level the playing field for employees.

Strategic Estate Planning, Probate, and Business Services

Transitioning assets to the next generation and protecting your commercial investments are priorities that require meticulous planning. If you want to insulate your wealth and streamline probate proceedings, our estate planning team drafts custom wills, revocable living trusts, powers of attorney, and healthcare directives. For local entrepreneurs and established corporate entities, we offer comprehensive business law support, guiding businesses from initial entity formation and contract negotiations through high-stakes commercial litigation and real estate transactions.
