Premier DUI, OWI, and Traffic Offense Defense

An OWI or DUI arrest can jeopardize your driver's license, career, and physical freedom in an instant. Attorney Nina Forcier is a prominent member of the National College for DUI Defense and possesses advanced training in drunk driving defenses. She understands that law enforcement officers frequently make errors during traffic stops, breathalyzer calibrations, and field sobriety tests. Her firm thoroughly scrutinizes the state's evidence, looks for constitutional violations, and fights aggressively to have charges reduced, dismissed, or resolved through alternative sentencing. From administrative driver's license hearings to trial by jury, Forcier Law Office PLLC protects your record and driving privileges.

Comprehensive State Criminal and Juvenile Representation

Beyond OWI defense, Forcier Law Office PLLC provides sophisticated criminal defense for individuals facing a wide array of state charges, including drug offenses, domestic abuse allegations, sex crimes, assault, theft, and juvenile delinquency. Nina Forcier is admitted to practice in Iowa state courts, the United States District Court for the Northern District of Iowa, and the Tribal Court of the Sac and Fox Tribe of the Mississippi in Iowa. Her extensive trial experience ensures that your rights under the United States Constitution are defended with absolute dedication, from your initial arrest and bail hearings through trial or post-conviction relief.

Supportive Family Law, Divorce, and Collaborative Mediation

Family transitions require a delicate touch, but also strong legal boundaries. As a certified family law mediator and trained collaborative divorce professional, Nina Forcier provides families with constructive, non-adversarial pathways to resolve child custody, child support, spousal support, and marital property division. These alternative dispute resolution methods allow families to avoid costly, emotionally damaging public litigation. However, if negotiations break down or safety is threatened, she remains a fierce courtroom advocate, securing protective orders in domestic violence cases and defending parental rights in child welfare hearings.
