Biography:

My practice is made up of Criminal Defense and Family Law, also including Appellate work in both areas.  I am licensed in State and Federal Courts in Iowa.  I am honored to represent individuals in Divorce, Child Custody and all manner of criminal cases.  What is most rewarding to me is the opportunity to meet with a potential client, assess their case and their desires in the case, explain the process, and then begin working together.  The attorney client relationship is very important and is part experience part understanding and part fit.  

 

In every consultation I want one thing, for the person to hire the very best attorney they can for their case, whether that is me or someone else.   After the consultation the decision to choose to hire is up to you and I am ready to start working as soon as you are.  We are blessed to have an amazing staff including our Office Manager, Law Clerk, Legal Assistants and Paralegals. Representation at the Firm is provided through many hands working together towards our common goal.
