I was raised in rural Southern Iowa, am proud to be an Iowan, and hold sacred the values I was taught growing up. My desire to live by those values led me to start my own practice in 2005. I have endeavored to incorporate into my law practice the values I was taught growing up and in my dealings with clients. I work hard for my clients, and above all, endeavor to build trusting relationships with them. I believe that my clients return to me not only because they can trust that I will work to achieve the best result for them, but also because they can rely on me to care about them and their situation. With my broad range of legal experience, I can help people with many different issues, and if I cannot help you, I will let you know right away. I am building a group of clients who know they can trust me to do the right thing for them in their lives. If you expect that from your attorney, you can be assured that I will be working to earn that trust, while working toward the best possible result for you.
