Criminal Defense & Juvenile Law
in Nevada, Iowa

People tend to associate law with conflict, but in truth, it’s just the opposite — practicing law is all about taking an existing problem and finding a way to minimize any negative impact it could have on the rest of your life. So, rather than getting wrapped up in the concept of “winning” or “losing,” let’s focus on what’s going to be the most beneficial for you specifically.

It all starts with clear communication

Before we can solve your legal issue, you and I will need to get on the same page. Fortunately for you, I happen to be a very invested listener. I genuinely want to understand your perspective and expectations so that I can offer the best service and most effective solutions possible. So, when we meet to discuss your case, know that you'll have the floor. My role is to listen, inform, and support any decisions you make regarding your case.

I’ll explain what to expect as we proceed

Now, I may be the legal professional in this relationship, but you’re the one who needs to feel in control of your situation. That’s why, instead of simply taking over and leaving you to wonder what’s going on, I’ll keep you informed and prepared every step of the way. For instance, if you’re facing a criminal charge, I’ll explain what to expect from the prosecution, how to prepare for court proceedings, and what you can do to improve your chances of success.

We’ll pursue your best options

Every case (whether criminal, juvenile, or family-related) is unique, which means we need to be flexible in our approach. For my part, I will stand ready to mediate, litigate, and pursue different combinations of negotiation tactics in order to help you reach the ideal solution for your situation.
