"Best Lawyer and Law Firm In Des Moines"

I can't thank David Newkirk enough for his outstanding representation during my OWI case. Never have I been in this type of trouble and was concerned for my employment and future. From the very beginning, he was professional, knowledgeable, and truly committed to achieving the best possible outcome for me. He took the time to figure out the State’s weaknesses case against me and I’m unsure if I’d have the same outcome if he wasn’t on my side. His clear communication and thorough approach helped ease my stress throughout the process. If you’re in need of legal representation, I highly recommend David Newkirk and the entire team at Branstad & Olson. Their dedication to their clients is unmatched, and I am incredibly grateful for their support and expertise.

I am highly satisfied with the consult of both attorneys and they both helped me win my case and I couldnt be forever more grateful and tremdously thankful i am for their hard work and great professionalism in helping me succeed in landing a great deal on my charge. Thank you again to the both of you :)

"Highly Recommend"

Clara was genuinely positive. She took the time to listen to my situation, treated me with respect, and didn’t rush me off the phone. She was responsive and gave me as much guidance and advice as she could, even knowing I might not be able to hire them. That meant a lot. If you’re looking for an attorney who is professional, compassionate, and willing to hear you out, I would definitely recommend reaching out.

"Patient, knowledgeable and relatable"

Clara was extremely patient and thorough with me. I had many, many questions as I'm not familiar with the legal process at all. She made sure to explain things to me in a way I could understand, not just legal terms. She made the legal mess I was going through easier and she was straightforward with me every step of the way. She also has a great team backing her, so she felt confident to double check on a couple things with which another attorney might have had more experience or expertise. She's not just well versed in the law, but she also has a very comprehensive understanding of the nuances of the Polk County court system. Between Clara and her legal assistant, I felt prepared and informed throughout the entire time working with them.
