Client Testimonials

Lori Brandau is, without question, the most prepared, knowledgeable, and fair defense counsel I have ever worked with. She is truly in a class of her own. Her ability to discuss each claim with a deep understanding of Iowa law, while also fully grasping the unique facts and circumstances of every individual case, is both impressive and rare. Lori commands respect on all sides of the table, among defense counsel and plaintiff attorneys alike, and that level of professional regard speaks volumes about her integrity and skill. In my experience, her abilities are unmatched. There is no other defense attorney I would choose or trust in her place. I rely on her judgment completely and trust her to do the right thing without hesitation. She has my highest recommendation, earned through experience, trust, and consistently exceptional work.
