At the Higgins Law Firm, PLLC, we are committed to representing individuals and families throughout Iowa facing challenges of workplace discrimination, harassment, inequality and other matters of employment law. We also assist people confronting criminal charges, accident injuries and other personal injury cases representing plaintiffs.
For many people, experiencing workplace discrimination and inequality starts out as an annoyance, and in many cases, simply becomes an accepted part of the job. Unfortunately, many working Iowans don't realize that they have legal protections against these types of workplace injustices.

Services
At the Higgins Law Firm, PLLC, we treat the people who come into our office as the friends, neighbors, family and fellow Iowans that they are. Although some people measure success in terms of how much money is recovered or whether charges were dismissed, the greatest sense of accomplishment we experience is watching our clients reach a sense of closure and pride in having stood up for themselves.
No matter what you do for a living, your job and the stability and income it provides are important to you and your family. For many Iowans, discrimination, harassment, unsafe working conditions and a variety of other factors result in unlawful termination, injuries and other issues that strip away the sense of pride and security your job provides.
Being charged with a crime can be one of the most stressful situations a person ever experiences. Whether you were pulled over and charged with a traffic violation or face a more severe charge such as a drug-related offense, you stand to lose more than just a few hundred dollars for a fine - a conviction could follow you for life, you could spend significant time and money fighting in court and you could even face years in prison.
If you have suffered injury because of the negligence of another, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries. After suffering from an injury, you are typically in shock. You are focused on recovery. You are likely worried about the pain you are in, the possible recovery time, when you will be able to get back to work, and how you will be able to support your family.
At Higgins Law Firm, PLLC, we are committed to pursuing the best interests of our clients. Whether that means fighting for Iowa workers who have been wronged by their employers, or aggressively defending the rights of individuals and families dealing with the repercussions of a criminal arrest, we devote ourselves to achieving justice on behalf of those without a voice.

Stuart and his legal assistant were such a pleasure to work with. I have an FMLA case still pending but I could not get any assistance from anyone, even legal aid from the state. This firm reviewed my case thoroughly and advised me on the law in preparation for a hearing and now is representing me on appeal. I'm so thankful there are attorneys who care and are willing to assist you when everyone else has abandoned you. Even if I don't win my appeal, I was treated professionally and the communication was excellent AND they were super nice. I highly recommend Stuart Higgins and Associates for your

Stuart is an incredibly informed and empathetic attorney. He connects with clients in a way that makes you understand he cares about your case and you as a person. With a firm understanding of the law and the ability to explain it in layman’s terms, Stuart would be a good choice for anyone in need of representation or counsel. I highly recommend him.

Mr. Higgins represented me against the state. His office was highly responsive during the entire process. Always got back to me the same day. He took the time to understand the case and the arguments. During the trial he was a wolf. The other side had no idea what hit them. Through his well preparedness, he was able to catch the other side in every single discrepancy. He also leveled with me and prepared me for the case.
I would highly recommend Mr. Higgins. He is excellent at what he does.

To start with Candace/paralegal was wonderful. She answered my call without it going to voicemail (that never happens!) and she was very thorough answering my questions. Me Higgins was wonderful. He was prepared and called me immediately. He is very knowledgeable, talks thorough all details and was transparent about what could be done with my case. I’m totally impressed!
