Nate Legue is an award-winning journalist who left a successful career in newspapers to pursue law. He brings the same tenacity, smarts and thirst for truth he developed as an investigative reporter to advocate for his clients every day. After graduating from the University of Iowa College of Law, he worked as a law clerk for the Seventh Judicial District of Iowa.
Breakups, custody battles and intrafamily disputes are some of the hardest personal and legal challenges a person can face. When a relationship or marriage comes to an end, you may have questions about legal rights, care of children and dividing assets and debts. At Legue Law, we can guide you through these difficult times to achieve the best possible outcome for you and your children.
Divorce is one of the most difficult personal challenges you can face. It can be an emotional nightmare, filled with anger, depression, anxiety, and uncertainty. A marriage is a legal arrangement sanctioned and governed by the laws of each state. When a marriage ends, the parties must satisfy the legal requirements to obtain a divorce.
The most difficult portion of any breakup or divorce is determining the care of children. Often a parent may try to use the custody dispute to "get back at" the other parent by interfering with visits, withholding the children and even worse. Although Iowa law is becoming more receptive to equal shared care, sometimes the children are best served by living with one parent the majority of the time.
If you care for children in the state of Iowa, you are entitled to financial support from their other parent. If you are ordered to provide this financial support, you are entitled to have it calculated based on your actual income and ability to pay. Child support applies in every case involving children, regardless of income or lack thereof.

Highly professional, knowledgeable, responsive, down to earth, and truly cares about his clients! Nate knows the law extremely well including its limitations. He is very realistic and follows through on promises he makes. I was extremely anxious and nervous when I first hired him to adjust my child support obligation following a major career change, but he put my mind to ease right at the initial consultation. Will definitely hire him when future needs arise 👍

After I was charged with committing a serious misdemeanor I found myself in Nate's office. I was struggling with serious mental illness and wasn't getting treated as I should have. My mental illness going untreated is what led to me being charged with a crime. Nate spoke with me in a way that allowed me to not have a panic attack and being I had never committed a crime prior he let me know that the process that I was facing I would not have to face it alone. He spent time going over my case and what the prosecution had sent over to him in discovery. He kept in constant communication with me through
