We have effectively represented thousands of clients and have a record of dismissals, as well as reducing charges and sentences. Our results are driven by caring about our clients' best interests and by working hard to achieve the best outcome.
Appeals and requests for post-conviction relief both occur after a conviction. At Branstad & Olson, we are ready to address your concerns about a prior trial or legal proceeding. Our Des Moines appeal attorneys are often able to attack unfair judgments and sentences, with the goal of reversing the conviction completely, or reducing time in prison.
In Iowa, assault can be charged as a misdemeanor or a felony, which means that a court can impose severe penalties upon a conviction. It also means that if you're found guilty, you could feel the effects for the rest of your life. Unless you take specific action to have an eligible assault charge or conviction removed, the mark will remain on your record forever.
In Iowa, criminal mischief is a felony or misdemeanor offense carrying heavy penalties. If you have been accused, a conviction could turn your life upside down, as you face not only incarceration and/or fines but also a criminal record that could place various limitations on you. Just because you are facing charges does not mean you are guilty of the alleged conduct.

Christy Brandstad is by far an intellectual mind in every presdece of the meaning of Laws and Interpretation of therin of suchlike defense in any legal proportionality . She is far more competent than Al Parish law firm and her past accomplishments are far superceded any precedent of relevance.If I were a betting Man she make an outstanding Supreme Court Justice our The First Republican Presidess For These Here United States of America.. constitutionally speaking she's in a realm of her own as is her Uncle Embassador Brandstad.Id take a bullet for either one or their family no joke I feel that

Currently I wasn’t able to hire them on as our attorneys (not due to them, but to my boyfriends case that happened long ago) but Nathan did a quick consultation with me over the phone and put my heart and mind at ease. He was very professional, empathic and personable. I may be working with them in the future for something else, but if not I would absolutely recommend Nathan and this firm to anyone! Thank you so much for your help and knowledge!
