I have 15 years of experience as a practicing attorney, focusing primarily on litigation and trial work. I've represented private individuals, small businesses, and large civic stakeholders. I've worked in private practice and for the Iowa Attorney General's Office. At the Attorney General's Office, I was a trial attorney for the Special Litigation and Regents divisions, and was specially assigned to represent Iowa State University in its litigated matters. Collectively, I've successfully litigated over $100,000,000 in claims ranging from will contests and employment discrimination, to torts and negligence, and contract and investment loss. My litigation experience includes chairing numerous jury and bench trials, practicing at the state, federal, and administrative levels, and managing matters from complaint to verdict. I opened Smith Law Firm PLC so that I could build a firm focused solely on providing exceptional service and working solutions to individuals and businesses. When you need to make significant decisions about the future of your life and work, you need an experienced advocate, who will bring focus and clarity to finding your legal path forward.
