Top 3 Qualities to look for in Your Attorney

Watch Our Video

We believe your attorney should not speak in legalese

Finding an attorney who is a “real person” can be difficult. Many attorneys surround themselves almost exclusively with other attorneys and are accustomed to speaking in ivory tower legalese.  You should be able to connect with your attorney on a personal level, and he or she should speak to you in plain language that you can understand.  You will be working very closely with this person on issues that are very important to you. It is important that he or she be down-to-earth and someone that you connect with.

We believe your attorney should be accessible

The most common complaint that clients have of their attorneys is that the attorney is unreachable, does not communicate with them regularly, or does not promptly return your calls.  Your attorney should reach out to you about your case regularly and respond within 24 hours to calls and e-mails.  An open line of communication between you and your attorney is essential to building trust.

We believe your attorney should be realistic with you about costs and outcomes

Your attorney’s goal should not be to win at all costs.  Rather, it should be to achieve a favorable outcome for you as efficiently as possible.  It is important that your attorney set realistic expectations at the outset as to the costs you should expect, the concerns that the attorney has about the outcome of your case, and the length of time that you should expect your case to take.

Regardless of the nature of your case, we have an experienced attorney who will focus on your individual needs. Our team of attorneys works closely together, bringing each of their different fields of experience to bear in order to optimize our client care.

Proper Clauses in Iowa Franchise Disputes

In light of recent events, many franchises have faced the prospect of triggering force majeure clauses in their legal agreements. A force majeure clause allows for a party to be excused of a legal responsibility due to an unforeseen circumstance, such as a natural disaster or a global pandemic. These clauses are helpful; however, if they are not incorporated into a contract appropriately, proving the legitimacy of a force majeure clause may be difficult and the decision will ultimately be up to the court’s interpretation of the law.

To prevent issues arising from force majeure clauses, look no further than our seasoned team of Iowa franchise litigation attorneys.

Franchise Disputes in Iowa: Contract Disputes

A good business contract is the difference between being covered in the case of something going wrong, and not. That is why our Iowa franchise litigation attorneys find it important to include certain clauses in employee and independent contractor contracts to ensure that all parties are covered in the case of legal issues. The point of these contracts is to protect your business from legal issues, establish clear roles and responsibilities on both sides, outline the services to be performed by the employee or independent contractor, and to create trust and transparency between the business and it’s workers.

Read more on clauses to include in employee and franchise agreements for your Iowa business by our Iowa franchise attorneys.
