Workers' Compensation ● Family Law ● Criminal Law ● Wills, Trusts, Estate Planning & Probate Law ● Personal Injury

Since 1993, the attorneys and staff at the Sawatzke Law Firm have been providing accessible, client-centered legal services to the people of southwest Iowa and northeast Nebraska, in the greater Council Bluffs-Omaha area.

Our law firm presents options for people facing difficult situations. When your case requires you to go to court, we will be standing by you as your advocate in worker's compensation, family law, personal injury, or criminal law cases. When your legal issue can be resolved with Alternate Dispute Resolution, as is often the case with divorce or civil disputes, we can assist with that as well.

The attorneys of the Sawatzke Law Firm are prepared to move your case through to resolution, always with your best interests and needs in mind. We invite you to contact our law office by e-mail or by calling us toll-free at 888-752-8140 to schedule a consultation. We represent clients in the following legal matters:

Workers' Compensation and Personal Injury: Attorney Roger Sawatzke protects the interests of injured workers and people who have suffered injuries in motor vehicle accidents. If you have been injured, you have rights. The attorneys of the Sawatzke Law Firm work hard to ensure you receive any compensation you deserve.

Family Law: Contested and uncontested divorce and property division, child support and spousal support, child custody and visitation, modification of existing court orders, paternity, adoption, guardianship, name changes, prenuptial agreements, and restraining orders in cases of domestic violence.

 Criminal Law: Defense lawyer Helen Savage represents adults and juveniles in criminal court and juvenile court when they face charges for felony or misdemeanor crimes. An experienced criminal trial lawyer, Ms. Savage teaches criminal law at Iowa Community College.

Wills, Trusts, Estate Planning & Probate Law: As with every area of our service, our wills, trusts, estate planning & probate law practice begins with you your goals. What do you and your family wish to accomplish with an estate plan, a will, a trust, a living will, a power of attorney, or another planning document?

Approachable, Accessible, Professional Service

Our staff possesses strong academic credentials, close ties to the community in which we live and work, and a deep commitment to our clients' success. We use state-of the-art technology to provide legal services in a timely manner.

• We return calls promptly. If your attorney is not available, a trained professional is on duty to answer your questions.
• We are accessible. We will talk with people over the phone, so our clients don't have to take a day off work. We will also meet on weekends and evenings, if our clients need that. We make home and hospital visits.
• We speak plain English (and Spanish)—not legalese, so you will understand your options.
• We regularly report on progress in your case.
• We are up-front and ethical about our fees so there are no surprises.

Convenient, accessible service—that is what you can expect from the Sawatzke Law Firm.
