I am a founding and managing partner of Gourley Rehkemper, & Lindholm, PLC, also known as GRL Law. I work with some of the best attorneys and legal professionals in the business and I am proud to say that our firm is one of the best Trial Law firms in Iowa.
I head up the wrongful death and traumatic injury division at the firm. In the last 5 years alone, I have obtained verdicts from Iowa juries totaling just under 5 million dollars. But those cases are not about me. They are about the Iowans who have been permanently and extraordinarily injured and the families who have lost a loved one and then have been lied to, taken advantage of, mistreated, or all three by coporations and their insurance companies. I have had the honor of helping families hold insurance companies, corporations and other wrongdoers accountable for their actions when they have caused the death of, or a life changing injury to folks in Iowa. We have gone up against the big boys; the insurance companies and their big law firms, and we have prevailed. We will continue to fight to do so.
No firm in Iowa investigates deaths and injuries more throughly. No firm handles lawsuits more zealously. No firm gets better results for grieving families. I am proud to say that I am a part of GRL Law, the firm that Iowans turn to when Good People Need GReat Lawyers

This was my first experience using an attorney and I'm pleased that I was recommended to Mr. Gourley.

His best trait is he listens to his client and is open-minded about...

Cory Gourley, integrity, patience and professionalism, only way to discribe this lawyer
My case was a tough, post-divorce custody modification. Hard as it gets and Cory knocked it out of the park. His advice was dead on. I had many concerns along the way in a two year long court process. When things didn't go like we expected or wanted, he always had a plan B, even a plan C. He is wort...
