Grant Christopher Gangestad

My husband and I contacted Grant in August 2018 and asked him to give us legal assistance in authoring our Will. We met with Grant and found both him and his staff very attentive and capable. Grant advised us in ways that we could save money in the future by incorporating elements in our Will that wo...uld eliminate the need to make subsequent, and possibly costly, changes. My husband and I definitely recommend Grant in handling any needs you may have involving estate planning.

My son found himself facing an uphill battle in a child custody matter. After settling for some very unfavorable terms in a divorce settlement, he decided to change attorneys and put his fate in Grant's hands. Mr. Gangstad appeared to view my son's case as a personal challenge and worked relentlessly... for a ruling in his favor. While other attorneys appear to be going through the motions to collect a fee, Grant takes pride in going the extra mile to find a winning strategy. Our son's case was ultimately decided by the Iowa Supreme Court where Grant's knowledge, preparation and strategy clearly outclassed his counterpart and he eventually won the case by unanimous decision. His passion for his work is extremely evident and his attention to detail make him a superior attorney. My son's (and our) future is brighter thanks to his efforts.

I learned of GRL law through doing some research. I met with a colleague of Mr. Gangestad's and later decided to retain him as my representation due to the more affordable price. He began diligently working on my case by finding the facts and areas where we could defend my charges that I was facing. ...Immediately after only a couple days Grant had come up with several things in my case that were mishandled! He consulted with me about going forward with the defense he had come up with and I had no doubt with the confidence he possessed that he would help me until justice was served. To the point of my first court appearance I had yet to meet Grant however he had taken care of my DOT hearing and spared my license already. Once I met him I knew he meant business as he argued my case in Mahaska county court. After the district court failed to suppress evidence on both motions Grant gave me my options and I decided to skip trial and let the judge decide, to no one's surprise I was found guilty due to the nature of the courts decision to not suppress. We had decided that if that happened i would appeal with the Iowa Supreme Court of Appeals. Grant immediately had a plan and worked on the brief for the Appeals Court. The whole time Grant treated me as if I was his number one priority as I'm sure he does with all of his clients! I was surprised with how little I had to do during this process as he took care of virtually everything for me. Grant kept me well informed about changes and options in my case and never left a doubt that he would if nothing else give me 150% effort in helping protect my rights and come up with a favorable result! His young appearance didn't reflect his experience level as he handled himself professionally and seemed to be the point of influence while arguing the facts at my hearings. After 23 months total time Mr. Gangestad won my case with his exposure of the stop being unconstitutional under the 4th Amendment. The exact reason he told me we had a very good chance of winning with over 20 months ago. He had the strategy from the get go it just took a competent judge to interpret the law that he was trying to protect and defend! I would recommend Grant to anyone who wants to have a great representation and unmatched confidence at an affordable cost. Thanks Grant for your tireless effort and the best outcome I could ask for!

I was recently out with a friend after a grueling 16 hour work day. We were both tired. I was driving, so obviously remained sane. We ended up at an establishment last into the evening with friends and closed shop. When we left the establishment, we were followed by town law enforcement, who, long st...ory short, picked me up. I called for reinforcement as I was not sure what to do. As it turns out, this particular weekend was a "sting weekend" and they were picking up large amounts of people for various reasons. I ended up on the short end of the stick as far as the process is concerned, and there were flaws in the manner in which I and my situation were handled. Grant Gangestad had been recommended by a family friend previously, and he received the call at 2 a.m. Grant was prompt, courteous, on target, readily available, and on spot %100 of the time. He knew how to "play the game," and my interests were served well. What started out as an injustice as far as how law enforcement proceeded ended up in my case being dismissed with no charges. I am convinced that it was largely due to Grants diligence and expertise. I would highly recommend Grant and/or his team for any and all legal defense, esp. for DUI charges. Way to go team Gangestad- job well done, and keep up the good work! Thank-you.

Grant came highly recommended to us from a family member. I first met him a few years ago, and was made aware that he specialized in DUI cases. I committed this fact to memory, thinking..."You never know when you are going to need THAT." Fast forward to present day- we found ourselves in need of repr...esentation for a DUI case. Grant was immediately available at 2 a.m. He hit the ground running. He was courteous, prompt, diligent, knew his stuff and was spot on. Fast forward to...WE WON THE CASE!!! You will not regret utilizing his services, or the firm he works with. Hats off to Grant and his firm! Job well done! And...thank-you...;-)
