I was facing two years in jail and fines for a serious assault that landed someone in the hospital for 2 days. Sam, got my sentenced knocked down to the same sentence as other people in my domestic abuser progam class had, that just got in verbal arguements, which was no jail and one year probation ...and a $350 fine. I also witnessed Sam in intense negotiations with prosecutors that didn't want to deal and he got the best possible out come and in my opinion was under payed for his services compared to the other lawyers I have been involved with in the last 12 months. Sam is very passionate about his work and you will not find someone better in his finite area of legal expertise.

Sam Rouse served as my criminal defense attorney after being arrested for Class D Felony-Conspiracy to Deliver a Controlled Substance. I was arrested in Los Angeles, CA. Having never been arrested the LA County Jail was more than horrifying. Under the circumstances I had no choice but to wait for ...expungement back to Iowa, a process that usually takes up to 60 day. With no option for bail I became psychologically mortified. Sam set a special bail hearing in Iowa so that I could post bail in LA. After about 8 days I was able to post bail. He not only provided me with legal council, but personal advice as well. I felt completely at ease every-time I met with Sam. I was awarded with a deferred judgement thanks to Sam's expertise. I could not be more grateful for all his hard work. If you are looking for a good lawyer I would recommend his services.
