Criminal Defense 30%

I have always enjoyed criminal defense, and I am now extremely fortunate to be mentored by some expert criminal defense attorneys. I am currently contracted with the State Public Defender's Office. I also handle many private criminal defense matters. Criminal defense and Immigration are always matters that go hand in hand for my non-US Citizen clients. It is indispensable that I am an expert in both. I provide straightforward counseling and zealous representation.

Immigration 30%

The law of immigration requires specialized knowledge about the rules and regulations of the US Citizenship and Immigration Services and Immigration Courts. I am fortunate to have married my lovely Chinese wife, Yangyidi Ye. I have maneuvered through USCIS processes personally. I understand how important and emotional those processes can be. Clients will appreciate how I handle these delicate matters affecting their lives, the lives of their family members, and the lives of their colleagues.

Family 25%

I treat every interaction with others as an opportunity to build trust. This means that I listen and I counsel before ever getting into the legal process. I am interested in your well-being when we first meet, throughout the court process, and as you move forward with your life. You will feel that you absolutely made the best choice possible for an attorney.

Juvenile Law 15%

I am contracted with the State Public Defender's Office to handle juvenile cases. In addition, I previously was an Court Intern at the Madison County Juvenile Drug Court in Canton, MS. There I handled counseling of juveniles through legal matters as well as drug abuse. Now, in Iowa, I represent parents and children in CINA cases as well as Juvenile delinquency cases.
