I was born March 14, 1960 in Council Bluffs and am a fourth generation member of the Peters Law Firm in Council Bluffs. I began working full time for the firm in 1983 as a law clerk, joined as an associate in 1985, joined the firm as a partner in 1990 and have worked here continuously ever since.

Don't ask too many questions! Unprofessional
I went to Jake Peters for help with my workers compensation case, and he seemed nice at first (when you're thinking of hiring) but after I hired him he didn't keep in touch with me about my case and didn't call set up meetings after about 2 months I called to set up a meeting.

I've never responded to a review so this is a first for me. I just want everyone to understand that this is an Iowa workers' compensation case I investigated and turned down. He didn't have a case and I told him so and gave him back his file and charged him nothing. Apparently that made him mad and he left this nasty note for the world to see. I'm too honest perhaps. If I can't win your case ( which is what every client expects ) or get you the outcome that you think you deserve, I'm going to look you in the eye and tell you so. That's what I did here. No regrets. Jake
