"Tom Farnsworth is a careful and intelligent attorney who cares about his clients and is passionate about obtaining fair, just and reasonable results. In my early career I considered Tom a mentor, but only after I became an OWI prosector myself did I recognize the true depth and breadth of his talents. I unhesitatingly recommend Tom to those in need of someone they can trust to obtain the best result possible in the circumstances."

"Farnsworth is far and away the best attorney around Iowa City and Cedar Rapids. He is very well respected by the Judges, fellow lawyers, and the District Attorneys. He knows his stuff and fights hard for his clients. You would be lucky to have him as your lawyer. My go to guy in all of Iowa."

"I count Tom among a select few attorneys in the state to whom I would refer a friend or family member accused of OWI for representation. These cases demand zealous advocacy across a range of disciplines - search and seizure, field sobriety and chemical testing. I know Tom to be an expert in these areas. I know he gets results. Every referral I make to him comes back and thanks me for the connection. That says so much about him. If you or anyone you care about is accused of OWI or any other criminal matter in the Cedar Rapids and Iowa City areas, then you would be hard pressed to find a better attorney. I would recommend him without hesitation."

I highly recommend Tom Farnsworth and would not hesitate to refer a friend or a family member to him."

"I endorse this lawyer. I have been practicing criminal defense law for 35 years. I became acquainted with Tom through a criminal defense lawyer association and served on a board with him. Developing out of that relationship we began to refer clients to each other as we practice about 125 miles apart. I am very careful about referring clients to other attorneys and rarely do so but I do not hesitate to refer to Tom. I have gotten nothing but glowing reports back from those that I have referred to him. I rely on him for his advise and experience with criminal defense issues I encounter. He gets to the point on legal issues, has a great sense of humor and a dedicated family person. Without reservation, I recommend Tom."
