This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

I couldn't have asked for better representation.

I hired nick after being arrested for dui in gutherie county. At first I considered not getting a lawyer at all because I had signed the implied consent form and figured I would just be paying for a lawyer on top of a fine without diverting any of the penalties. I could not have been more wrong. Nick... was very honest and up front about my case from beginning to end. He didnt pressure me at all to hire him and was honest about his opinion towards my case. Then he pulled a rabbit out of the hat and gave me outstanding representation. He first got my implied consent dropped, then negotiated a reckless driving charge for me in place of a dui. Saving my liscense, cdl and my job. He effectively gave me a second chance at life with his thorough and professional work, because my personal earning potential would have been permanently halved with a conviction. He talked me through the process and explained everything he was doing. And what's more he kept the cost low, very low. I couldn't believe how much he could accomplish with the few hours he billed me for and I in no way whatsoever feel like i over paid. That to me means he cares about honest and quality professionalism, and his clients. All said and done i assumed I would be paying 3 to 5 times as much as I did, and that's including the fine not just his representation. I will be giving out his information to all my friends and family, and he does a lot more then dui cases. Nick is my lawyer, and I couldn't be happier about that.

Outstanding, Committed, Caring

Nicholas Dial is an incredible attorney. He was able to accomplish what we thought would be impossible in helping our young relative get the treatment he needs to deal with his issues while addressing and facing the consequences for his choices. He worked with prosecutors on the case until a reasona...ble solution was reached. He exceeded every expectation we had or could have had. I highly recommend him to everyone.

Father divorced

Nick and I met under circumstances where I suspected my spouse to cooperate per "what we discussed." As you may know, this is a crazy world we live, but thankfully I called Nick right away! He is a strait shooter, super intelligent, and willing to go to bat for what you want the most, and what you'...re wanting to keep from being taken! He did an excellent job of keeping me up to date, and went to battle against a very good law firm. Even when, my now ex-wife, tried to lie about a signed document, Nick was able to speak to the judge in a way that allowed it not to work. If you're looking for an experienced, truthful, and honest attorney structured around integrity, look no further. There will be many times throughout this divorce process where you'll find yourself questioning the methodology, but hold fast, and trust in him. His knowledge is unprecedented and well respected in the court rooms. His prices are competitive with the best firms that you hear from the TV and radio, but I can tell you I wouldn't have had the amazing outcome if it weren't for Nick! Here is the thing, you'll be surprised at how "expensive" any attorney is, but I would spend every penny and then some for Nick's advice! Trust me when I say this. If you're a father don't expect a fair game to be played, you will likely lose a lot already with the way divorce is structured, but don't lose on the things that you can keep! I've had many friends in similar situations where they wish Nick would have been called after hearing the outcome of my case. I know the time with my daughter would have been much less without his services, money can be replaced, time with your loved ones cannot. Trust is a huge thing for me, and during the divorce process, trust is key. Nick Dial truly is the BEST Iowa has to offer!

CSRU review

Nick is extremely detailed and upfront about my specific case. I am very pleased with Nick's professionalism and straight forward answers to my many questions. Although nothing was changed in my case, I would hire Nick again if given the chance.
