Lawyers Serving Des Moines and Throughout Iowa

Dedicated Criminal Defense and Family Law Representation

If you face criminal charges or divorce, you may worry about your future. At the law firm of Kragnes & Associates in Des Moines, Iowa, we understand the challenges you face and will give your case the personal attention it needs.

Aggressive Criminal Defense

The long-term effects of a criminal conviction can be devastating. It can affect every aspect of your life from your employment to your family.

Too often, prosecutors only see the crime that a person is charged with committing such as drunk driving, drug possession or a white-collar offense such as embezzlement. As your lawyers, we will make sure they see the person accused of the crime as well.

We devote a significant amount of time getting to know our clients, so we can present their personal story to the court. Often there are reasons why a court should consider counseling rather than a conviction, or probation rather than jail. Our lawyers will bring those factors forward for the court to consider.

Compassionate Family Law Representation

The approach you take to your divorce can affect your future in many ways. If you have children, being overly aggressive can damage your family relationships and make it harder for you and your spouse to cooperate on parenting issues. It can also add to your legal costs.

Since many issues such as child support and property division are determined by law, our lawyers will focus on protecting your rights and helping you move on with your life. We won't create issues where none need to exist.

You Deserve Personal Attention

We know that your situation is unique. Whether you contact us for help on a child custody case or to defend you from OWI charges, our attorneys will assess your needs and goals, and develop a strategy that is right for you.

Our goal is to put you in the best possible position at the conclusion of your case. Our lawyers will keep you informed and involved with your case along the way.
