I can not overstate how pleased I am with the service, knowledge, and professionalism I received from Mike & Sue at Culp Law Office. My case was a unique one, and Mike was there every step of the way to not only handle my questions, but explain where the answer came from, and inform me of where this information fit into the process. His knowledge and experience was essential and I would not have received the result I did without him. He showed compassion and empathy, but was also very straight forward, which I appreciated greatly. I couldn't recommend his services enough.

Mike and his team are absolutely the best! Very personable, always available to answer any questions you have and walks you through step by step! He and Sue deserve 100+ stars! No matter what you need legal assistance with, give him a call!

I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Culp. He was quick to answer questions, and I felt confident in his abilities. Highly recommend! Thank you Mike!

I was represented by Mr Michael Culp. Not only was he available to answer every question i had about my case but was my GUIDE through this complicated, messy and downright confusing iowa legal system. Mr culp and his assistant provided me the resources, documents, and advice that ultimately gave me the best outcome for my case. Legal matters are stressful, no doubt, but if you are willing to make the effort and follow his recomendations, you are in the best of hands with Mr Culp. All i can say is thank you Mr Culp!

Mike was fantastic! He put in every effort to get the best outcome possible and followed through with what he said. Mike really cared about my personal life as much as he did about the case, I didn’t feel like just a client to him but rather a family member. He made himself available at all times, got the answers to me quickly, and kept me involved with the case. If I could give 10 stars I would! Thank you again for giving me the possibility of a future with my family!

I have never had to hire a worker's compensation attorney before, so I really wasn't sure where to go or who to pick. I just knew that I wanted someone with a lot of experience and not a "TV" attorney. After reading all of Pat's previous client reviews, I felt like he was the one to turn to. I will never be the same as I was before my injury, but Pat has been on my side since the beginning representing me and my best interest. Very happy I chose Pat to represent me and I would highly recommend him to anyone. Thanks Pat for all your hard work!

Pat. Is very professional responsible answer any question any email sending to Pat it is not waiting next day Pat applying same day even after work hours I am so lucky to having Pat as my representative working on my case I don't expect my case will go very well at all when Pat let me know how my case. go I was positive so surprised and happy if I could give 10 Stars I will and I have great great experience I will recommend my friend my family anyone asked me where to go go to Carpenter Law Firm its very important trust and i have. Thank you again Pat !!

Pat was always available to work with. Pat kept us informed, he was patient with things we did not understand and went above and beyond to help us during a difficult time. Pat is very knowledgeable and treated us with respect. We would recommend him to anyone!

Pat handled my claim effectively and efficiently. He got right down to it and was able to resolve it in a matter of weeks. Up front and honest, Pat responded within minutes every time I ask him anything. If you want something done Pats law firm starts working immediately and doesnt waste any time.

Very professional law firm. Did a very good work with my case. Highly recommended.

I worked with Chad and he was amazing. He is honest, thorough, very knowledgeable and straight to the point. He stayed in constant contact with me, kept me updated and always consulted with me before making a decision. It was always in my best interest and I couldn't be more grateful. I'm glad i found this office. He did win my case for me. It was certainly a privilege to work with such professional people. You won't regret it!

Chad Knapp was very professional and always responded quickly with any updates or at least checked in when there weren't any yet. He was the only person willing to review and handle my case due to it being a slip and fall, every lawyer I spoke with previous to him stated that it would not be a case worth trying to sue over and that no other lawyer would touch it. Thanks to Chad Knapp we were able to proceed with my case and were able to get everything settled outside of court. I would absolutely use Chad again if the need were to ever arise. Lisa Archuleta

I highly recommend this Law Firm. They are very professional. They listened to what I had to say and gave me feed back every step of the way. They are very knowledgeable and passionate about what they do. I believe they truly care about their clients!

Chad Knapp was the absolute best! He handled my case with care and made sure to work to get everything I needed done, accurately and quickly even with COVID going on. I would highly recommend him!

I was involved in a wreck in 2019. I was referred to LaMarca and worked with James, Tyler and Jamie. They were awesome to work with. Jamie was great working with when calling the office. You could hear the smile on her face. Tyler was there to calm my nerves when things seemed to be going slow. When it came time to settle James took the time to explain all of my options and what would happen with whatever decision we made. My wife and I highly recommend LaMarca Law.

My husband was injured at work and this law firm worked feverishly to help us out. They are excellent people to work with all the way from the receptionist to the top of the chain. Steve , Jim and Lori are the GREATEST. I would recommend this law firm to everyone!!!!!!! They deserves more than 5 stars!!!!!

Waited 3 years on my husband case for him to get barely nothing. My husband was injured and unable to work and the attorney simply didnt fight for us. He constantly got us confused with other cases, we had to keep providing documents we already had, and meeting with us on the weekends to charge us extra money. My best advice is to stay way from this firm because case turned from winning 1 million dollars to only 20,000 in which we owe the lawyer 33%. Waste of time for 3 years of our lives. If the settlement amount was that low then our case should have been settled 2 years ago instead of stretching the case over time. STAY AWAY!

Still going through my case but I have nothing but good remarks to say so far

Never go through them I repeat don’t go though Steve. Imessed my whole case up by going through them!!I had a real strong one I told him the amount I wanted and he he ask for a quarter of it. The worst law firm in Iowa. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. I’m 22 years old and I sued my school for something that happened to me when I was fifteen and I promise you it was worth way more then what Steve asked for. They are Absolute Liars and I couldn’t even do anything about it because he said it in front of the Jury

My grandmother is 66 years old. SEVEN YEARS ago, she fell and hurt herself at work so bad she has not been the same since. I remember a spunky fiery lady who could take on the world. Now shes a shell of that woman. Shes been trying and working so hard to not be in pain anymore. She tried getting what she deserves with the help of you guys. And you guys didnt do jack. Shes unable to work the rest of her life. She has my 3 younger siblings to tale care of and you guys just barely doubled her original offer of $27,000. You guys have taken more money and caused more grief for her that everyday she wishes she would have just done it herself. The lawyer my grandmother had acted like he didnt know what he was doing. Or like he was just trying to make a paycheck. If i could give negative stars i would for what you did to one of the kindest sweetest old ladies just needing some help. You guys dragged her through hell and seem very unapologetic for it. I wonder how you guys can sleep at night.

Competent without being impersonal. I know Don and Nile best. Ask for either of them if you need a job done right.

Don and Nile were very professional but approachable. They educated us about the case and trial process. They kept us informed throughout the process and made us feel like we were working together as a team. We were impressed by their knowledge throughout the trial process because they knew statistics and pertinent numbers without referring to their paperwork. Integrity and truth are important to Beattie Law Firm. They were also well respected by opposing attorneys and the judge. We have recommended them to a friend and would recommend them to anyone in need of legal advice or representation.

Unable for taking my issue to a Judge. Quite busy @current time.

Offered patience, assistance, guidance and legal expertise in an exceptionally kind educational manner.

Beattie Law Firm is by far the BEST in Des Moines. I had a work comp. case and Nile Hicks (my attorney) was able to help get me top dollar for my injury's.
