About Justin D Riem

Unlike many of my law school peers, I didn’t always know I wanted to be a lawyer. While attending high school in Minnesota, I was a bit of an entrepreneur, starting and running my own car detailing and lawn care businesses. When I went back to my home state of Wisconsin to start my undergraduate studies at UW-Madison, I followed in my brother’s footsteps and initially sought an engineering degree. After a year and a half of studying, however, I realized my true passions lied with the elective courses I took in psychology and social sciences; the classes that challenged me to see the world through different lenses and think creatively to find solutions to difficult problems. I immediately changed my major, pursued a career in the law, and never looked back.I represent my clients ethically, analytically, and empathetically. I understand when meeting a prospective client, it is often during the worst moments of his or her life, and I don’t take that lightly. Trials are rarely the desired answer, but in some cases, they are the only appropriate solution. That is why I focused my attention both during and after law school on litigation, client counseling, and negotiation, to ensure I had the tools necessary to best help my clients achieve their goals. When I moved to Iowa with my wife and our children in 2016, I joined a local general practice firm and continued to cultivate my skills in civil litigation and negotiation, representing clients in a variety of matters, from contempt proceedings to breaches of corporate fiduciary duty claims.My extensive experience in a wide array of legal areas, together with my practical, real-world knowledge and creative approach, gives my clients the trust that their matters are skillfully handled by a dedicated attorney who not only understands their legal needs, but has their best interests in mind. I know what it means to work hard for the most important things in your life. I feel quite privileged to use my passion for and knowledge of the law to help local Iowans navigate the confusing, emotionally charged, and often-adversarial legal system to get the justice they want and deserve.

I had an excellent experience working with Justin. He assisted me with both my child custody and contempt cases. His knowledge, responsiveness, and guidance made a stressful situation much more manageable. He was upfront and honest, communicated clearly, provided practical expectations, and made me feel supported. He consistently stayed on top of important deadlines, kept me informed, and was invested in achieving the best outcome for my family. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of quality legal representation.

Justin handled my divorce/custody case for me just recently. I came to him terrified, uneducated, and worst, the fear of not being with my children. Justin had a way of making me feel at ease, even considering the situation. He worked efficiently and in a timely manner to make sure that my case was solid. When our court date neared, Justin reached out to try one last mediation to avoid trial. My case went down to the last second. He pushed and fought for what he knew I wanted, and what ss right. In the end, it was clear what was most important to my ex. We settled out of court, and I whole heartedly believe I won. Of course, I dont believe anyone in these situations win, but my children are my life, and Justin knew that. He did everything he could to make sure the kids remained in the safest, most reliable hands that they could be. Justin gave me my life back. Even thought it is a much different life, I couldn't be any happier! I would 100% recommend Justin over and over!

I had a great experience with Justin and Samantha! They were both extremely transparent and helped answer any questions I had. They also were very understanding of the things going on in my case and helped to ensure the best possible outcome. I couldn't be happier with their service and if anyone else needs a good family lawyer I would more than recommend Justin and his team!

I had a very complicated situation and Justin was amazing throughout the entire process. He made sure that I understood all of my options, and always answered my questions quickly, even outside of his normal hours. I hope I don’t ever need his services again, but if I do, I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again.
