Takes the unknown of the process and makes it easy for you to understand, goes above and beyond what is expected! Amanda has been a lifesaver! Would not be where I am today if it wasn't for her and the passion she has for what she does!

Amanda Van Whye is hands down the best attorney I have ever worked with! From the moment I hired her, she went above and beyond in every possible way. She was always available, answering my questions almost instantly, and she explained everything in a way that made sense, making a complicated process so much easier. I had wasted over a year and thousands of dollars on another attorney who got me nowhere. Then I hired Amanda, and within just a few short months, she got everything handled, resolved, and finalized. Her dedication, hard work, and ability to get things done are truly unmatched. If you need a divorce attorney, do yourself a favor and hire Amanda Van Whye. She is simply incredible. I can’t thank her enough for everything she did for me!

Amanda is by far one of the best attorneys I've ever worked with. She is highly organized, extremely detailed, and very knowledgeable. She advocates for her clients and is a force to be reckoned with. It us clear she cares about her clients.

Hiring an attorney can be a stressful experience. Finding one you can trust can be worse. I hired Van Wyhe law firm based on reviews and 4-5 star ratings. Amanda cares about her clients and not just worried about filling her pockets like most attorneys are. If you want honesty and integrity hire Amanda Van Whye.

Hiring an attorney is a daunting task. I was referred to Van Wyhe Law Firm & Mediation Center by a friend. I cant thank these ladies enough for the gentle but firm guidance in going through my divorce process. It's an emotional process and they were the voice of reason I needed to hear when making these difficult decisions. I would not hesitate to recommend Miranda and Amanda.

Five stars is not enough to give Amanda and Miranda! Their knowledge, responsiveness, and compassion made this process as easy as it can be going through such a life changing event. At the end of the day i made the right decision in all aspects but most importantly i found Amanda and she made sure i was taken care of as well as the children. Highly recommend.

Was referred to the Van Wyhe law firm for my custody case and couldn't be happier with their team. They're always there when I need them, they explain everything and tell me what I need to do or get and how... Amanda and Miranda are the perfect team. We have our day 2 the end of this month and I feel confident with what the results will be but regardless of how it turns out I know that they did their best and if I ever need a lawyer again, This will be my go to team and I'd recommend them to anyone in the area. They're honest and truly worth every penny.

Amanda is the best lawyer and with Miranda, her para legal, they are a perfect team! I would hire them again without any hesitation. They are amazing!! We were going through a messy custody battle and she kept us informed every step of the way. Our questions and emails were always answered timely and they walked us through how to do everything and what we should expect. They never acted like I was bugging them when I needed clarification (a lot) and always spoke with a smile. Our trial took a long time due to the other party but they stayed on top of everything the whole time and didn't let the other lawyer or party push us around. They also double checked all our paperwork and documents so everything was always kept professional and appropriate for court. (Can't say the same for the other lawyer, who forgot to redact a few things or file with proper security.) If you're in the area, do your research and then come back and hire these 2. You won't be disappointed!

Amanda and Miranda could not have been better for me. They were extremely knowledgeable and guided me every step of the way. Kept me updated, informed, and on schedule through multiple hearings, a trial, and won an Iowa Supreme Court of appeals case for me.
