Hope Law Firm, P.L.C

I want to thank Adam and Shelby for their kind and wonderful help for the situation that I was going through. Shelby was timely with all email responses and taking my calls. Both Shelby and Adam were very professional in all our discussions. I really appreciate everything you both did. I wish you all the best!

I came to hope law firm during a difficult time in my life, for guidance on getting guardianship of a disabled family member who was struggling on their own. Scott Lyon, and Bronwyn, worked with me and helped me obtain temporary guardianship, which allowed me to seek medical care for my family member at the end of their life. I will forever be thankful I was able to help this family member. As for Scott and Bronwyn, they were very communicative, took time to answer any questions or concerns I had, fairly priced, and trustworthy representation, they also understood the situation as an emergency and squeezed us in for a same day consult. If you are looking for this type of attorney, I couldn't recommend this team more.

Clarissa and Bronwyn were wonderful to work with. They took my case seriously and listened to everything I shared with them. They made it easy to complete and were able to make everything fair and balanced. I appreciate them both so much and recommend Hope Law Firm to anyone in the Des Moines area needing legal representation.

I had the pleasure of working with Shelby Burns and was thoroughly impressed with the level of professionalism and expertise displayed. She handled my case with utmost care, providing clear and prompt communication throughout the process. She was always responsive to my questions and concerns, ensuring I felt supported and informed at every step. Her dedication to achieving the best possible outcome for my situation was truly commendable. Thank you for your outstanding support Shelby!

I won't go into too many details (there's a lot) but my experience with Adam Naset has been terrible. During our initial phone call he was so verbally aggressive with me I almost started to cry. But I was in desperate need of a lawyer. My temporary court hearing was a few days away and he told me on the phone that because it was so close that he would charge me a $5000 retainer fee. I then by myself filed a motion for continuance and got the temporary hearing pushed back by a month. He still charged me the $5000 retainer fee. I provided him with about 22 pages (single spaced) of information for my affidavit and also had text message screenshots to provide support for my affidavit. Then I provided him with my YouTube channel (Ray's Boring Life) and SoundCloud page (Raymond John Lovell) and also I sent him like 15 poems I have written in the last ten years as a way to show him who I was and for him to include some as support for my affidavit to show my emotional depth. My official affidavit was about 3-4 pages long and he ignored every other piece of information I gave him. But I trusted in his decision on what to put in the affidavit and signed it for the court, a big mistake on my part. During the temporary custody hearing Adam did not do a single thing to advocate for me and when the opposing lawyer brought up a questionable assumption that I had a whole section written about in my information Adam had, when given the opportunity to speak Adam had nothing to say to the court. The ruling did not go in my favor and I have Adam to thank for that. After a few angry emails to him Adam decided to withdraw. I have asked for a full refund that I more than likely won't receive. I had a conversation with ChatGPT and provided all the same information as I did to Adam except the text message screenshots (ChatGPT is not able to analyze text through images) and provided all of the affidavits from the respondent that were provided to the court. ChatGPT rated Adam's work on my affidavit a 4/10. Maybe this is just a one off experience, but I trusted him and he threw me under the bus.
