Each car, truck, and motorcycle accident case is different, and we cannot accurately determine what compensation you may be eligible for without first thoroughly reviewing your case. In a typical accident and personal injury case, depending on the circumstances, you may be able to file for compensation relating to medical costs, rehabilitation costs, loss of wages (including future wages), inhibited earning capacity, pain and suffering, punitive damages, and more in the event that the defendant acted with gross negligence.

Hansen Law Offices believes strongly in providing people with the highest quality of legal representation. Any attorney can promise you the moon and stars and give you a false sense of hope and security. At our law office, we provide candid advice so clients have a better understanding of the realities of their case. When we accept a case, we do so with the understanding that it will require a significant time and resource investment on our part and a willingness to provide tireless support for you and your family. We fight hard for clients and seek maximum compensation to help clients recover from lost wages, medical bills, pain and suffering, and future medical and rehabilitative care.

We have over 37 years of experience and offer a free, no-obligation consultation. Call us at (319) 752-5515 and let us fight for you.

Debt consolidation can be very misleading. Many companies offer quick fixes and lower payments for all of your debt problems. However, this is usually not the case, and you will likely pay more in the long run -- extended terms mean extended payments and fees. Don’t fall victim to these untruthful debt consolidation companies. We have seen past clients scammed by debt consolidation companies before they sought our services for bankruptcy. This mistake can be very costly and usually results in thousands of dollars lost. It is very difficult to recover these lost monies, and it is unlikely that a legitimate refund policy exists. Call us at Hansen Law Offices for a free consultation and learn more about the benefits of Chapter 7 bankruptcy at 319-752-5515.

In Iowa, drunk driving is called operating while intoxicated (OWI, often called DUI/DWI). This is a serious offense. Even though people from all walks of life with no criminal history make the mistake of driving under the influence, the state of Iowa prosecutes OWI aggressively. If you have been charged with OWI, you need an experienced defense attorney who can walk you through the legal process and defend you against these charges. Sometimes a little bit of knowledge can go a long way to ease your concerns after receiving OWI charges. Peter Hansen has extensive OWI knowledge and is a former prosecutor with over 37 years of experience in criminal law defense. Call our office in Burlington, Iowa for a free consultation right now at 319-752-5515.
