Whitfield & Eddy Law

Whitfield & Eddy Law volunteers made over 40 friendship bracelets and keychains for kids served by the Iowa Center for Children's Justice.

The team gathered at our downtown Des Moines office on Friday, October 30, for the Drake Law School 2026 Mark S. Cady Day of Public Service.

Each bracelet and keychain is a small, colorful reminder for a child that people in their community are in their corner.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, and to the Iowa Center for Children's Justice for the important work it does for Iowa kids and families.

Whitfield & Eddy Law is proud to sponsor the 2026 Mark S. Cady Day of Public Service this Friday, October 30.

Every year, Iowa’s legal community and Drake Law School honor the late Iowa Supreme Court Chief Justice Mark S. Cady by volunteering together in their communities.

Our team is spending Friday on two projects here in Des Moines. We’ll help clean up Prospect Park with City of Des Moines - Government Parks and Recreation 🌳 and make friendship bracelets and keychains for the Iowa Center for Children's Justice. 💙

We’ve been part of this day since it began in 2020, and we’re glad to stand with Iowa Legal Aid, the Polk County Bar Association and The Iowa State Bar Association again this year.

They’re two of many projects happening across Iowa. Check the comments for the full list!

Going through a divorce this holiday season? Whitfield & Eddy Law family law attorney Katelyn Kurt has tips to help.

✅Look over your holiday parenting schedule now. Knowing where the kids will be and when can make the season smoother for everyone.

✅Reach out to an attorney early. Family law cases tend to pick up after the holidays, so getting started sooner gives you time to prepare.

Have questions? Contact Katelyn to talk through your situation.

Whitfield & Eddy Law spent Friday, October 16, at The University of Iowa College of Law Employer Expo in Iowa City.

Attorneys Taylor Mikel and Abbey Goulding set up a table full of swag in the Boyd Law Building, and our branded stress cubes were gone in no time. Law school is hard, so we were happy to help! 😅

Taylor and Abbey both joined us during their first year of law school and are associate attorneys today. They gave students an inside look at our summer associate program: hands-on work with our attorneys plus some fun summer events too.

Thanks to Iowa Law Career Services for hosting, and to every student who stopped by!
