Sam is a nice guy he helped me with my housing situation and got me to feel that justice was served and made me feel not as bad about what took place. Nobody’s perfect but this guy is good and getting better

My son got accused of a crime, as a mother i knew the charges were against him from the beginning, i called every lawyer possible when the police called me and told me what he was accused of. Sam is the only one that called me back with in mins, and told me I’M not telling you this as a lawyer, I’m telling you this as a decent human being, and gave me the advise i needed. Because of that i trusted him from the beginning, and he believed in my son’s innocence. He took it upon himself to knock door-to-door to any witness that he was told that could help my son‘s case, he did more work with investigating the allegation then the actual police did. Sam treated us like people, not a pay check, and i will be forever grateful for the work he did and for always being straight forward. Sam did fight! And because he fought so hard for my son, my son gets to live his best life!

I had lost a $250,000 a year job and all of my equipment as a result of false allegation against me in a double breach of contract case. I contacted the law firm Mr. Wooden works at and received a call from him a few days later. After a short discussion he declined to take the case. No justice to be found here.

I hired Sam after a dispute regarding my landlord. He did everything in his power to help things go smoothly leaving me far less stressed out. He was very reasonable and attentive to me as his client. I highly recommend hiring him as a lawyer to represent you for any applicable needs

Sam went above and beyond to make sure that I got the minimum charges and fines. Without him I would have been lost. Would recommend for anyone!

Sam was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable throughout my experience working with him. He was very thorough in his instructions and advice and followed through on his end to ensure that everything went according to plan. The case resulted in the best possible outcome due to Sam’s diligent work. I would highly recommend using Sam.

Thank you Sam I really appreciate you! You looked at my 2 warrant cases for traffic not only did you take them you got them dismissed. I really feel like I owe you so much more

Was referred to Sam and while talking on the phone he refused to let my boyfriend speak, he told him he should have taken an issue to small claims court when my boyfriend wasn’t calling about that issue, he was calling about a wrongful eviction that he was trying to appeal but this lawyer had his head wrapped around the other issue (we only brought the other issue up to let him know the whole story) he then hung up after saying we should have taken them to small claims court. All we are doing is an appeal. If he had listened and didn’t interrupt then he’d know that.

Sam was recommended to me by another lawyer regarding a simple misdemeanor ticket my daughter received. I wanted to know how this would affect her and if there were other options available. Sam immediately took on my case and took the time to answer all of my questions honestly. He was extremely knowledgeable and down to earth. It is apparent that Sam is very passionate about what he does. I would highly recommend him to others and would not hesitate to hire him again.

Atty. Wooden works hard and smart for his clients. We have the pleasure of having him on our side as we work for fairness and equity in rental housing in Dubuque Iowa. He meets with the client, does his research, and presents in a respectful and sober manner in court using carefully reviewed research. His facts and carefully considered opinions drive his arguments. His guidance is greatly appreciated. Co-Chair Dubuque Chapter NAACP sponsored Friends of Fair Housing

Sam did a great job as my personal injury attorney. He was very knowledgeable, prompt, and best of all, honest. I would definitely recommend his services.

I met Sam, shortly after he moved to Dubuque Iowa. He was taking time to get to know people, and the area. I am a community activist,, former city council member, here in Dubuque. Our group is Friends of Fair Housing. Sam has taken time to meet with us and the tenants. He has not asked us or the tenants for money. Most lawyers start away from this type of case or cases. It is tedious, weary, and not always profitable. Sam , took it on because of how people were being taken advantage of , and no were to turn. He has helped bring justice to the people whom are needing the help the most, and not being judgemental. Because he cares about what he is doing , and he cares enough about people.
