Katie Naset helped me get through one of the hardest times in my life. She kept open communication with me throughout the entire process of my divorce. It is a very hard time to go through, but she proved to me I could trust in her, and helped me through every step! I had a lawyer prior to hiring Katie, who stole from me, and lied to me. I had no trust in any lawyer at this point. Katie gave me hope, and helped me trust again and to have faith in the legal system. Katie has also given me further legal advise, even after the divorce was final. I would recommend her to anyone! Thanks for everything you've done Katie!

I hired Katie to represent me at a child support hearing since I live 1000 miles away. Katie was exceptionally knowledgeable, reassuring, professional, and has terrific follow through. I've spoken to many attorneys in the 8 years since I've been divorced, but none have treated me with the compassion and empathy Katie has for her clients. It's clear that she wants the best outcome for the family involved because she cares, not because it's just a job to her. After I hired Katie I completely relaxed, because I felt that confident in her abilities. I was right; she was well prepared and strongly advocated for my daughter, and achieved exactly the results I had hoped for. I cannot recommend Katie highly enough.

Katie and her team are there for you. Katie is fair with her billing and responds to emails in a timely manner. Katie listened to what I wanted in the divorce, and would provide advice based on her years of experience. Sometimes it wasn't what I wanted to hear, but it was good and fair advice. In the end, Katie was there for me and was awesome during the mediation. She is very knowledgeable about Iowa divorce and if she doesn't know the answer (which was rare), she will find the answer. The divorce process itself is very frustrating and can be very unfair but Katie navigates the rules and laws with confidence and knowledge.

Katie was very helpful during my stressful divorce. My ex was really dragging his feet and she made sure to keep pushing and keeping the ball rolling. She was always very prompt and informative whenever I had any questions or concerns. I would definitely recommend her and Hope Law Firm!

Although I can't say I ever "enjoyed" my three year experience with Hope Law Firm due to the fact we were dealing with my ex-husband, I must say that Katie Naset was great to work with and in fact I now consider her a friend. Katie was always responsive to phone calls and emails, and her assistant Shelby was ready to help when Katie wasn't available. Katie did her best to work within a broken judicial system to help me receive the property payments I was due according to my divorce decree, she represented me strongly and well when we had to go to court, and did her best to reassure me during emotional times. I highly recommend Katie Naset at the Hope Law Firm.

Katie handled my divorce with children. She was great! I always felt comfortable with her, she was easy to talk to, and she explained all steps of the process. I really appreciated her prompt responses to my calls or emails. Katie seemed like she genuinely had time for me and cared about my case. She sat with me for hours during mediation, and sat with me until I was satisfied with my interrogatories, she made sure I had no worries when all I was doing was worrying.

Attorney Katie Naset made the difficult and confusing process of getting divorced much easier, less stressful, and understandable. She and her team were incredibly responsive to emails and calls with questions, and walked me through each step carefully. I never felt like I was being rushed or that my questions were a waste of their time. When I hired Katie, I knew that I was getting an experienced divorce and family law attorney, and that she and the entire team at Hope Law Firm had handled many complex cases so nothing came as a surprise. When an issue would come up and a fast response was needed, Katie and her team were able to quickly get answers to keep the process moving, which I appreciated. Katie is bright, dedicated, compassionate, and knows her job. My experience working with Katie made a huge difference in the emotional process of divorce, and I'd recommend her to anyone.

Katie had the ability to put me at ease during an extremely stressful and emotional time in my life. She was always available to answer any questions and concerns that I had and encouraged me to be strong, even when my circumstances were the most difficult. Katie's personality is very down to earth. She is kind, caring, and thoughtful, yet she is able provide her clients with the necessary knowledge and experience at just the right times. I would highly recommend her!

If you are looking for an attorney who cares about your situation, listens to what you want, focuses on the facts, is responsive, answers all your questions, and is honest, and tells you what to expect look no further than Hope Law Firm. Katie worked with my wife and I through a long custody battle that we didn't initiate and was with us every step of the way. Calls and emails were answered in a timely manner and we were updated on every filing or meeting that took place. Although there were times when we just wanted it to be done Katie listened to what we wanted and gave her honest professional opinion on what we could expect. We decided not to settle and see it through to the courtroom. Katie and the staff at Hope Law Firm made sure we were well prepared for the trial that took place. Katie is very professional and knowledgeable as are all the associates we worked with at Hope Law Firm. Although it was an experience we didn't enjoy going through Katie showed compassion for our situation, listened to us, and showed us that she wanted what was best for us and for our daughter We would STRONGLY recommend Katie and Hope Law Firm to anyone looking for legal representation.

A total waste of time and money! Called the Hope Law Firm to represent me in a child custody case and was referred to Andrew Hope. At the initial interview Andrew was in and out of the room several times asking questions of someone either in the office or on the phone. He said he would take the case and would be working side by side with Pam Vandel, who had more experience with child custody than he did. It sounded like a good deal, and I paid the retainer. That was the last time I saw Andrew. After Pam botched a court appearance and wasn't returning my calls, I called Andrew for help, but he never returned my call. After a week or so I called him again. I was put on hold, and the receptionist came back to tell me that Andrew said I needed to discuss this with Pam. That was pretty difficult to do since she didn't return calls either. I called Andrew again a few days later and was finally allowed to speak with him. He told me that Pam was my attorney, and I would need to keep trying to contact her. Now Andrew denies ever working with Pam and has accused me of posting false accusations. These are not accusations - they are facts!

Thank you Katie and Shelby, and staff! Could not have had a better outcome for my children and I. I appreciate your hard work and dedication. Hopefully I do not need an attorney in the future, but if any friend do I will be sure to send them to see you guys. Very courteous and friendly to deal with. Thanks- A.C.
