The determination of the need for legal services and the choice
of a lawyer are extremely important decisions and should not be
based solely upon advertisements or self-proclaimed expertise. This
disclosure is required by rule of the Supreme Court of Iowa. Memberships
and offices in legal fraternities and legal societies, technical
and professional licenses, and memberships in scientific, technical
and professional associations and societies of law or field of practice
does not mean that a lawyer is a specialist or expert in a field
of law, nor does it mean that such lawyer is necessarily any more
expert or competent than any other lawyer. All potential clients
are urged to make their own independent investigation and evaluation
of any lawyer being considered. This notice is required by rule
of the Supreme Court of Iowa.
