​

Knowledgeable in multiple areas of the law

Bauch & Lechtenberg Law Office has a thorough understanding of Iowa law. We work hard to help you get the best possible results in the following practice areas:

​

•                               We work with you to take a comprehensive look at your estate plan, which may include drafting a Last Will and Testament or a Trust Agreement to control what happens to your property after your death, preparing a Power of Attorney to authorize another person to make important decisions for you in the event of incapacity, structuring gifts for tax or charitable purposes, and establishing guardianships or conservatorships to ensure you or your loved ones will receive proper care and protection in the event of disability.

​

•                                                       Following a person’s death, some sort of administration is usually necessary. The form of administration may vary greatly from preparing and filing a simple affidavit all the way up to full administration under the supervision of the probate court. We work with Executors, Trustees and other fiduciaries, as well as beneficiaries, to ensure that our clients’ interests are protected.

​

•                        We can assist you with various real estate matters, including preparing purchase agreements or leases, examining abstracts of title and issuing title opinions, conducting closings, and resolving landlord-tenant disputes. If you are buying or selling a home or land in Iowa, we can help.

​

•                               Tax law is a complex legal area that is always changing. We primarily handle income tax returns for individuals and fiduciaries, but can also advise you regarding federal estate and gift tax, Iowa inheritance tax, Iowa sales tax, and various other taxes. If you have received a notice or assessment from the IRS or Iowa Department of Revenue, we can review the matter to make sure you pay the proper amount of taxes, and no more.
