About Justin D Riem

Unlike many of my law school peers, I didn’t always know I wanted to be a lawyer. While attending high school in Minnesota, I was a bit of an entrepreneur, starting and running my own car detailing and lawn care businesses. When I went back to my home state of Wisconsin to start my undergraduate studies at UW-Madison, I followed in my brother’s footsteps and initially sought an engineering degree. After a year and a half of studying, however, I realized my true passions lied with the elective courses I took in psychology and social sciences; the classes that challenged me to see the world through different lenses and think creatively to find solutions to difficult problems. I immediately changed my major, pursued a career in the law, and never looked back.I represent my clients ethically, analytically, and empathetically. I understand when meeting a prospective client, it is often during the worst moments of his or her life, and I don’t take that lightly. Trials are rarely the desired answer, but in some cases, they are the only appropriate solution. That is why I focused my attention both during and after law school on litigation, client counseling, and negotiation, to ensure I had the tools necessary to best help my clients achieve their goals. When I moved to Iowa with my wife and our children in 2016, I joined a local general practice firm and continued to cultivate my skills in civil litigation and negotiation, representing clients in a variety of matters, from contempt proceedings to breaches of corporate fiduciary duty claims.My extensive experience in a wide array of legal areas, together with my practical, real-world knowledge and creative approach, gives my clients the trust that their matters are skillfully handled by a dedicated attorney who not only understands their legal needs, but has their best interests in mind. I know what it means to work hard for the most important things in your life. I feel quite privileged to use my passion for and knowledge of the law to help local Iowans navigate the confusing, emotionally charged, and often-adversarial legal system to get the justice they want and deserve.

I had a very complicated situation and Justin was amazing throughout the entire process. He made sure that I understood all of my options, and always answered my questions quickly, even outside of his normal hours. I hope I don’t ever need his services again, but if I do, I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again.

Justin did an excellent job advocating for me when I needed an attorney. I got a strong sense of integrity from him as a family man and as an attorney. Justin and his team were friendly, professional, and to the point, and were quick to respond to my emails and calls. They did an amazing job reading, understanding, and helping me with what I needed to write for my case and helping me understand what were good choices to make during the case. I am very grateful for the outcome. I highly recommend.

I hired Justin to represent me through my divorce and custody case. Addiction was an issue that posed significant safety issues for my daughter. Justin was absolutely dedicated to helping me keep her safe. Justin is knowledgeable and straight to the point. He knows what he is doing. I had major amounts of anxiety during my divorce that Justin easily alleviated by answering questions and coming to court readdddy to go! He was available at almost any time for urgent questions/situations which was so important when it came to my child's safety. 10/10 would recommend Justin over and over again!

Justin Riem is an amazing attorney. He represented me in a brutal divorce with an exhausting custody battle. The process was long and daunting however Justin walked me step by step through the process. I knew exactly what was going on with my case, when deadlines were approaching and the possible outcomes as we moved forward. Going through a divorce puts your entire life under a microscope. I had confidence, I had the best person working my case and representing me during court appearances. He shows kindness and compassion towards his clients but is very capable to be aggressive and assertive to the opposing side! If you find yourself in need of an attorney, I highly recommend Justin Riem at Arenson Law.
