Testimonials

We have worked with Laura Lockwood on some very personal and sensitive family matters. She was wonderful to work with she was able to explain a lot of law we were unfamiliar with. She spent countless hours with us to make sure we knew exactly what all our options were. I can not say enough about her compassion she is truly a professional in her role with Hartung Schroeder. She has always been  accessible  for us whenever we needed her. We made some tough decisions and I am happy to say we received a happy ending , she walked side by side with us I can’t imagine anyone else would have given us anymore than Laura did.

I met and have used J.D. Hartung for over 30 years now. He has helped me through personal and business legalities and has always given me the good the bad and the ugly up front. I have found J.D. to be a great listener and a great person to bounce ideas off of. He has not only helped me through legal but sometimes emotional decisions as well taking on the burdens himself. I find him to be a true professional and ethical person and that stands the test of time for me.

Brad Schroeder is an exceptional attorney.  He and his team worked with me for years on two child custody cases as well as a civil case.  My cases were fairly complicated, and Brad achieved successful outcomes in all of them.  The civil case went to the Iowa Supreme Court where Brad and his team secured a favorable verdict.  Mr. Schroeder is an honest attorney, and he made a very stressful time in my life much more manageable. Thank you!

My physical therapy practice ran into an issue where we had a partner leaving and we realized that our buyout document had multiple inconsistencies throughout it. Once we had this realization, we started looking at our work agreements and our corporate bylaws and once again came to the realization that or original documents had been prepared with multiple inconsistencies and contradictions. At that point, I got in contact with Jon and he proceeded to work through all of our old corporate documents and showed us in an easy-to-understand way where the inconsistencies were. He then made a plan to make sure that not only each document was consistent, but that all of our documents fit together in a uniform way. Jon always got work done when he said it would be done, he did high quality work, and he billed us in a much more fair way than attorneys that I had worked with in the past. I would highly recommend Jon to any business looking to get their documents in order.

Working with Hartung and Schroeder, specifically, Jon Garner for the past 15 years has been a pleasure in many ways. I deal in facts, not fluff with my businesses, and I truly appreciate working with other business professionals who operate in the same manner. Working with Jon on both my businesses and my families personal legal matters has been as efficient and effective as I could ever ask for. Between quick response times, answers that are spoken in a language that I can understand(not “attorney” jargon), and the willingness to help with the little things that make a huge difference in my day, I wouldn’t hesitate one second on referring friends, family and business associates to Jon and his firm. The proof is in the pudding, as I’ve recommended countless number of potential clients to Jon over the years, and will continue to do so.

Brad was absolutely amazing handling my case and walked me through the process keeping me informed of what was going on.  He was compassionate, yet ruthless.  I have recommended him to a few of my friends and he has come through for each and everyone of them.  Attorneys like him are hard to find.  Thank you Brad!
