About Attorney Hinshaw
My firm handles hundreds of divorces every year in Central Iowa ranging from simple uncontested divorces to complex international family law cases in federal court. My team is second to none. I have been the lead trial counsel in over one hundred divorce matters in Central Iowa, including international cases brought under the constructs of the Hague Convention in the United States Federal Court for Iowa. I have also successfully argued numerous cases in front of the Iowa Court of Appeals. In addition to divorces, I represent individuals who have suffered catastrophic injuries in state and federal court. In the last two years I have collected over ten million dollars on behalf of injured parties. I am a member of the Iowa State Bar Association, Polk County Bar Association, and the American Bar Association (ABA). I sit on the family law section of all three bar associations and sit on the International Family Law Committee of the ABA. I grew up in Ankeny and currently reside there with my wife and daughters. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my family, playing in the Des Moines Adult Baseball League, and managing my stable of racehorses.
