I hired Charles Bauer to handle my divorce on the recommendation of a colleague who had been quite happy with him some time ago. While my ex-wife and I did not end up going to trial, we did have a few legal tussles along the way to a settlement. She, and her attorney(s), were fairly aggressive in demanding certain things from me -- in the form of money, custody of our son, and more generally, a settlement that suited her. Chuck was a good guide through these various exchanges. He acted as a voice of reason for me, when my inclination was to respond emotionally. The one time we did go to court (to deal with a couple of petitions filed by my ex), he did a great job. In the end, she and I settled. However, the post-settlement has been almost as tumultuous as the period between filing and settling, and Chuck has been just as effective in handling my responses to what seems to be a continuous stream of demands from my ex. I recommend him without reservation.

Charles Bauer is not only a lawyer but a real caring, honest and straight forward human being. His communication on every issue is super fast for someone in his position and with his work load. He's the type of lawyer that won't just tell you what you want to hear, but what you NEED to hear. If not for his kick in the butt I might just be squabbling over something I didn't need too. I live in Iowa and needed to hire a Lawyer in the state my child lives in and got it wrong the first time....I switched to Charles and if he lived in my home state of Iowa I'd have him over for dinner for the amazing job he's done. If your looking for someone who will tell you the truth...honestly what you need to hear and will get the job done...he's your guy.

In the nearly 2 years we have worked with Chuck we learned what a caring and honest man he is. He didn't tell us what we wanted to hear nor did he ever try to over inflate our expectations. When we talked with Chuck he always listened and asked questions. He also took notes of anything we had concerns about. He talked us back to reality when we had a hard day in court, and always made sure we knew what the next step was or what to expect. He always pushed to show our side of what was going on and made sure our concerns were voiced. Whenever we reached out to him he was always available even during covid, on the weekends or even after we finished. He would check in on our kids and how visitations went. His invoices are straight forward so you always know what you are paying for. His staff is always as caring and friendly as he is. He was highly recommended to us and he lived up to that recommendation and so much more i would not hesitate to recommend him. Kevin M and Xana C

Chuck has conducted my divorce and custody case with expertise, concern, and spontaneous requests to include successful representation through the Supreme Court. I would highly recommend him for any matter concerning family court. He is the best!

From the first time I met Charles, I was given a sense of confidence knowing he was going to fight his hardest for me and my daughter. I was never late I finding out anything, even if it required a phone call on the weekend on his personal time! I highly recommend Charles and the staff at Gravis Law

Chuck listened to my complicated problem, asked questions until he had all the facts straight, then got to work! He and Donna always responded quickly and answered my questions clear and straight. I couldn't be more happy with the results Chuck provided.

Initial consultation. He gave me lots of useful information. Easy to communicate with, has years of experience, somebody I believe would be good to work with.

Charles Bauer gave me hours at an extra discount, throughout my case, while communicating his actions and why. Charles gave me multiple consultations, some free and a couple at 1/3 price, before asking to be retained, after explaining the most likely outcomes to me. I am very happy with Charles Bauer. Recommended.

Mr. Bauer was very helpful in litigating a custody modification for me. His work was thorough, and he promptly responded to any questions I had about my case. His staff was also very helpful in getting me any information I needed. I would recommend Mr. Bauer and his law firm to anyone needing help with a family law case.

From the first day that I walked into Chuck's office I recognized him as a compassionate and caring professional. Throughout my entire divorce process, Chuck was always there for me to answer questions and to provide well thought out advice. His entire team was friendly and also quick to help with any questions or requests. This was my first time, and hopefully last, that I ever needed the services of an attorney. However, if I ever require help from a legal professional Chuck would be the first person that I would call.
