About

Evan Starcevic is Founder and Attorney at Starcevic Law.  The law firm stands for the proposition that good dads should have quality time with their kids, and collaborative law protects children from divorce.  Evan believes children of families who separate should not be forced to pick sides in their parents’ conflict, that kids should have the opportunity for maximum contact with both parents, and that reducing conflict for separating families helps children grow up to be healthy, successful adults.  Evan lives in Johnston, Iowa with his daughter and serves in the local Army National Guard.

Evan was the first name that popped up when I google searched "best lawyer for fathers". The internet is full of lies and deception but in this case it couldn't have been more right. I discussed with Evan my situation and financial abilities. I couldn't afford him. 2 days later Evan called me and offered to assist me in representing myself with paid coaching from Evan, I accepted his offer. 2 months down the road I was able to hire Evan full time on my divorce. He extensivly looked through my situation and got to know me and my children. He respected all choices I made in my case. He was always there for phone calls, emails, and in person meetings. I went to court yesterday for my trial. I won't know the outcome for 2 weeks. Good or bad I do know that hiring Evan, and his team of lawyers that he has at his discretion, made it possible to fight for everything a loving father could possible ask for. I am forever grateful. Thank you Evan.

I have known Evan for many years through a shared affiliation, but I never thought I would need his services as an attorney. I'm grateful that he was there when I needed him. I could comment on the technology that his office uses to keep his clients informed; I could comment on his skills when navigating a difficult mediation and trial; or, I can simply comment on the man that was always just a phone call away. Like many others, I did not know what to do and was anxious about what laid ahead. After our initial conversation, I knew I had found a great fit for who, and what, I needed. It was Evan's honesty, values, poise and ability to communicate that made my decision easy. As a military retiree, I appreciate Evan's keen understanding of military divorces too. As a veteran himself, Evan understands the "lingo" of the military, which allowed us to communicate effectively throughout the process. Again, I never thought I would need a family law attorney, but when I did, Evan was there for me. If you ever find yourself in need of a truly professional attorney, Evan should be at the top of your list.

My regular attorney didn't handle family law, but recommended Evan to me. He was very polite, professional and helpful through the entire proceedings. He helped me get a very reasonable visitation with my child and I would definitely recommend him and contact him if I ever need anything again. It's just too bad that Iowa law puts Fathers through this process. It's as though we have no rights at all unless we go to the mat and fight for them. There are lots of good Fathers out there and some don't have the money or stamina to go through the process. I'm happy that Evan helped me through all of that. He's a really good guy and attorney.

Evan helped me through a divorce this past year. It was an unexpected event for me personally. My ex-spouse was much more mentally prepared than I was. Evan made the process simple to understand and was very easy to work with. I felt like he explained complexities well and did a good job of listening to understanding my desires and needs. We were able to work collaboratively with my ex and her attorney without entering into formal court litigation. I felt he had a well balanced approach - not too heavy handed on demands so as to lose ground by angering the other party, but not too lose so as to give up ground where it was unnecessary. He made me very well aware of what I could stand to lose at the beginning and I felt that we saw virtually everything coming from the opposition. We were able to make some great adjustments because of his foresight and innovation and came away with several win win scenarios that were easy to negotiate. I appreciate his services very much. Thanks Evan.

Evan was professional and supportive in handling my divorce. He quickly answered all of questions and concerns. He expertly guided me through the process and I would highly recommend retaining Evan if you are in need of counsel.

I had asked Mr Starcevic to assist me in a custody dispute. He was always honest and told me the straight answers as to what we can do and how the confusing system works sometimes. He was always willing to help and advise me no matter when I would contact him. I've even recommended him to others and gotten the same feedback. His pricebis also more that fair.

I was very pleased with the attention and commitment Evan gave to my divorce. He knew exactly how to handle the mediation to get what I wanted and avoid trial. I strongly recommend his service.

Very professional, honest and straight forward lawyer. Evan maintains a very open line of communication and answered all my question quickly. Evan has found ways to use technology to help his clients stay current on all documentation related to the case. This helped cut down on time needed with face-to-face meetings, yet he was more than willing to meet face-to-face. For me, not knowing how to navigate the legal system Evan talked in terms I could understand and made things very simple. I would recommend Evan to anyone needing divorce or seperation legal services.
