Sara Riley graduated
from Drake University Law School in December 1985. After sitting for and
passing the Iowa Bar Exam in January 1986, Sara joined the Tom Riley Law Firm.
Since 1986, Sara has
represented clients who have suffered personal injuries, who have been injured
as a result of medical negligence, have been subjected to discrimination in
employment and who's civil rights have been violated. Sara has tried cases
in both federal and state courts in Iowa. When necessary, Sara has
successfully appealed cases on behalf of her clients to the Iowa Supreme Court.
Sara enjoys the practice of law as it allows her to help her clients correct
injustices.
