Carney & Appleby Law

Carney Appleby Law was founded by James W. Carney.  Upon his graduation from Drake Law School and the receipt of his law license in 1975, Jim Carney hung his shingle and began his firm in the general practice of law.  Through hard work, dedication, and many, many early mornings and long nights, Jim has built one of the premier lobbying and personal injury practices in the state of Iowa.  Jim’s list of loyal legislative clients is long and distinguished, and his list of trial victories and reported Iowa cases is equally impressive.  Through more than four decades of practice, Jim has remained true to his mission:  to provide first-rate advocacy for his clients with purpose and professionalism.
