David L. Charles

June 26, 2025 | Press Release

Congratulations to David Charles on 50 years as a dedicated member of the Iowa Bar Association! Since his admission in 1975, David’s legal career has spanned decades of service as a trial attorney in both Iowa and Montana. From his early days in the Iowa Senate to memorable courtroom victories, including a landmark case against the FDA, David has built a legacy of excellence and resilience as a trial attorney. His adventurous spirit led him to balance a dual-state practice while enjoying the outdoors of Montana— an impressive feat that included passing the Montana Bar at age 53. Through it all, David has remained committed to his clients, his colleagues, and the evolving practice of law. Belin honors his remarkable journey and thanks him for five decades of professionalism, mentorship, and passion for the law. We are lucky to count him as a friend and colleague.
