Daniels earned a B.A. from Drake University in 1980 and a J.D. from Drake University in 1983. He was admitted to practice in Iowa in 1983. More than four decades of legal practice have added substantial experience to that academic foundation, particularly in areas where business ownership, real estate, estate planning, and probate administration can intersect. His background supports careful analysis of agreements, asset ownership, succession, and fiduciary responsibilities.
Daniels works with business clients on corporate and operational matters and assists with real estate transactions and related legal issues. He also advises individuals and families on wills, trusts, elder law concerns, and estate planning, then helps with probate or trust administration when a fiduciary must carry out those plans. This combination of planning and administration allows Daniels to address legal needs across different stages of business ownership, property management, and family wealth transfer.
Steve K. Daniels is active in the Black Hawk County Estate Planning Council and has participated in bar-related real estate and practice-area committees. Daniels also presents on estate-planning and real-estate topics. His long-standing Cedar Valley practice helps clients address business, property, elder law, and estate matters with an understanding of how current decisions can affect later administration, succession, and ownership goals.
