Ronald F. Eich started his educational path at Creighton University, the place he completed his Bachelor of Arts in 1964. He went on to earn a Juris Doctor from Creighton University School of Law. Those years laid the groundwork for an extended career in the courts of the Midwest.
After law school, Eich entered practice in Iowa. Over time he secured admission to more than one federal jurisdictions, which includes the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa and the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa. He additionally holds admission to the bar of the U.S. highest court. Those credentials allowed him to manage matters that touch both state and federal law.
Eich’s career spans a few years of court work and case preparation. He developed experience managing procedural and substantive elements of litigation. He has spent lengthy hours drafting pleadings, preparing briefs and arguing before judges. The work required thoroughness and a continuous strategy to deadlines and court rules.
Colleagues and judges have come to anticipate cautious written work and actual oral advocacy. Eich discovered to match legal theory to practical steps in a case. He balanced time within the workplace with time in court. That balance kept legal proceedings shifting and clients knowledgeable about subsequent steps.
Holding admission to the U.S. highest court offers Eich a specific procedural status. It allows him to adopt federal filings and to pursue things that may require briefing at better levels of the judiciary. Likewise, his admissions within the Northern and Southern Districts of Iowa permit him to litigate in federal trial courts when cases fall under federal jurisdiction.
Outside of appearances, Eich has been involved in the daily tasks that sustain a regulation practice: client meetings, evidence-gathering process management and motion work. He has labored on cases that required coordination amongst more than one parties and attention to evolving court procedures. He prefers to resolve disputes where feasible, but he prepares very well for trial when settlement is now not an option.
Now practicing in Iowa, Eich keeps a caseload that spans state and federal matters, drawing on his admissions to the Iowa bar, the U.S. District Courts for the Northern and Southern Districts of Iowa and the U.S. highest court for matters that arise in those boards.
