The Back Forty Lawyer
by Jennifer L Zahradnik
Law, land, and life in rural Iowa. The Back 40 Lawyer is a weekly agricultural law podcast helping Iowa farmers and landowners protect their ground, their families, and their legacy — explained in plain English, with no lawyer-speak. Hosted by attorney Jen Zahradnik of Legal Solutions of Iowa — a farm kid from central Nebraska, an Iowa State animal science grad, and a Drake Law graduate who has raised sheep her whole life — each short episode tackles the legal issues that actually land on a farm family's kitchen table. We cover farm estate planning and succession, keeping the family farm in the family, farmland real estate transactions, farm leases (including Iowa's September 1 termination deadline), partition actions when co-owners can't agree, boundary line and fence disputes — "boundary by acquiescence" — CRP contracts and compliance, and more. Always practical, always rooted in real rural Iowa life. Whether you farm in central or eastern Iowa,
