Gun Law Changes in 2023
In its 2023 session the Nebraska Legislature made significant changes to the state's gun laws that legalize conduct that was previously illegal, and these changes have required cities and counties to change their laws to comply. In addition the US Supreme Court has issued rulings that also could affect any weapons charges against you. You should contact a lawyer immediately if you are charged with any type of gun or weapon charge.
If you are charged with or ticketed for any crime, whether a DUI, a misdemeanor or a felony, our experience with and knowledge of the prosecutors and judges will help you get the best defense and achieve the most favorable outcome.
If you are injured due to the fault of someone else or while at work, regardless of fault, we will work to help you get the treatment you need to recover from your injury and identify and present the damages you are entitled to under the law. Although most cases can be settled out of court, we have the trial experience that has obtained jury verdict awards for our clients if a settlement cannot be reached.
We can help guide you in determining whether you need a Will or can analyze and address your estate goals in some other manner, and can probate your will when that is necessary.
In addition we handle other legal needs such as deeding your property and other routine civil legal matters. And although we do not do everything, with our knowledge of the Nebraska and Omaha legal community we can provide a referral to similarly qualified and experienced lawyers in a way that will fit your exact needs.
