Read MoreA buy-sell agreement is a legally binding contract that governs what happens to ownership interests when a triggering event occurs such as death, disability, divorce, or a partner wanting to exit. Without one, those events can create serious disputes and threaten business continuity.
Read MoreCommon approaches include transferring ownership to a family member, selling to a key employee or management team, selling to a third party, or establishing an employee stock ownership plan. Each has different tax, legal, and financial implications that need careful evaluation.
Read MoreIdeally well before any transition is anticipated. Waiting until a health event, retirement, or unexpected circumstance forces the issue typically produces worse outcomes for everyone involved. The earlier planning begins the more options are available.

Read MoreA comprehensive estate plan typically includes a will, one or more trusts depending on your situation, a durable power of attorney, a healthcare power of attorney, and an advance directive. The right combination depends on your assets, family structure, and goals.
Read MoreYes. We handle both residential and commercial real estate transactions in Omaha and across Nebraska, including purchase and sale agreements, lease negotiations, and commercial property due diligence.

Read MoreWe review purchase agreements, title commitments, survey issues, easements, deed restrictions, financing documents, and closing disclosures to identify and resolve any issues before you are legally committed to the transaction.
Read MoreNebraska does not legally require an attorney for most real estate transactions, but having legal counsel review purchase agreements, title issues, and closing documents protects you from problems that are expensive to fix after closing. The stakes involved make legal review well worth the cost.

Before signing any NIL agreement, athletes should have legal counsel confirm the deal complies with applicable NCAA and institutional rules to avoid eligibility consequences.

Read MoreA Name, Image, and Likeness agreement is a contract that allows an athlete to be compensated for the use of their personal brand through endorsements, appearances, sponsorships, social media promotion, and similar activities.

Read MoreNebraska follows a comparative negligence rule that allows you to recover damages as long as your share of fault is less than 50 percent. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault. We investigate thoroughly to establish the other driver’s negligence and defend against any claims of your fault.

Read MoreYes. Contract review often leads to negotiation on specific provisions. We identify which terms create real risk, which are standard and acceptable, and where you have leverage to push for better language before you sign.

Straightforward service agreements can be drafted quickly. Complex multi-party agreements or transactions require more time. We work within your timeline whenever possible.
Read MoreTemplate contracts are a starting point at best. They are not tailored to Nebraska law, your specific industry, or the details of your transaction. Provisions that seem standard can create significant liability when applied to a real business relationship. Having an attorney draft or review your agreements is worth the investment.

Read MoreNon-payment of court-ordered support can result in wage garnishment, tax refund interception, license suspension, contempt of court proceedings, and in serious cases incarceration. We pursue enforcement remedies aggressively when support obligations are not being met.

Read MoreAt minimum, governance documents should be reviewed when the business grows significantly, ownership changes, or new regulations affect your industry. An annual review with legal counsel is a strong practice for most businesses.
