Who is the #1 law firm in Omaha?
That depends on what you are looking for in a law firm. Some firms are larger than others. Some are more expensive than others. Some firms specialize in bankruptcy or banking or insurance law. A better question might be, "Which law firm is best for you?".
I help ordinary people who have a problem. I don't work for insurance companies, banks, or large corporations. Because I have a smaller office with only a few law clerks to help me, I am affordable for the people who need me the most. If you need help and don't want to pay for a large team of lawyers to work on your case, then call me to see if I can help you.
I work very much like the family doctor that you see for all of your routine complaints and check-ups. Most problems we can take care of immediately. Sometimes you might have a problem so unique, that we call in a specialist. I work the same way with you, by consulting with other lawyers on specialized matters.
How personal lawyers work...
Personal lawyers have been common for many years to the very wealthy and to businesses. The wealthy often have their 'family lawyer' or 'family firm' on retainer to represent all of their legal issues. Sometimes these relationships will span several generations within the family. Small businesses will also frequently retain a law firm to serve as their general counsel for all issues. The general counsel works very much like a personal lawyer by handling routine matters and giving general advice; then working as a legal manager to coordinate the efforts of several attorneys on more complicated problems.
There is a growing number of private lawyers who are now offering this model of service to small businesses, families, and individuals as a personal lawyer. A personal lawyer serves you by consulting with other attorneys who specialize in unique areas of the law. In very complicated cases, a personal lawyer may retain other attorneys to work on a portion of your case and the personal lawyer serves as a legal manager for you to make certain the work is done efficiently and economically.
