My son, Sean and I practice together. He's 43 years old. I am considerably older. So if you are considering our firm, know that you get two lawyers in one for your money. You get the younger and smarter partner, Sean. He's become quit experienced at such a youthful age. Sean is experienced in varied legal situations: Complex work comp matters that necessitate 3rd party actions; and multifaceted medical and legal malpractice litigation - to name a few. You also get the old guy with the wisdom that come from decades of representing literally thousands of clients over the years. I can say thousands with confidence thinking back to just one case in which I represented 106 clients.
We at Rensch & Rensch work as a team laboring only for the benefit and well-being of our clients. We employ a talented staff of 4 paralegals to help make it all possible. Our paralegals, Nate, Lisa, Laci and Joyce enjoy a comfortable and easily accessible space with Sean and I, in the John D. Wear Building, located in the middle of Omaha at 7602 Pacific Street. We've been at this location for the last 10 years or so. Because of Covid-19, we have the ability to and do work remotely - depending on the circumstances.
I am a lifelong resident of Omaha. I graduated from Prep high school and attended NU on an athletic scholarship. I graduated from UNL in 1974, and Creighton Law School in 1977. I am married to my high school sweetheart, Connie. We raised our five children here, living in the Elmwood Park, Loveland/Westside and Eagle Run neighborhoods. All our kids were educated in Omaha's Catholic and public schools through high school. All were encouraged to and did attend college and/or beyond and are now successful contributing members to their communities.
We at Rensch & Rensch look forward - each and every day, to helping our clients achieve the best possible outcomes. We strive for excellence in service to each of our clients. Just as a high tide raises all ships, it is our hope that by bringing the case we work on today to a successful conclusion, benefits will flow to those clients who follow. I've seen this process work over the years. We've built a foundation that will help serve our future clients.
