Modification, professional and understanding.

I hired Chris Pomerleau to navigate me through the modification process. He addressed all of my questions and concerns as they arose throughout my case. He is competent, upfront and to the point. Hands down, Chris is the attorney you want in your corner! I highly recommend Chris and his staff! ...

Compassionate advocate & litigator. Special needs. Medically complex. Power & control dynamics. Chris gets it!

Chris is hands down the attorney you want by your side as you wade through the challenges of divorce and child custody. Chris gets it. He understands the emotional side of divorce and guides you with compassion, honesty and integrity. His communication skills excel above others. You will always f...eel listened to, understood and responded to within 24 hours, if not sooner. My divorce was complex. Other attorneys didn’t want my case and were looking for cookie cutter solutions. Not Chris. He navigated muddy waters, learned about all of my daughters special needs, medical complexities and the power and control dynamics that plagued my marriage and divorce. If you have to go to court, as I did, you want Chris to be your voice. He is a strong advocate and fierce litigator for what you think is best for your child. Chris is smart, thinks quick on his feet and excels at strategy and organization. Opposing council had to bring in three legal professionals to go up against Chris. Chris found a way, against all odds, to get me and my children the best result possible. I trust him and am so grateful he was the attorney by my side!

Recommend Mediation...Efficient, Easy and less Stress

Chris explained everything in detail, answered all our questions and never made either of us feel as though he was on one side or the other....very important for a successful mediation. He guided us through entire process and ensured we understood the legalities of divorce. Throughout entire proces...s, he ensured we were confident and comfortable with outcome. Divorce is never easy, that said, Chris made is as easy and quick as possible. Mediation may not be for everyone but I would certainly explore before ending up in a very expensive divorce “battle”.

I'd recommend Chris

Chris was very knowledgeable and very up front from the beginning. He was well priced and approachable. I'd visited with other attorneys who advertise in the Omaha area and they were neither. I was mostly worried about getting fair numbers and he basically knew them immediately after looking at ou...r incomes and histories. He plugged them into his calculations and we were off and running. Would recommend him as he took care of everything.

Highly recommend Chris Pomerleau and staff

I highly recommend Chris Pomerleau and the entire staff at Nebraska Legal group they handled my child custody and child support case. He helped me get custody and child support dropped I was updated every step of the way either. They did an outstanding job!!!!
