also known as John Lentz
I chose the legal profession later in life because I wanted a challenging and rewarding career where I could help people in unfortunate situations and help people plan in order to avoid those same circumstances in the future. I graduated from the University of Nebraska College of Law, receiving a Juris Doctorate with Distinction in 2010. I also hold a Master of Arts in Philosophy.
While in law school, I received CALI Excellence for the Future Awards in Bankruptcy, Secured Transactions, Business Planning, and Native American Law Seminar. I also received the American Bankruptcy Institute Medal of Excellence and the American Law Institute/American Bar Association’s Scholarship and Leadership Award. I was also chosen as the first-place winner in the 2009-2010 American Indian Law Review Writing Competition, for his article “When Canons Go to War in Indian Country, Guess Who Wins?” Barrett v. United States: Tax Canons and Canons of Construction in the Federal Taxation of American Indians.” 35 Am. Ind. L. Rev. 211 (2010). In addition, I co-authored an article in The Nebraska Lawyer: John A. Lentz & David P. Lepant, When the Heart-Broken are Financially Broken: Divorce and Bankruptcy, 14 The Neb. Lawyer No. 3, 11 (March, 2011).

Our bankruptcy came shortly after my cancer surgery. We were already emotionally wiped out and medical bills flooding in after the insurance paid.

A great team!
I needed to file for Bankruptcy and called several lawyers. I felt like a number and kind of shamed by most of them. John was very compassionate and understanding with my needs.
