Criminal Defense
The consequences of a criminal conviction are too varied and numerous to summarize here. They include, among other things, incarceration in jail or prison, deportation, substantial fines, and court costs, loss of driving and voting privileges and the ability to own or possess a weapon, and loss of employment or the ability to obtain a decent job. A qualified criminal defense attorney in Omaha can do the following...
DUI/DWI
If law enforcement officers recently stopped you for driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, you may question whether you should hire an Omaha DUI lawyer. You should know that itâ€™s always a good idea to contact a lawyer for advice. In fact, itâ€™s never too soon to do so if you face DUI charges in Nebraska.
Traffic Violations
Greg Nelson is a great lawyer and I highly recommend him. I was visiting from out of state for a charity event when was stopped for a DUI. I was able to reach Greg and meet with him first thing the next morning. He walked me through the court process and was always available to answer my questions. He found an error in the police procedure and was able to get the charge reduced to reckless driving. Thank you Greg!
Sex Crimes
Sex crimes are some of the most heinous crimes a person can be accused of. If you are convicted of a sex crime, you could face years in prison and other harsh penalties.
Robbery
Manslaughter, second-degree assault, and breaking into an occupied building as significant felonies qualify as Class IIA crimes for each of these circumstances. A Class IIA felon may be addicted to drugs like meth or methamphetamine and might receive a term of up to two years and ten months in prison. The Class II level of crime includes offenses including fraud, first-degree robbery, human trafficking, and sexual assault. The maximum penalty for a Class IIA felony in Nebraska is 20 years imprisonment.
Theft
Misdemeanors
Whether you are arrested or given a citation for a law violation depends on the nature of the case and where it occurs. For most misdemeanors, crimes that carry a possible sentence of one year or less, the law allows for police officers to issue citations or tickets in lieu of arrest. In these situations, you will be given a ticket with a court date requiring your appearance.
Drug Crimes
There is nothing routine about drug charges in Nebraska. In fact, the law is written to make practically all drug crimes felonies. Your future and freedom depend on what you do after you have been arrested. Your first step should be to contact a drug crime lawyer to aggressively and sensibly defend you. Call today to learn more.
Assault
Like every state, Nebraska has its own laws criminalizing acts of domestic violence. Domestic violence is a form of assault that can involve many types of conduct. Further, assault will qualify as â€œdomestic assaultâ€ if the alleged victim is any of the following...
Murder
Murder and manslaughter are closely related crimes. The distinction between the two crimes, however, is in the mental condition of the perpetrator. When someone kills another person knowingly, and after careful consideration, they have committed murder. Some may argue that the distinction between murder and voluntary manslaughter depends on whether or not the victim had enough time to â€œcool offâ€ before the killing.
Homicide
Vehicular homicide occurs when a person other than the driver loses their life due to either a murderous or criminally negligent use of a motor vehicle. The defendant is frequently prosecuted with unintentional vehicular manslaughter in circumstances of criminal negligence.
Kidnapping
Self-defense that reaches the level of using deadly force in Nebraska is also permitted if you think you are protecting yourself or another individual from dying, serious injury, rape, or kidnapping. However, if you could retreat to avoid the danger, deadly force isnâ€™t justified under the law. The one exception is if it is your home or place of work and another person is the first aggressor.
Manslaughter
In Nebraska, there are several types of felony assault. The most serious charge is first-degree assault. A defendant can be convicted of first-degree assault when they knowingly or intentionally cause serious bodily injury to another person. There is no statutory definition of serious bodily injury. Rather, the jury is free to consider on their own whether the victim has suffered a serious injury. In addition, the jury can also convict someone of first-degree assault even if they do not act with malice. Finally, a defendant can be charged with first-degree assault alongside other serious crimes, such as manslaughter.
Hit and Run

Property Damage

Personal Injury
In recent years, the Nebraska legislature changed the law regarding hit-and-run offenses. A primary reason for the change was to punish persons who avoid a DUI by leaving the scene of the accident. There are two types of leaving the scene cases-those involving property damage only and those involving personal injury. If you are accused of leaving the scene of a personal injury accident, you could be charged with a class IIIA felony (0-5 years/1-15 year license revocation) if the accident did not cause serious bodily injury or a class III felony (1-20 years/1-15 year license revocation) if the accident resulted in serious bodily injury or death. If you are accused of leaving the scene of a property damage accident, you face up to six months in jail for a first offense and one year in jail for a second offense as well as a potential one-year revocation of your license. The penalties for hit-and-run cases have become much more severe and you need to take these charges seriously if you are accused of leaving the scene of an accident.
