My practice focuses upon estate and tax planning for farmers, ranchers, owners of closely held businesses and professional practices. I provide an integrated legal and tax advice and counsel. I was born and raised in rural Southwestern Nebraska, where my great grandfathers homesteaded and I participate in this legacy by managing our family farm partnership, operating irrigated farmland and ranch property with crop share tenants. This background combined with my 30 years of law practice brings depth and understanding to my agricultural clients.
