Berry Law Firm - Lincoln, NE
Battle-Tested Legal Representation
Berry Law Firm is a nationally recognized legal practice with deep roots in Lincoln, Nebraska. Founded in 1965 by John Stevens Berry Sr., the firm has grown from a local criminal defense practice into a formidable powerhouse known for fighting for veterans and the accused. The firm's motto, ”Battle Tested,” reflects its culture; many of the attorneys are military veterans who bring the same discipline, dedication, and aggression to the courtroom that they brought to their service. While the firm operates on a national scale for federal veterans' law, it remains a steadfast defender of Nebraskans facing criminal charges or suffering from personal injuries.
Veterans Disability Law
Berry Law is perhaps best known for its unwavering commitment to Veterans Disability appeals. They represent veterans nationwide who have been denied service-connected disability benefits by the VA. The team understands the bureaucracy of the Department of Veterans Affairs and fights tirelessly to ensure that those who served receive the compensation they were promised. From PTSD claims to physical injuries sustained in combat, the firm's attorneys-many of whom have navigated the system themselves-provide empathetic and effective advocacy for their brothers and sisters in arms.
Criminal Defense
In Nebraska, Berry Law Firm is a premier choice for Criminal Defense. They handle a wide array of cases, including DUI/DWI Defense, drug offenses, white-collar crimes, and serious felonies. The firm's defense philosophy is proactive; they do not wait for the prosecution to dictate the terms of the case. Instead, they conduct independent investigations, challenge constitutional violations, and rigorously cross-examine witnesses. Their goal is to protect the client's freedom, reputation, and future, understanding that a criminal charge can have lifelong consequences.
- DUI Defense: Aggressive challenges to traffic stops and chemical testing procedures.
- Drug Crimes: Defending against possession and distribution charges in state and federal courts.
- Sex Crimes: providing discreet and vigorous defense against serious allegations.
Personal Injury Litigation
The firm also maintains a strong Personal Injury practice, representing individuals injured in car accidents, truck collisions, and other incidents of negligence. They take on insurance companies that seek to undervalue claims, fighting for full compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. The firm's trial experience is a significant asset here; because insurance carriers know that Berry Law is willing to go to court, they are often more inclined to offer fair settlements. Whether fighting a criminal charge or a VA denial, Berry Law Firm stands as a relentless advocate for the underdog.
