We Are Your Advocates at Every Step

We believe that access to justice is a fundamental right and our clients deserve unconditional advocacy and support. When the entire legal system appears to be against you, you can count on McGoughLaw P.C. L.L.O. to fight for you. If there is an argument to be made on your behalf, we will make it. If there is a piece of evidence that helps your case, we will find it.

This commitment extends beyond trial advocacy — we approach every case from a place of trust and a presumption that our clients are good people. We care about your success and freedom as much as you do.

Given our record of success in trial and our position as leaders in sex crimes defense, we frequently assist other law firms. If you are an attorney representing someone in a complex criminal matter, we encourage you to contact us to learn more about how we can help.

Our Entire Team Is Dedicated to Your Case

Most law firms assign a case to a single lawyer or small team. But when you hire our firm, we do not hand you off to a single lawyer. Instead, you have a whole team working on your defense. Every member of our team knows what is happening with your case, so if you call to ask a question, you get an answer quickly instead of waiting for your attorney to call you back.

Taking a team approach also lets us view your case from every angle, gaining important insight from every perspective. We use this information to create a strong defense strategy that is appealing to judges and jury pools, increasing our chances of obtaining a not guilty verdict or a reduction or dismissal of your charges.

Before trial, our entire team, including assistants and administrative staff, get together to review the case. Often, the non-attorneys at our firm give us the most valuable insight into what a jury may think of a case. Our record of success at trial is due partly to our willingness to consider all angles and take the team's opinions into account.

Let our team get to work for you. Please contact our Omaha criminal defense attorneys at (402) 614-8655.

    “Don't look any further than McGough Law Firm if you want the best!!!”
    I was recently accused and charges pressed against myself in a case that would make any man, woman or child cringe. My family and myself did plenty of research with one GOAL in mind. We had to have the BEST!! Through research and an overwhelming number of different individuals suggestions Mr. Jim McGough was what many, many and now my family and myself found to be the best Attorney anywhere to help me in my case as I was an innocent disabled man facing almost indefinite prison time. Mr. Mcgough met with us and created a plan on our first visit. We gladly payed the initial representation fee and off he went!! Within a matter 3 months or less Mr. McGough and his law firm team Diligently and Aggressively reached a COMPLETE DISMISSAL of my CHARGES. I can't say that every case works out as well and or as quick as mine did, but I will tell the world right now, IF YOU FIND YOURSELF IN A SITUATION WHERE YOU NEED HELP AND YOU NEED THE BEST!! PLEASE LOOK NO FURTHER THAN McGOUGH LAW FIRM!!! Why waste your precious time in said situations looking elsewhere? The best way I can put it is like a man named Bill Moos said when he hired Scott Frost as our Nebraska Corn Huskers new Head Coach. His reputation and name strikes fear in the Best of the competition!! Make the right choice when your life is in danger!! McGOUGHLaw p.c. L.L.o. # 1 attorney in the great state of Nebraska!! Thank You Jim and Team for proof to anyone of your EXCELLENCE and QUALITY of work!! Last but not least when you retain Mr. McGOUGH as your attorney he has Relationships with the BEST of the BEST Attorneys in other more Specific Areas in which I am currently working with and am here to tell you in all honesty, his suggestion and reference to my Attorney in other matters lives up 100% to what I received when I retained Mr. McGOUGH previously. In these situations TIME and a QUALITY ATTORNEY is detrimental!! McGOUGHLaw #1!!!
