"I don't judge you, I don't lecture you, I defend you." - Tom Petersen

Since then, we have successfully represented over six thousand clients. We remain dedicated to helping people achieve excellent outcomes to their DUI charge in both Omaha and Sarpy County, Nebraska.

In 1991, Tom began his legal training at Creighton University's School of Law in Omaha, Nebraska. Three years later, Tom received his Juris Doctorate, and graduated Cum Laude from Creighton. Tom was a member of, and the Parliamentarian of, Phi Delta Phi, America's oldest legal fraternity.
