Attorneys: Laterals

“Moving from the San Francisco Bay Area with my wife and three small children, I have been delighted to find Omaha as an exciting, growing, changing place, that nonetheless remains genuinely Midwestern in its pace, simplicity and friendliness. I have been equally happy to find that Baird Holm exemplifies these qualities. The thing that strikes me most about Baird Holm perhaps, is the number of people who have worked here for 25 and 30 and 35 years – that speaks volumes about the place and its people.”
David Levy, Land Use Partner, Joined Baird Holm in June 2006 after seven years with a San Francisco firm

“When I decided to come home to Omaha after working for a large multi-national law firm in Washington, D.C., I sought a place to work that would offer me a better quality of life without sacrificing the quality of work produced and the dedication and creativity of the lawyers with whom I would be working. I found this unusual combination in Baird Holm.”

“Changing firms and relocating can be a difficult process, given the demands of private practice and the uncertainty of a new job and a different city. As a lateral, I was familiar with firms in the area and knew the type of practice I wanted to develop. Baird Holm has a reputation as a full service law firm with an experienced group practicing in my area. I have found the Baird Holm environment to be a healthy blend of collegiality and professionalism, fostering personal development and encouraging community involvement, while at the same time maintaining an exceptional level of service to clients.”
