  • Uncontested Divorces - not involving children or real estate

  • Landlord and tenant disputes 

  • Small Claims Court appeals & removals

For cases needing court representation, SLS attorneys can only represent you in courts in Lancaster County (Nebraska). 

Unfortunately, we cannot assist or represent you with:

  • Bankruptcies
  • Contested Divorces
  • Felonies
  • Personal Injury lawsuits
  • Automobile accidents 
  • Real estate transactions

Although we are unable to represent you in these matters, you are invited to meet with a SLS attorney to discuss your legal options and receive advice + referrals.

Also, SLS attorneys will not appear in court outside of Lancaster County (Nebraska).
