Estate Planning
Wills
Power of Attorney
The Estate Planning and Probate practice group at Locher Pavelka Dostal Braddy & Hammes, LLC serves the needs of individuals, families and businesses throughout Nebraska and Iowa, and is led by an attorney who has earned a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) license (currently inactive). Our experienced attorneys prepare comprehensive estate plans tailored to individual and family needs that are designed for todayâ€™s changing tax environment. We work closely withâ€”and often advise and representâ€”fiduciaries such trustees, guardians, conservators, personal representatives, executors, and administrators to protect the interests of those individuals who require court-supervised assistance in their personal or financial affairs. We assist our clients in protecting, transferring and valuing possessions and to preserve their dignity through wills, trusts, powers of attorney (including powers of attorney for healthcare), and thoughtful advanced directives to family and healthcare providers. Throughout this process we routinely work closely with our clientâ€™s accountants, bankers and other financial advisors.
Probate

Finance Law

Bankruptcy
Foreclosure
Our attorneys also represent clients throughout Nebraska and Iowa in foreclosure proceedings which require specialized handling and experience for each state, as Nebraska is primarily a non-judicial foreclosure state, whereas Iowa is a judicial foreclosure state. Additionally, we assist clients in handling deeds in lieu of foreclosures and short sales for properties located in both Nebraska and Iowa.
Tax Law
Effective estate planning helps you to pass your valuable belongings on to your loved ones or other intended beneficiaries through clear directives and sound tax planning. Such planning can benefit families of modest wealth as well as those who have been blessed with substantial assets. The failure to properly prepare and implement estate plans can result in unnecessary tax and other unfavorable financial consequences, tremendous stress on loved ones and friends, and in some cases, deep fractures of once dear relationships. Where businesses are involved, the adverse effects of poor or no succession planning can reach far beyond those who own the business to employees, customers, and suppliers. There is no single answer, no cookie-cutter formula, that works well for everyone. That is why our attorneys take the time to understand our clients' wishes and craft documents tailored to each clientâ€™s particular circumstances.
Debt Collection
The attorneys in this group are experienced in defending financial institutions in all phases of litigation and against a variety of legal theories, including lender liability, wrongful foreclosure, compliance with the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, compliance with Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act and other Federal and State consumer credit laws.
