Glad he was on my side. He is a man among men. The entire process was as comforting as can be when lawyers are needed. Truly humble to his clients and a bull to everyone not. You will not find a more knowledgeable person in this field than Matt. My case was a tough one but one he was able to get done outside of the courtroom. So, hats off to you Matt. Keep it up. You are helping people with a better quality of life. My family is better for knowing you. Anyone looking for one of the greats to watch over you, give Matt Higgins a call.
Higgens law is the best there is he won my divorce case he won custody of my child he has gotten me everything I had asked him to. The entire staff at Higgins law is awesome you will not find anyone any better anywhere else every single person working at Higgins law is honest respectful hard-working And without a doubt they get the job done and do it well.
The title says it all! Mr. Higgins is a very knowledgeable and precise attorney. He knew just what needed to be done to get the results I wanted.
I retained Matt Higgins for my divorce based on his reputation as a fair, reasonable, and respectful lawyer among family lawyers in Nebraska. He communicated well during the entire process, clearly explained each step, and carefully outlined my options and possible outcomes. He also gave candid, practical advice based on his extensive experience with the Nebraska judicial system and consistently advised against actions that would feel good emotionally (as well as increase his billable hours) but accomplish nothing in the long run. I highly recommend retaining Matt if you are willing to set aside emotion and follow advice that is the most likely to get a reasonable outcome (in my experience, no one forced to go through the judicial system is ever completely happy) without needlessly increasing the cost of your divorce.
I hired Matt for my daughter who was experiencing a very traumatic time with her ex husband. Matt's experience, knowledge and court room skills enabled him to win both times in court! Matt is the most honest, sincere and decent attorney I have ever met! I recommend him to everyone! In fact Matt has remained our friend and that should say alot about how we feel about him!
As a father, being divorced from a drug addict, I needed an attorney who would fight for my parental rights. Matt not only excelled there, but in all issues in the case. A little costly because I live in Lincoln and paid travel expenses, but well worth it. My exes attorney would spend hours arguing one point and Matt Prevailed in minutes of rebuttal. Very professional, well versed in the law, and well liked by the Judge. No doubt in my mind, If not for Matt, I would have paid Child support and alimony to a drug addict.
Matt Higgins served me in an exceptional manner with regard to some difficult family law matters. Perhaps he should be dual-hatted as both an attorney and counselor because he not only handled my case with confidence and success, but he also calmed my shaken nerves regarding what I was facing. Matt is one of those very rare commodities, an talented, winning attorney who still has a heart for people. I highly recommend him.
To say that Matt is the epitomy of a professional attorney would be an understatement. This man has demonstrated his knowledge, empathy, and passion as an attorney for me on a few different occasions when I've required his services, over the past 10 years. Each time I've called on him, he has remembered details of my case that even I had forgotten, and has done such an amazing job of counseling me, on several occasions, to achieve the end goal of our case. The fact that we won every time I've used Matt just goes to show the end results are worth the price you pay. I will be forever grateful for Matt for the help that he has given me through the years.
From the beginning of my case Matt and his office made me feel comfortable that things were going to be ok and gave great advice. Was always able to reach someone in the office when I had a question and if unanswered at the time always received the answer in a short time period.
Higgins Law is the best divorce/family law firm in Omaha. Mr. Higgins was patient, controlled, respectful, organized, efficient, offered correct legal advice, and had a strategy for representing me. He not only counseled me what we should do but also in the things “not to do,” which not only saved money but also saved me from agreeing to things I didn't want but felt pressured by my ex to. Family law deals with very personal issues and Mr. Higgins was exceptional at putting me at ease and making feel prepared and well represented. Their reputation in this area is that they are among the best. If you are looking to be treated respectfully and represented competently, Higgins Law is an excellent choice.
