In 2011, Pesek Law as we know it now did not yet exist. I was a young lawyer, fluent in Spanish, who believed in my community and the restorative power of justice. The legal scene in South Omaha at the time was marred by unethical practices. People thought they were getting help\u2013they were desperately trying to pay for that help\u2013and they were just being scammed by those who should have known better.<\/p>\n

I saw people struggling with really simple things. Because they had immigrated to the United States, language was a barrier. Finances were a barrier. Families in my community were suffering and I didn\u2019t believe it had to be that way.<\/p>\n

I also believed I could make a difference.<\/p>\n

That year marked the beginning of the free legal clinic that has now been going strong for more than 12 years. Located in the parish offices of Our Lady of Guadalupe Church at 23rd and O Streets, the clinic is just a stone\u2019s throw from our law office in the heart of South Omaha. Every Monday night, from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. (though volunteers often stay late to meet with everyone who comes), our doors are open to all on a first-come, first-serve basis.<\/p>\n

The setting is humble, but the services rendered can be life-changing. Our attorneys, all Spanish speakers, offer consultations to every person seeking guidance on a variety of topics.<\/p>\n
