Our family has relied on Tom Workman's counsel for over a decade, and his guidance has been invaluable. When we needed to navigate a complex merger for our local agricultural supply company, his deep experience in corporate law and contracts was immediately apparent. He structured the deal with foresight, protecting our interests while ensuring a smooth transition. More recently, he helped us establish a comprehensive estate plan, utilizing his recognized expertise in trusts to secure our legacy for future generations. What sets Tom apart is his ability to explain intricate legal and tax exemption matters in clear, practical terms. His education from Michigan Law and his decades of general practice experience in Nebraska mean he sees the full picture—from real estate implications to long-term business strategy. As President of his firm, he brings a level of professionalism and personal attention that is truly exceptional. We have achieved outcomes we didn't think were possible, all thanks to his steady, knowledgeable hand.
