  • “Don't look any further than McGough Law Firm if you want the best!!!”
    I was recently accused and charges pressed against myself in a case that would make any man, woman or child cringe. My family and myself did plenty of research with one GOAL in mind. We had to have the BEST!! Through research and an overwhelming number of different individuals suggestions Mr. Jim McGough was what many, many and now my family and myself found to be the best Attorney anywhere to help me in my case as I was an innocent disabled man facing almost indefinite prison time. Mr. Mcgough met with us and created a plan on our first visit. We gladly payed the initial representation fee and off he went!! Within a matter 3 months or less Mr. McGough and his law firm team Diligently and Aggressively reached a COMPLETE DISMISSAL of my CHARGES. I can't say that every case works out as well and or as quick as mine did, but I will tell the world right now, IF YOU FIND YOURSELF IN A SITUATION WHERE YOU NEED HELP AND YOU NEED THE BEST!! PLEASE LOOK NO FURTHER THAN McGOUGH LAW FIRM!!! Why waste your precious time in said situations looking elsewhere? The best way I can put it is like a man named Bill Moos said when he hired Scott Frost as our Nebraska Corn Huskers new Head Coach. His reputation and name strikes fear in the Best of the competition!! Make the right choice when your life is in danger!! McGOUGHLaw p.c. L.L.o. # 1 attorney in the great state of Nebraska!! Thank You Jim and Team for proof to anyone of your EXCELLENCE and QUALITY of work!! Last but not least when you retain Mr. McGOUGH as your attorney he has Relationships with the BEST of the BEST Attorneys in other more Specific Areas in which I am currently working with and am here to tell you in all honesty, his suggestion and reference to my Attorney in other matters lives up 100% to what I received when I retained Mr. McGOUGH previously. In these situations TIME and a QUALITY ATTORNEY is detrimental!! McGOUGHLaw #1!!!
