TIGHE LAW WEBSITE
I am a criminal defense lawyer licensed in Nebraska and Iowa. My practice handles criminal cases (both Felony and Misdemeanors) in Eastern Nebraska (Omaha, Douglas County, Sarpy County, Washington County, Dodge County, Platte County, Saunders County, Lancaster County, Cass County and surrounding areas) and Western Iowa (Pottawattamie County, Mills County, Monona County, Woodbury County, Harrison County and surrounding areas).
If you have been charged with ANY CRIME in the Sate of Nebraska or Iowa, you need an experienced criminal defense attorney.
In this blog, I will NOT be discussing defenses, discovery, pre-trial motions, police reports, possible civil penalties, “no contest” pleas, or other such information. That information requires an in-depth consultation. Wherein we will be discussing your particular case in intricate detail and formulating a comprehensive defensive strategy to attack the charges against you.
