The absolute BEST thing about working with this team was I didn’t get a hint of anything but concern for MY needs. They provided an even keeled, business minded, non-emotional approach to address those needs. I went for something to get done and it’s done. What a weight off my shoulders. What a relief. I left smiling. You might be worried to establish the “What Happens If”
paperwork, but boy do they make it easy, it’s all set in stone, and you’ve made the decisions. I highly recommend this firm. They just listen, ask enough questions to get the right information, then say Here it is, here’s what you are asking for.

Worked with Jim and he made the process of creating a will very easy and efficient. I would strongly recommend his firm to anyone who needs to have to have a will done.

Estate planning is very important. I recommend that you go see Blazek and Gregg. Both the attorneys and staff are nice and friendly. I enjoy stopping in, grabbing a cup of coffee, and talking about estate planning.

You should speak with a professional about Estate Planning and you should speak with a good Estate Planning attorney. That attorney would be Jim Blazek. He listens and goes above and beyond to understand your situation and meet your needs.

My wife and I met with Paul and had a quick meeting over a basic will. Paul was personable, insightful, and thoughtful in how he handled the whole process. As someone who has never gone through creating a will, it was a simple process for us. For that, I am grateful for Paul and recommend him to anyone!

I highly recommend this law firm. I have met with them approximately 5 times over the past year. Every time, I have been amazed at the quality of representation I have received. Jim Blazek is THE most knowledgeable estate attorney in Nebraska. He is also just a really nice person. The process of setting up a trust was very easy and inexpensive. Even a simple will is super affordable. Please call them to explore your options. I have referred several people to them already.

I am treated respectfully & feel like my estate is important to them. It's always a pleasant experience to visit their office & know that my trust is up-to-date. Everything is explained in terms that I can understand. I would recommend them to anyone who needs estate planning. I especially like how farmers & their assets are protected through estate planning.

Jarrod provided us with excellent service. He took the time to explain all aspects of the estate planning process and the various options to consider in establishing out Trust. He made sure he understood our needs, desires and objectives and that our Trust met those criteria. We would highly recommend Blazek & Gregg to anyone seeking estate planning expertise.

Trustworthy, Knowledgeable, Patient (and my wife says to add friendly)

Integrity was my primary desired trait when selecting an Estate planning attorney. This was important to me because I will likely not be present when the results of their work are truly evaluated.

I had been watching Jim for several years after a friend, and former employee of Jim had shared how they admired him as an employer. And I later had the opportunity to personally get to know Jim when he showed up to volunteer his personal time as a leader at a local childrens club that I was leading. This gave me a chance to observe Jim's interactions with people outside the office; and with my own children that will be using his teams services in the future. He showed the upmost integrity, patience and care for everyone he worked with. This cemented my decision to set up an appointment with the Estate Planning Law Group of Blazek & Gregg.

In our first meeting Jim patiently answered our questions related to the difference between Trusts vs Wills. He did this in a friendly manner that helped us evaluate near and long term needs. He highlighted potential situations that I had not thought to consider. For example, he asked What we wanted to happen to a child's inheritance as progress through their stages of life (e.g. marriage and potential divorce).

With a plan identified, their team started the daunting task of creating the legalese and arranging it all in a nice tabbed binder that will help future readers identify sections of interest. Their paralegals then worked to submit beneficiary updates to all of my banks, investment firms, and insurance providers. Throughout the process - understand it is a process, their entire staff was very helpful and accommodating.

Although cost was a primary consideration in selecting their group, subsequent research showed that their fees are in line with other attorney's in the area.

Overall I highly recommend the Estate Planning Law Group of Blazek & Gregg and if anything changes I'll be sure to update my post.

Worked with Paul Blazek to set up a will for my family and kids. Was wonderful to work with and had a perfect idea of what we were looking for.

Thanks Paul!

We have been clients for 5 years. We have a great sense of peace because we have things in order when we are gone. Blazek & Gregg reach out to us every year so we don't overlook any changes that may affect our trust. They also host informational seminars keeping their clients apprised of changes in estate laws. We are in very good hands!

After receiving dead end after dead end in attempting to get an attorney's input and help I went and spoke with Jim Blazek. He was attentive, informative, and was able to complete helping me in less than a week's time. That's what expertise, wisdom, and experience can accomplish quickly. Mr. Blazek is likable and efficient. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing an attorney in the field of Estate Planning, Wills, and Trusts.

I had a very specific requirement I was looking for in an attorney. That requirement was effective, understandable communication when discussing my estate planning needs. Mr. Blazek has a respectful demeanor. He encouraged questions. But, the best part was when I didn't understand something, he explained the concept several different ways which also included an example. His approach of taking the planning stages step by step being very careful not to overwhelm me with legal jargon. That type of approach was extremely appreciated. His office personnel are professional, but the office has an atmosphere of home town friendliness. He created my estate portfolio exactly the way I wanted it.

After reading several well written books on Wills and Trusts, the advantages of creating a Trust was clear. My long time lawyer said he would put together a Trust, but implied that Trusts really weren't his "thing." Realizing that I wouldn't hire a plumber to do electrical work, I Googled, Estate Planning Omaha. The Blazek Group came up and after reading multiple reviews, they seemed like a good choice. A simple call and the nice lady set me up with an appointment with Paul Blazek. I would soon find out that it wasn't a good choice...it was a fantastic choice. My wife and I met with Paul Blazek. Paul is a great, young lawyer. He is friendly, smart, and does a wonderful job of clearly explaining the direction all Trust documents should take as the Trust is created. He not only covered all the standard examples listed in all the books I read about Trusts, he went into even greater detail. His foresight on writing up a great Trust will save us time, money, and unexpected hardships in the future. My wife and I were so impressed with Paul and job he did for us. Once prepared, our Trust documents were presented in a large binder, printed in easy to read font type, and organized carefully. Most documents like this are like reading Russian, but everything was clear and understandable. Paul went over each section carefully and made sure we were happy with his work. I have had lots of legal work done over the years, but I give Paul Blazek, Blazek Estate Planning Law Group, my highest recommendation.

I was happy to have walked into a bank to take care of a safety deposit box for a relative and what would have likely been a long process was simple because I had the proper power of attorney documentation. The banker was surprised because that wasn’t the case for most people. Blazek and Gregg does a great job keeping us up to date on changing laws and strategies. The firm also works with us frequently to keep our plan up to date and keep it tailored to our goals throughout different stages of our lives.

Having my estate plan done is a relief. I’m glad I have a plan in place and I made my plan with the estate planning law group Of Blazek and Gregg where my family can come when I pass away. I’m happy that it’s done so I no longer have to worry about what would have happened without a plan. The process was expedient and the fact that I can call and ask questions whenever I need to is a big plus. Estate planning is a gift for my family and using a trust to transfer my assets to my family is a gift in itself because I know my family is in charge.

After carefully considering our estate plan my wife and I decided to create a trust to shelter and secure our wishes for our estate. Since Jim Blasek was recommended by our financial planner, we contacted him for more information. Jim sat down with us and went over many different options and gathering information so that he could make the recommend the best solution for us. When we were done examining all of the options, we were sure that what he recommended would be a good match for our wishes. When the documents were drawn up, we met again and we covered each part of the document thoroughly so that, again, we were well versed on its contents. Afterwords, he even volunteered to meet with our daughter so she would understand it. We are very pleased with his work. I can't believe anyone could do it better.

Jerrod Gregg was the most ignorant attorney I've ever met. Once he sold and costed my parents thousands of dollars, he wont return a single phone call and when we finally checked his credentials (should have before) we discovered he's had several complaints against him. It's just a hard shame we got scammed. DO NOT TRUST THIS MAN.
