Omaha, NE – Smith Slusky Law has added Omaha Attorney Wayne Rasmussen and Jacob Acers
to its ranks, building an even stronger presence in the real estate law
arena. Rasmussen brings more than 35 years experience to the firm, with
real estate and business law as two of his main areas of practice.
Acers is building his practice in business and contract law.
“While
Smith Slusky Law has expertise in a wide variety of practice areas,
we’re really seeing growth in our business and real estate practices,”
says Senior Partner Dan Smith, “so Wayne and Jacob will make a great additions to the team.”
Rasmussen
also brings in-depth knowledge and legal experience in estate planning
and probate in business, personal and agricultural, which are areas
Smith Slusky Law can utilize in the general practice side of the firm.
"We are excited to welcome Jacob to the team," says Clay Rogers, "having new practice builders in the firm is exciting."
"While
industry reports show the business end of operating a legal practice
has increased in complexity often to the point where it’s possible to
spend as much time running the business as servicing the client," Senior Partner Jerry Slusky
says, "that is not the case at Smith Slusky Law. To keep things simple,
each attorney manages their own book of business while sharing overhead
and resources. Consequently, each seasoned, accomplished attorney has
more time for substantive client contact and advocacy."
The
significant advantage of this model versus many smaller firms and sole
practitioners, according to Slusky, is that each individual attorney at
Smith Slusky has the ability to collaborate with their peers, and
marshal the resources of the entire firm on behalf of their client. “We
feel very fortunate to have an opportunity to incorporate such best
practices in serving our clients,” says Slusky, “and bringing both Jacob
Acers and Wayne Rasmussen —along with the addition of Real Estate Attorney Tom McLeay last year—is making Smith Slusky Law stronger than ever and will no doubt provide an even better future for the firm.”
