Testimonials:

"I hired Mr. Younes to represent me, as I sought circumstances that might better serve my childrens' best interests in a child custody case. His extensive knowledge and poise provided me with great comfort in a very tumultuous time in my life. Francis is extremely careful and considerate, a patient and excellent listener, and a strong communicator. When there were things I didn't quite get, he was diligent in putting those things into terms I could understand easily. He walked me through this entire process with unparalleled transparency and candor. His advise was always linear, logical, fair and balanced, and kept me looking towards the bigger picture. Our case was settled on amicable terms that favor our children, and all things considered, I am very pleased with the outcome. Mr. Younes is worth every penny, and I would highly recommend him and his firm to anyone looking to hire counsel for their child custody case.  "

"I never felt just like a client to him. I felt that he treated me like how he would treated one of his family members. Thanks Frank! I will definitely refer you to everyone I know. "

"I called to ask for a second opinion regarding my divorce case. To my surprise, Frank answered the phone. He spent 25 min on the phone with me answering my questions as best he could without knowing my case entirely. He was honest, and up front that he could not give me a second opinion due to the fact that he did not have all my documents to look over. What he did do was inform me enough to know that what I am being advised in my case, is probably the course to continue with. I was looking for a little advice to help me know that I am making the right decisions. What I got was more than that. If he spent this much time with a stranger that hasn't paid him, I can't imagine how much time he would take with a paying customer. If I am ever in Omaha and find myself needing a lawyer, I will be calling Frank again! "

At court Frank impressed me on how well prepared he was and we ended up winning the case! He was always there to answer any questions I had. I want to say thanks to Frank not just for winning my case but also for taking the time to answer all my questions and making me fill like I was his only client.

Frank is a thoughtful and skilled trial attorney. He really listens to his clients and gives his full attention to every case he takes on.

When interviewing for my lawyer, I take a few things into consideration. How educated are they in my area of interest, am I truly getting their attention, listening to every detail, for a tailored game plan, and are they hungry to get the job done not only for my benefit…but to uphold their good name as well. I found that, and more, when working with Mr. Younes. From contract work to my criminal defense, he had the answer…and if he didn’t…he made sure to find out. There are many discount lawyers out there, but remember you get what you pay for…and if you want a hungry, driven, up and comer with experience in settling million dollar cases…look no further. You’ve found the right guy. I’ve recently moved out of Nebraska but still find it worth my time to refer back to Mr. Younes when issues arise. I appreciate everything he’s done for me and wish, and know, much success is in his future.

From day 1 Frank was able to give me several different options and helped me to choose which course would be best for me in my family law case. Everything was done quickly and without problem. I walked away from court and what seemed like a never ending battle completely satisfied with the outcome. I would recommend Frank and his firm to anyone looking for an attorney who really knows their stuff and cares about their clients.

The amount of time Frank took to understand my situation and have an extensive knowledge of his profession gave me the assurance he could handle any difficult task and take care of his clients.

Frank was professional and understanding. He was able to get me a better result than I ever imagined. I would strongly recommend him to anyone seeking legal assistance.

Frank was amazing to work with! From day one this firm has been nothing but great! Always able to get ahold of Frank and the secretary was always polite and pleasant as well. I transferred from a firm that did nothing but take my money so it was a breath of fresh air to work with professionals who were working and fighting for me!

We moved to Frank after our first lawyer wouldn't respond to our emails or phone calls. Frank did more in the first few days than our previous lawyer had done in five months. He was very responsive to our emails or phone calls. He took a case that was floundering and quickly took it a better direction than the previous lawyer had even suggested. With his direction and wisdom the outcome was far better than we had even imagined it might be. When there were problems with the other party Frank took care of the issue quickly and firmly to keep the process moving.

During the initial consultation he really listened and gave honest advice as we went. He is easy to talk to and to understand. He gets the job done I highly recommend him especially if it's a family law case. he made a lot of good points in court and got the better deal out of what could have happened. With our case. Thank you frank.
