Testimonials
"We understand that there are many options for legal representation. We feel honored every time we have the opportunity to work with a client. Thank you for trusting us!"
-Jodie McGill
“As a professional mediator and attorney, Theresa Loughran brings a common sense, down-to-earth approach when working with both parties. She has a straightforward style and can adapt to the personalities and preferred communication styles of her clients. We used Theresa to navigate through the child custody agreement and a year and a half later she successfully helped settle a two-year divorce stalemate. Theresa brought a thoughtful approach of listening to both parties, understanding the goals of each, then working with each party in a non-biased, non-emotional, business approach while applying her years of experience to have frank discussions with both sides while offending neither and helping reach an acceptable agreement.I would recommend using Theresa Loughran and McGill Law for any couple working through child custody and the division of assets and personal items because of divorce. ”
“Jodie is knowledgable and has extraordinary expertise in advising me with my legal rights personally and professionally with my business. She has an excellent business background and I felt comfortable that she understood my complex situation. Jodie was reasonable with her negotiations and I always felt she worked in the best interest of me and my family. I felt fully supported and protected throughout this process. She allowed for a peaceful and fair resolution during a most difficult time.”
“Jodie and the entire firm made me feel so calm and comfortable. The office is a such a peaceful place when you’re going through something hard. The staff were all so responsive. When Jodie couldn’t answer me, someone else always responded. They have a comprehensive legal package of resources that helped me understand the process and stay organized. Jodie was a FIERCE advocate for me. When I unfortunately ended up going to litigation, Jodie was organized, persistent, thorough, and highly intelligent. I felt so protected! I give the highest of all recommendations to Jodie McGill and the entire Nebraska Collaborative.”

“I went through a bitter divorce that took about 2 years. We recently went to court for a contempt hearing and Sarah was so experienced in the courtroom and we finally can say everything is resolved. Sarah was my cheerleader (office ladies too) and I am so impressed at what she accomplished for me! I would HIGHLY recommend Sarah to anyone going through a divorce.”
“I want to extend a hearty thank you Theresa and Deziree. Everyone has been incredibly helpful, even if it was just for a name change. You all made the process so simple for me. You’ve been so helpful with answering all of my questions and really walking me through where to go for my hearing. Theresa really eased my mind that this would be fairly simple and I appreciate her meeting with me and explaining the process. Deziree was incredibly helpful the day of my hearing. She was easy to talk to which really helped my nervousness. Thank you all for the assistance in getting my name change processed. It feels really great to have my maiden name back. ”

“I am extremely pleased with the work these ladies put in. My case load was rather large and they came in late to the game. Jodie and Dezi were so very thorough in reading and understanding everything included in my file. Erica also worked behind the scenes on my case file. These three ladies were understanding of my needs, and so very supportive. They all represented me well and made me feel safe and comfortable with my situation. I could not recommend anyone more. I also would like to add that even when walking into the firm, you are greeted warmly, and with no judgement. Jodie and the entire team are simply the best!”
“Thorough and CompassionateTheresa is an amazing attorney and human. I am so grateful for her expertise and care for both my case and me. At our first face-to-face meeting, she listened intently to my story and concerns, and I felt heard, seen, and understood. The very qualities that I value in all relationships. I was able to focus my time and energy on finding my independence and peace knowing I could move forward in my life. Theresa worked thoughtfully and transparently to ensure a fair, equitable, and dignified end to our 15-year marriage. I highly recommend Theresa and any of the lawyers practicing in the law firm of McGill Law to affirm and advocate for clients in a gentle kind manner. I am deeply grateful. ”
“Sarah Barnhill did a fantastic job helping me through my divorce. With what was supposed to be a quick amicable divorce turned into a longer drawn out one because of the opposing attorney. Throughout the process Sarah kept me informed and updated on everything and made everything as smooth as possible. (Sarah) was a great advocate for me to make sure that I was getting what I deserved and needed and not just agreeing to what the opposing party requested. She went above and beyond for me. I couldn’t of asked for a better attorney to help through a stressful time. I highly recommend her!”
“Jodie was amazing and professional. She helped me with everything I needed and took time to answer all of my questions. I would recommend her to anyone.”

“I was devastated when I was going through the divorce (5 years ago now—hard to believe) and I still am at times I believe. None of it made/makes much sense. But I think how it was handled was correct and I thank you for guiding me through it. I am proud of how things were settled. ”
“God has blessed these women to take on and are very knowledgeable. I am very confident in them and with no doubt will I question. I am happy and glad to say I recommend this law firm with confidence!.”
“Divorce is by its nature an incredibly stressful and emotional experience. The McGill team was so patient, calm, and impartial throughout the mediation process. They did an amazing job of minimizing those stressful and emotional moments and created an environment where both sides were able to focus on our families, have some closure, and move forward with making the rest of our days, the best of our days.”
“Courtney was great. I appreciate your firm. I felt I was in the right place when I saw a “Black Lives Matter” sign as I approached the door, (showing your compassion for others). Thanks again, and please tell Courtney, “Thank you. I’m in a better place. “”
“Jodie was so great. She always had my best interests at heart and did a wonderful job of fighting for my child support and well being. She was great at getting around my ex’s negativity to get the job done right for me. I am very happy I was referred to her. She made sure I was well taken care of. Thank you Jodie! ”
“Compassionate, Knowledgeable & ReliableWhen my partner and I decided it was time for us to divorce, we worried a lot about what the process would look like. We had both only ever seen angry, contentious, and mean divorces where the partners’ resentment grew and feelings were hurt over and over. That just wasn’t us. We wanted support in splitting marital assets and completing the legal paperwork, but we didn’t want to fight over every dollar or piece of furniture. Jodie McGill provided just that to me. The collaborative divorce model allowed my partner and me to remain civil and even friendly throughout the process. That said, Jodie spoke up for me at a moment when I was second guessing myself in terms of what I deserved as part of the arrangement. Jodie is a great partner for couples who are looking for a smooth transition of their relationship from spouses to friends. ”
“This was my first experience with McGill Lawyers, I used them because I had worked with Jodie McGill years ago on a professionally related case. I contacted Jodie McGill to get assistance with changing my name, the attorney assigned to me was Sara Barnhill and she was very professional, personable, extremely detailed and cared about me as a person. I wasn’t just a client, she and Jodie both tried to get to know me on a one to one basis. I highly recommend McGill Lawyers to handle your legal case, I know I will be using them in the future if I need an attorney. ”
“I went through a divorce in the last two years and it has been the most horrific thing I’ve ever experienced. I really didn’t have anyone I know who had been through the process or that could help me along the way.Luckily, I had a wonderful attorney who made it easier on me; Theresa Loughran. The women in this firm are absolute angels.”
“I am so Thankful that I had Courtney representing me through a modification. She is very knowledgeable and truly cares about you and your case. Courtney is compassionate and was so easy to talk to. She always made me feel at ease when times would get difficult. I really appreciate and highly recommend Courtney!”
“I chose a collaborative divorce after attending a meeting about the process. I thought it was best to keep our children out of the process and not have a judge make the decisions for our children that we could make. Jodie was then recommended to me by a friend. Divorce is an ugly process, but Jodie guided me well in making the decisions that needed to be made and kept the process on track, without pushing me. She would suggest taking a break from the process if needed. Hashing things out at the meetings with the ex and his attorney are not easy, Jodie knew when I was upset and would call me afterwards to talk things through, explain things to me, and sometimes get me to look at things differently. From the first four way meeting to the signing of the decree, it was a five month process. I would highly recommend Jodie for this divorce process. She is very professional, knowledgeable, efficient, and understanding.”
“Courtney was an absolute blessing to work with. I had to make some tough decisions on behalf of a beloved family member. Courtney went above and beyond handling our case. She was not only a remarkable attorney but a genuine caring supportive ear during a very important decision making time in our families live. Jodie McGill Law Offices will always remain on the top of my list as family law attorneys for myself and referral to others needing the exceptional awesome services they provide me and my family with. We Thank God for you and your professional trustworthy attorney services!!!”
“I would highly recommend Atty. Jodie McGill’s office represent me 100 times over if need be. My dad passed away without a will and we were very shocked that one had been filed in his name and we were able to prove that it was not his handwriting or signature, thanks to Atty. Jodie McGill!! Her entire office was very pleasant, caring and trustworthy! If I had questions they always explained and was very thorough. I can’t say enough great things about them!! Definitely will send friends & family their way!”

I really am grateful to Courtney and her straight forward answers and thoughts regarding my case. Overall, this firm made a stressful situation much more bearable.”
“I am absolutely grateful that Jodie was my lawyer for our collaborative divorce. My ex even pointed out how she was always on the ball, in contrast to his experience. Jodie exudes an absolute level of integrity and was committed to the collaborative efforts throughout- which is important to have as a guiding influence with all the emotions of a divorce. We can now look back and say that we are proud of the way we treated each other and proud of our efforts to do what was right and best for our son. Her staff is equally accountable and responsive with all needs (and updates) during the process. Jodie earned my complete trust early on, which helped relieve my stress since I knew she was exceedingly competent and had our best interests at heart. Obviously, I am very grateful for Jodie and the team and enthusiastically recommend them without hesitation!”
“Courtney helped me navigate through the tricky and what turned out to be very hostile process of my parenting plan modification. She was compassionate, knowledgeable and very passionate about my case. I felt I was always able to reach out with any issue or question I had and when things got tense she would step in and not only explain to me exactly how things were but also the appropriate steps to take in order to accomplish what needed to be done. She was very patient and listened to what I had to say, which put me at ease and in the end I was able to reach an amicable solution to what started out as a very hostile disagreement based on the parenting modification that was in question. Thank you Courtney for all your help!!!”
“Divorce is never easy, but the process could not have gone more smoothly with Jodie as my representation. She works closely with everyone involved and I always felt like she had my best interest as her priority.”
“Divorces can typically bring out the worst in people, which is something that we wanted to avoid, as we knew it wouldn’t only hurt us but also our children. We chose to do a collaborative divorce with the help of our amazing lawyers and counselors , this made this process so smooth and helped us gain a better understanding how to handle divorce and co parent in a positive way. We want to provide a healthy, consistent parental relationship for our children to learn from, and going the route of a collaborative divorce guided us towards meeting that goal. It is not always easy and requires a great deal of honesty at a time when that might be difficult to provide, but the process worked for us. Jodie and Theresa were there every step of the way for us with insight, understanding, and support. Thank you to the McGill Law Firm!”
