In the United States, people and companies owe others a duty of care for the safety of others. When someone is negligent in upholding that duty and they cause injury to someone else, the victim may be able to pursue a personal injury claim against them. In Nebraska, more than 17,000 people are injured in auto accidents every year, and more than 200 are killed.
More than 35,000 people are injured on Nebraska and Iowa roadways every year. More than 500 people lost their lives. Our roads are dangerous places when drivers fail to exercise the duty of care they owe to others. If you or a loved one have been in a car crash, you may be able to garner compensation for damages such as medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and funeral expenses.

Well informed and very supportive
I had a complex case that I could not have navigated without Terry and his team. I was in healthcare while injured and Terry’s knowledge, expertise, and familiarity with what I was experiencing were not only reassuring but spot on. I finally felt understood. With his support and knowledge, I was able to better navigate the healthcare system to meet my needs and ensure improved outcomes. Terry can explain your case from both perspectives and guide you to a decision that is best for you. Those of us who can work with him are very lucky and well represented.

I was in an accident and feeling lost. I did a search and came upon the office of Salerno & Leavitt. Danny listened to my story and said he would like to represent me. I can say he was professional and responsive as well as gave great explanation of everything going on. He gave me his professional opinion and guidance and with that I felt I made the right decision contacting his office. I will say the whole process was long and uncertain at time but Danny stuck with it and got results. I will be happy to refer him and if I ever need him again I know where I am going.

Thanks for standing by with me for 3 years. Such a wild roller coaster with all the setbacks and uncontrollable scenarios. With all your hard work we made it and we’re prosperous. There’s no one else you want, other then Terry representing you in a work comp situation. Wish I would have hired him from the very beginning. Thanks for everything you’ve done, and will continue to do until we are at our end of the road.

I was a client of Terry’s for several years. He was absolutely wonderful to work with! Throughout the entire process he was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and proficient in the legal process, and he always kept me abreast as to what I could expect and what would come next. More importantly, however, he was personable and compassionate. I truly felt he had my and my family’s best interests in mind, wanting to do what was fair, just, and right. I never felt like a number at his office or in working with him. I am extremely grateful for his hard work and support. I would highly recommend

I highly recommend Salerno & Associates. As someone who was injured so young, having the Salerno Law team handle my case was the best choice I could have made. Terry and Danny made sure I was always informed and up to date on any changes that were made, I was never lost throughout the process. I felt like they truly cared for me and my best interests. Anything I needed, any questions... they were always available to take my calls! They are great at what they do!! They were very determined to get fair results. If you need a strong team to take on your case, visit Terry, Danny and Trish. 10/10

I've had some unfortunate luck these past few years. I was involved in an auto accident, and I was also injured on the job. After hours of research and thought, I decided to go with Terry Salerno to handle both of my cases. First off, Terry has an amazing assistant (Trish Lobsinger), who is a rock star. She's very precise, and she is also very easy to talk to. Terry is very thorough and very good at what he does. As a client, you need to have confidence in your attorney, and I have 100% full confidence in Terry. He was able to let me take care of myself during the tough times, and he handled the

Terry did such a great job for me. He really looked after all my interest and kept me informed of what any plan was and always kept me informed. I very highly recommend Salerno Law Offices to anyone! You will not be disappointed any any way and he will always take care of his customers! If I need anything from him he’s always a call away and he always answered! That’s customer satisfaction at its best and he will take care if you!

I first met Terry Salerno when I was referred to him by someone who was previously represented by him.
I had been in a car accident and had suffered injuries to my neck and upper back. From the first time I walked into his office I had a good feeling about him. He exuded a quiet sense of confidence that I really needed to see that day and every time I talked to him after that. Terry was very thorough in investigating every aspect of my accident. I felt that he truly cared about me as a person and not just as a case.
I had never been in a situation like this before and through it all Terry was

So going to court was a very scare thing for me because i have never gone to court nor hire a lawyer before. But I got a recommendation to go see Terry Salerno, so I did. I was probably one of the best decisions I have ever made! He not only helped me have a peace of mind during this whole fiasco, but also helped my family have a peace of mind as well. He's extremely good at what he does! He makes sure to keep you in the loop with every little thing that happens or changes in your case. Honestly, I can keep going on and on about how wonderful they treated and how they kept me in the loop. I would
