Happy Halloween from your favorite team!!

Our Koenig|Dunne team was excited to attend the Women’s Fund of Omaha Lead the Change luncheon. Each year, this event proves to be a powerful gathering of community leaders committed to advancing equity and opportunity for women and girls in our city.

The Keynote speaker, Ashley Judd, delivered a moving message about resilience, advocacy, and the strength that comes from sharing our stories. Her words reminded us why compassion and courage are essential ingredients for lasting change.



We left feeling inspired to continue leading with heart, in our work, in our community, and in support of one another.

Attorney David Pontier argued before the Nebraska Court of Appeals to advocate for our client’s position that the District Court erred in determining the Husband met his burden of proof to trace and set aside non-martial property from the marital estate.

Nebraska Appleseed fights for justice and opportunity all throughout the state, doing good throughout the community. Congratulations Josh!

“My dad came trying to help me. He punched my dad. He has multiple bruises and possibly a broken nose.”

I can’t show you a picture of our client who swore and attested to these facts on her Petition and Affidavit to Obtain Domestic Abuse Protection Order. It would be ugly with her dark black eye looking out at you. Instead, I post a pleasant photo of my in purple hoping that people will click and read her story. Because the story ends like this: Protection Order Denied.
