Hauptman O'Brien Safe at Home

In 1990, Hauptman, O'Brien Personal Injury Lawyers founded Safe Ride Home® to keep Nebraskans safe during the holidays. For the past 30 years we have helped more than 70,000 people get home safely.

In 2020, it’s become safer to stay at home this holiday season. Therefore, in an effort to keep our community safe and in accordance with CDC, federal, and local government guidelines, Safe Ride Home® will be suspended this December.

As a firm, we wanted to continue to give back to those in need, so we created the Safer At Home campaign. We will be giving away $200 Hy-Vee gift cards every day through New Year’s Eve. For your chance to win, please fill out the form on this page.

We hope this small act will help ensure all of us can stay safe at home and no one goes hungry this holiday season. Happy Holidays 2020-style from your team at Hauptman O’Brien!

Promotion Period: Entries must provide name, phone number, email address, and mailing address to be entered to win. Winners will be selected 12/14/2020, 12/21/2020 and 12/28/2020. The last day for entry is 12/27/2020. Winners will be mailed the $200 Hy-Vee gift card. No more than 1 winner per household will be awarded.

SAFE RIDE HOME®

Although the traditional Safe Ride Home® program isn’t running, if you do find yourself out and need a safe ride home, we still want to make sure you can get home safely, therefore we will pay for one ride home per person. To schedule your ride, call (402) 292-2222, press option #2 to speak to a live dispatcher. Tell the dispatcher you want the Hauptman O’Brien SAFE RIDE HOME®. If you don’t do this, your ride won’t be free. Be sure to read the program rules below.

Program Rules:

  • Because the full program is not running, only one free ride per person is allowed.
  • Rides are provided 8p-3a 12/11 - 12/31, within Douglas & Sarpy counties ONLY. You cannot get a ride to or from Iowa.
  • You will be taken home or to a hotel, not to another event location or bar.
  • When you are picked up, be sure to tell the driver you’re taking a free Hauptman O’Brien SAFE RIDE HOME® or your ride will not be free.
  • Please be patient. There are more than 100 active cabs, but due to high demand there’s a chance a cab may not be available immediately upon request. If you’re not using the app, be sure to get an estimated pick-up time from the dispatcher.

Tim O'Brien was prompt when I initially reached out to this firm. There was never any nonsense or unnecessary communication. When my case settled I was contacted and got in right away to finish our business. It was a pleasure working with Tim O'Brien & his staff!

Jeremy Elliot, Nicole Kays, and their team were very helpful, thorough, and understanding in helping me reach a settlement after I was injured in a car accident. I valued their communication and advice throughout the process, and I recommend them highly to anyone.

I suffered severe injuries in an auto accident in May of 2025. I chose Mr. Cripe to represent me and pursue liability compensation against the at-fault driver and their insurance carrier. After a very tedious but thorough process we were able to secure substantial damages which is more than normally expected. I have nothing but kind words to say about Mr. Cripe. Throughout this ordeal he was very supportive, informative and always asked for my opinion on the given situation. I would choose Mr. Cripe without a doubt if the situation should ever arise again where I need legal counsel.

As a college educated working professional, I never wanted or thought I or my family would need the services of a personal injury attorney. When someone in our immediate family was involved in an accident, my wife and I thought we could navigate the insurance process on our own, (after all we weren’t looking to profit from it). We quickly realized the process has become complicated and can turn into a full time job, costing our family in ways we never even dreamed. While I pray we never find ourselves in a situation to need their services again. David will be my first call. Everyone from top to bottom was patient and understanding. They walked us through the process and advised us along the way, filling in the gaps that hospitals, insurance companies and representatives failed to provide. Thanks to David and his wonderful team our family was able to focus on the emotional and physical healing while they found resolution and we were able to move on.

A little over 2 yrs ago I walked through the doors @ Hauptman O’Brian Wolf & Lathrop, a little nervous and a little scared. I was in a car accident on the interstate, my car was totaled and I’m thankful to be here. With their help and reassurance that everything will be fine. And it is. Jeremiah Elliott and his fantastic staff kept me well informed through out the process. It took patients on my part and time to heal too. They were always there to answer my question and so kind. I would recommend their legal service’s for any type of situation you might be in. It will only take a little time to tell your story or situation and listen to what they say. They are there to help you through the legal process and protect you. I will say I’m grateful for their compassion and knowledge of the legal process. I couldn’t do it without them. Thanks to them my case was successful.

Fortunately I haven’t required their legal services, but I have made use of their “Safe Ride Home” program. I feel safer knowing that this service is available for everyone, not just clients, during the holidays.

First time getting into a motor vehicle accident and the team was really helpful during this process. The piece that made me feel better to work with the Hauptman Bellevue office was that they were always asking how I was doing. The office really ensured my health and recovery was the priority. They made me comfortable throughout the whole process, and would recommend anyone in a motor vehicle accident to reach out to this office. Thank you all!

David O’Neill and his team were wonderful. I was in a car accident with my young son that left me with no vehicle and a broken arm. I was getting overwhelmed with phone calls from insurance and hospitals while trying to heal and care for my two young sons. David and his team took care of every communication and kept me in the loop about how things were progressing. Definitely recommend as he and his team are very empathetic and professional!

Tim and his asst Janet made everything very easy for me the entire time so I could concentrate on healing. They communicated with me every step of the way. I was not rushed or told what to do. They let me make decisions on how we wanted to approach things. I felt heard and I was happy with the outcome. Thank you for your hard work. I will definitely be recommending you.

With 10 years left until retirement I had an accident at work requiring back surgery. Due to the severity of the injury I am no longer physically able to work. Hauptman, O’Brien, Wolf and Lathrop was able to secure a settlement to help bridge that gap. Without them, I would have nothing.
