Jeremy’s Personal Approach to Client Care

Jeremy is licensed to practice in Nebraska, the U.S. District Court of Nebraska, Iowa, and the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa. He is an active member in the Omaha Bar Association and Nebraska State Bar Association. He also currently serves in a leadership role within the Young Lawyers Division of the Omaha Bar Association.

“Helping people obtain fair compensation for their injuries is very satisfying” explained Jeremy. “My first job as an attorney involved insurance defense work at a medium-sized firm in Omaha. I learned a tremendous amount and gained knowledge on how insurance companies operate and value cases; however, my passion is working for people, not corporations whose main focus is to make a profit.”

“At its core, this firm has always had a family feel to it and Jeremy is an extension of our family,” said Managing Attorney Melany O’Brien, “I’ve known him for a while, worked with him as my associate and seen first hand what a hard-working, detail-oriented person Jeremy is with each case he litigates. That work ethic isn’t something you learn after being hired, you have to wake up with it every morning – and if you have it, you can learn everything else you’ll ever need to know by surrounding yourself with experienced mentors and colleagues. I am already delighted with Jeremy’s work, and believe his career as part of the firm is one that will do a tremendous amount of good for all of our clients.”

Jeremy handles plaintiff cases in Automobile Accidents, Dog Bites, Boating Accidents, Premise Liability and other Personal Injury cases. “Although my focus is on personal injury law, to me, each case is unique due to different facts and the personal connection with each client,” explained Jeremy. “So, although I do similar types of work each day, every client’s situation is distinctive, and that makes it beneficial to take a much more personable approach where the names and identities of your clients matter much more than the numbers and statistics. Working for someone, with the goal of making people whole and helping them to move forward with their lives, is so much more gratifying than working for a corporation who is primarily interested only in scoring the financial outcome. The people are what matter most to me in any case I handle.”

“Got in a bad car wreck and came to Hauptman O’Brien for representation and they did not disappoint me. Jeremy Elliott did everything he could for me and helped me out so much with the stuff I had no idea about. Couldn’t recommend Hauptman and Jeremy any higher.”

We could not be happier with the outcome of the work David did. He took a terrible situation and helped us out with evey aspect of the process of getting justice for my daughters and my mother. We highly recommend David and the Hauptman O'Brien team.

Thank you all so much for taking care of my wife and I. At a huge transition period in our life David, Desirae, and Lori took care of everything that I did not have the bandwidth for. Without your expertise I would have definitely missed stuff and come out of pocket for it. Yall made the process easy to understand and navigate and while I hope I dont need your services again I would 100% recommend to a friend. 😂

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!

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!
