The Nebraska Criminal Process
From Arrest To Resolution: What To Expect
After an arrest in Omaha, you'll move from initial appearance and possible bail to discovery, plea negotiations, and-if needed-trial; early legal help preserves evidence, protects your right to remain silent, and can influence charging decisions, diversion eligibility, or sentencing outcomes in Douglas County courts.
Our Defense Approach
Investigate, Challenge, Negotiate-And Try Cases When Necessary
Decker Law Offices reviews police reports and body-camera footage, interviews witnesses, and files motions to suppress when an illegal search or unreliable testing taints the evidence; we negotiate for reduced charges or dismissals when appropriate and will go to trial when that best serves your interests, always giving honest advice about plea options versus courtroom strategy.
