A supportive and talented team.

A most professional team – supportive and talented. What I love most is how they prepare clients with facts, guidance, and well-thought-out strategies for complex situations. Any executive, especially of woman-owned or diverse businesses, would benefit from having Goosmann Law Firm on their side.

Our History

Goosmann Law Firm was founded in May 2009 by CEO and Managing Partner Jeana Goosmann, who left an established, century-old law firm to build something different – something bolder.

Starting with one attorney and one assistant, Jeana made a defining early investment in branding and culture, positioning the firm around a clear vision: Midwest values, big-city capability, hometown service, and a business-minded approach to law. Over the years, the firm expanded across lowa, Nebraska, and South Dakota, surpassing billions of dollars in completed deals and earning national recognition as one of the fastest-growing law firms in the United States.

Today, Goosmann Law Firm operates in three Midwest locations – Omaha, Sioux City, and Sioux Falls – and continues to grow with no plans of slowing down.
