John Lingo is here to help you!

John is just a guy working hard each day…
Born and raised in North Platte, Nebraska, I learned all of my “life lessons” there. From working in my family’s John Deere diesel shop, I know you need to get your hands dirty to get a job done. My dad always said,
“The harder I work, the luckier I get!”
I apply this simple rule to my every day work.

FAMILY
John has been married for 31 years, has three grown children and three grandchildren. His older daughter is a speech pathologist. His only son (United States Marine Corps, Corporal) is a construction working foreman. His younger daughter is completing her last year of physical therapy school at Creighton University. His kids’ sports and coaching used to occupy all of his time–now he’s busy trying to keep up with three grandkids.

LEGAL ASSISTANT
Linda
I couldn’t do what I do without Linda’s help. She knows every client by name and keeps all of the details of the office running smoothly. From rural Pierre, South Dakota, she also understands hard work and representing “real people.” Over 17 years as my legal assistant, she has great attention to detail.
