With more than 125 years of history in Omaha, Fraser Stryker is more than a trusted legal partner—it’s a committed community leader and a forward-thinking law firm.
“We are committed to delivering the best results possible for our clients and the best working environment for our attorneys and staff,” said Elizabeth Culhane, Partner at Fraser Stryker. “Everyone is empowered to make meaningful contributions to client success while building a fulfilling career.”
Built to Serve: Clients, Colleagues, and the Community
Founded in 1898 by Lodowick Crofoot and Edgar Scott, Fraser Stryker earned early respect for its tireless advocacy and its involvement in Omaha’s development. That spirit continues today, as the firm serves clients ranging from family-owned startups to Fortune 500 corporations. Attorneys guide clients through various areas of law, including business law, litigation, employment, data privacy, intellectual property, and more.
“We’re proud to provide legal counsel tailored to each client’s goals,” Culhane said. “Our attorneys work collaboratively to help clients navigate challenges and support their long-term success.”
This service-driven philosophy extends well beyond the courtroom. Fraser Stryker has long championed diversity, equity, and inclusion, making DEI a firm-wide priority by integrating it into recruitment, retention, and firm culture. That’s paired with a long-standing commitment to community engagement, including pro bono services, nonprofit board leadership, and hundreds of hours of volunteer work each year.
“Since the firm was founded, we’ve believed in contributing to and growing the Omaha community,” said Culhane. “That culture of service is woven into our values.”
Powered by People—and by Place
Fraser Stryker’s ability to attract and retain top legal talent comes down to its people—and its location.
“Omaha has that rare blend of big-city opportunity and small-town connectivity,” said Culhane. “It’s an ideal place for professionals and families alike.”
Internally, the firm’s collaborative and inclusive culture is another major draw. Long employee tenures reflect a workplace where colleagues are supported, empowered, and encouraged to build fulfilling careers. Fraser Stryker believes in bringing different perspectives to the table and ensuring everyone’s voice contributes to the firm’s success.
Invested in Omaha’s Growth and Future
Fraser Stryker is a proud and involved member of the Greater Omaha Chamber, viewing it as a strategic partner in driving economic growth and opportunity across the region.
“The Chamber is the leading organization in our state for economic development,” said Stephen Bruckner, Partner at Fraser Stryker. “Economic growth benefits every business—and as practicing lawyers, we appreciate how the Chamber’s work aligns with our mission to serve clients and grow relationships.”
The firm also sees direct value in the Chamber’s networking and leadership development programs, including Leadership Omaha, where many Fraser Stryker attorneys have formed meaningful professional connections and gained valuable perspectives.
“If you really want to know what’s going on in greater Omaha, get involved with the Chamber,” Bruckner added. “You’ll meet like-minded business owners and entrepreneurs who will help shape the vision for your own business.”
