David L. Herzog: ‘He Was Never Too Busy to Teach’

Published by admin on Wed, 05/08/2019 - 12:00am

Omaha attorney David L. Herzog was a kind man who took the time to maintain re­lationships by writing notes, sharing articles and leaving a lasting impression on many in the local community.

As an attorney, Herzog was intense and didn’t like leaving anything to chance. He had an inquisitive mind and sought to under­stand the law, even when that meant pouring over the small nuisance of shades of mean­ing.

After a long battle with lung disease, Herzog died April 16 at age 81. He was practicing law up until the day of his death.
