Fenner Settled into New Office At McGill
Retired Creighton law professor G. Michael Fenner is settling into retirement by establishing an office at a local law firm.
Fenner is now officing out of the McGill Gotsdiner Workman & Lepp P.C. L.L.O. law firm at 11404 W. Dodge Road. He will serve in an of counsel role there.
“We are thrilled to have him with us,” said Jennifer Colwell, the firm’s executive director.
Fenner said many of the firm’s attorneys are former students of his, and he said the firm was gracious to provide him an office.
“I couldn’t be happier to have this place to go and this place to continue my work,” he said.
For now, he said he plans to work on the jury pattern instructions and consulting. He taught constitutional law at Creighton University for 47 years before retiring from that position this summer.
“I haven’t been out here long enough to really be involved in doing any of the firm’s work,” he said. “I imagine that I will spend a lot of my time out here doing the extracurricular things I used to do at Creighton, like the pattern jury instruction project and some amicus curiae briefs that I have written over the years.”
Fenner said he can still be reached at his Creighton email address, as well as at his new email, mikefenner@mgwl.com.
He and his wife plan to remain in Omaha, and he expects to stay involved in Omaha Bar Association functions and other activities.
Fenner said he appreciates being a part of the McGill firm.
“I couldn’t have moved into a more welcoming place,” he said. “It just really feels good here.”
