BAIRD HOLM CELEBRATES 150 YEARS Few companies are as heavily ingrained in Omaha’s history as Baird Holm. In the literal sense, Baird Holm’s attorney Clair Baird helped pen the current Nebraska Constitution back in 1920, nearly 47 years after the firm’s inception. This year, the firm celebrates 150 years.
Key Ingredient: People
Originally named Montgomery and Son, the firm was founded by Civil War Union General Milton Montgomery and his son, Carroll S. Montgomery in 1873. For reference, the Civil War officially ended on April 9, 1865. Milton Montgomery’s steadfast determination to return to his brigade following an arm amputation and six weeks as a prisoner of war set the tone for the firm. He could have accepted a recruitment position with far less danger, but instead, he went back to the front lines. His men — his co-workers, if you will — were more important than his comforts. That comradery remains today. It’s one of the reasons the firm has a high retention rate and several lateral hires. “When I interviewed, I got to sit around a long conference table with probably 12 of the partners in the labor section and you could just see
their relationships through their responses,” said Kara Stockdale, who was named partner in December of 2019. “You could see that not only did they respect each other, but they had a great affection for one another. And that was when I knew I wanted to be a part of that group.” It’s a refrain echoed by executive committee member and Partner Grayson Derrick. Derrick interviewed with Baird Holm during his first year of law school and remembers “walking out of my interview thinking that’s exactly where I want to be.” He said his tour guide was Vickie Ahlers, who is still with the firm, but at the time was a first-year associate. Ahlers took him into an office with Bill Dittrick, who was a partner at the time, and attorney D. Nick Caporale, a former Nebraska Supreme Court Justice. “That was very intimidating … but I was put immediately at ease because Bill turned to Vickie and asked her about her mother, who had been ill, before we started,” Derrick said. “It stood out to me because here’s someone who has been practicing for 35 years, talking to someone that has been there for maybe seven months and his concern was not just about her practice, but how she was doing personally.”

You could see that not only did they respect each other, but they had a great affection for one another. And that was when I knew I wanted to be a part of that group. - KARA STOCKDALE, PARTNER
Commitment to Diverse Leaders
For Amy Lawrenson, the promise of professional development from experts in the real estate field solidified her decision to join Baird Holm. At the time she had been happily working for Mutual of Omaha. “I had an epiphany that this was the right opportunity for me,” she said. “It was with the assurance that I was going to get to work with people who were going to take a huge investment in me and create every opportunity for me to be successful in my career.” She also saw the number of women in leadership positions, as well as the firm’s Women’s Initiative, as a strong indicator of her career’s potential trajectory. “They had the highest percentage of women for a firm of its size in the region. And, those women weren’t just at the firm, but they were partners,” she said. Today that remains true for the company, which recently received the Midsize Mansfield Certification Plus designation. The certification certifies that at least 30% of a midsize firm’s leadership is diverse. “Nearly forty percent of our equity partners are female,” said Chris Hedican, managing partner. Lawrenson became a partner in 2017 and chaired the Women’s Initiative for six years. This year she stepped back from the Women’s Initiative after being voted onto the executive committee. Hedican and Derrick round out the three-person executive committee that essentially acts as the key decision-makers for the firm. It’s important to note that all three were elected to these roles by the partners.
Fostering the Next Generation
In a full circle moment, Lawrenson said she’s now in a position to help other young attorneys grow. “That’s unique in the practice of law can be a very dog-eat-dog, and that’s not how [Baird Holm’s] system works,” she said. At Baird Holm, new associates walk alongside senior associates in the beginning. “The best way for a young attorney to learn is by being a part of the process,” Derrick said. “From the beginning, our associates are side by side with us so they can see not only the work, but they’re a part of those client conversations and meetings.” Hedican said the firm also encourages associates and attorneys to select a mentor outside of their practice section to confide in. “Everybody has insecurities,” he said. “It’s important to have outlets so that they understand they can be vulnerable and not fear that someone is going to judge them as unfit or incapable.”
He admits that mentoring and training on this level is time-consuming, but “it’s critical.” “If you don’t take the time to tell them why their work was good or not good in certain areas they can’t learn,” he said. “Then you don’t have a firm that’s enduring.”
Building on a Legacy
Over the past 150 years, the firm has continued to evolve alongside its clientele. Take, for example, the firm’s technology and intellectual property section that Derrick chairs. “When I started in the technology section about 20 years ago a lot of what we were helping clients do was licensing and implementation of brand new electronic medical record systems,” Derrick said. “Now there’s licensing or a software aspect to almost every piece of equipment or product that a hospital has.” The same thing goes for financial institutions where electronic transfers, debit and credit cards, and cryptocurrencies have surged in the last decade. Lateral hires, such as national fair housing expert Scott P. Moore, have also allowed the firm to add new practice areas. “One thing that has changed is that when I came in we had lateral attorneys, but it wasn’t super common,” Hedican said. “[Now] over a third of our partners are lateral. From my knowledge, I’m the first lateral to become a managing partner.” The combination of lateral attorneys and attorneys who started their careers at Baird Holm creates a varied ecosystem of 33 practice areas. “I can walk down the hall and talk to Brandon Tomjack if I have a creditors’ rights issue, or I can go talk to Vickie Ahlers about a health care regulatory issue, or talk to Kara in immigration,” Derrick said. The firm takes great pride in being at the forefront of renewable energy in the state of Nebraska. “We’ve worked on essentially some capacity or another on almost every commercial grade renewable energy project in the state,” Lawrenson said. Hedican credits Lawrenson with being one of the attorneys who started the section and worked to advance it to a “100-pound gorilla.” Lawrenson said her passion for renewable energy projects comes from her background in a fifth-generation farming family in a small South Dakota community. “Typically in agricultural communities the schools are suffering from a lack of financial support,” she said. “Tax incentives from wind projects can fund an entire school, or help with renovations or expansions. “We love projects where you can see the impact.”

COVER story
BAIRD HOLM CELEBRATES 150 YEARS Baird Holm’s 150th Anniversary
The law practice that would become Baird Holm was established when Nebraska was just six years old. Since its formation, the firm has witnessed 29 U.S. Presidents, two World Wars, a Great Depression, a global pandemic, and numerous cultural and technological revolutions. As of today, the practice has over 100 attorneys supported by a full team of paralegals, legal assistants, and staff.
1892: At the Helm of the State’s Most Prominent Early Cases
1873: The Beginning Ten years after the Gettysburg Address, General Milton Montgomery and his son, Carroll S. Montgomery, founded Montgomery and Son. The firm is the oldest continuously existing law firm in the State of Nebraska.
Carroll S. Montgomery appealed, argued, and won the first case from the United States District Court of Nebraska that was decided by the United States Court of Appeals in the Eighth Court.
1894: A Senate Win Against a Future Presidential Candidate
1898: Paving the Way for Omaha’s Trans-Mississippi International Exposition
The firm’s John Mellen Thurston ran for Nebraska State Senator against William Jennings Brian, who later became a three-time Democratic candidate for the United States presidency. Thurston won the Senate race against Bryan and served as Senator from 1895 to 1901.
Carroll S. Montgomery was an organizer and then served as general counsel for the corporation that organized the TransMississippi and International Exposition held in Omaha in 1989, which welcomed more than 3,000,000 visitors. Montgomery successfully argued that the TransMississippi and International Exposition was a valid use of Douglas County municipal bonds created for that purpose.
1908: The Foundation for the Firm’s Education The firm’s Paul Martin became the first Dean of the Creighton Law School and served in this capacity until 1919. Over the years, he was also the President of the Omaha Bar Association, and Vice President of the municipal corporation that was an early predecessor to the present University of Nebraska at Omaha.
1916: The First Female Attorney Joins the Firm Effie Cover becomes the first female lawyer to join the firm, which is noteworthy because this was four years prior to the final ratification of the 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution establishing women’s right to vote. She was also the 30th woman attorney sworn in by the Nebraska Supreme Court. However, it was later discovered that she did not practice as an attorney but as a Legal Assistant.

MIDLANDS BUSINESS JOURNAL
1920: Contributors to the Current Nebraska Constitution Baird Holm attorney Clair Baird helped revise the original 1875 Nebraska Constitution in 1920, which remains in place today.
1920: Old Senate Chamber
1968: Founding Member of the American Society of Hospital Attorneys Attorney Edmund D. McEachen was a founder and later became president of the Board of Directors of the American Society of Hospital Attorneys, which founded the practice of health care law. In 1997, this organization combined with the National Health Lawyers Association, and is now the nation’s largest educational organization devoted to legal issues in the health care field.
1970: A Merger and a New Office The firm known as Young, Holm, McEachen & Hamann merged with Lane, Baird, Pedersen & Haggart, resulting in the creation of what is now known as Baird Holm. As part of this new identity, the firm moved into the newly completed Woodmen Tower as one of its first tenants.
1976: Prestigious Recognition 1988: Baird Holm hosts its Inaugural Labor Law Forum and Health Forum
2003: Baird Holm founds the Best Places to Work in Omaha initiative The initiative is now in its 20th year.
2010: Involvement in Renewable Energy Projects With substantial involvement from Baird Holm, the Nebraska Legislature passed Legislative Bill 1048, which created a framework for State approval of large utility-scale renewable energy projects as well as a system of property taxation for renewable energy facilities.
2014: A Significant Ruling for Employee Safety Baird Holm obtained a Nebraska Supreme Court ruling for a Fortune 500 client that afforded greater protections to businesses seeking to protect their employees from threats and violence. In what was described as a reversal of 100 years of precedent, the Nebraska Supreme Court extended restraining order and injunction protections to businesses as never before.

Architects located throughout the Midlands say the pandemic combined with the higher interest rates that have followed, have provided dual challenges for firms and their clients alike. In response to this, many architects are doubling down on technology to help boost efficiencies and control costs. “For-profit, developer-led initiatives, which have not yet been designed or have secured financing are seeing incredible challenges,” said Curt Witzenburg, principal with Holland Basham Architects. “While lending rates are nowhere near the historic highs of 18% or 20%, the current rates are negatively impacting several projects’ ability to start design. “As a firm, we actively monitor key market indicators, working to strengthen or reposition our efforts within new, existing or emerging markets as situations dictate. For projects coming off the boards or in construction, the labor and financing pressures have

largely been accounted for within the project proforma, allowing the projects to proceed per schedule.”
Technology Abounds
Witzenburg said new tech has helped the firm be more efficient, boost collaborative efforts and eliminate errors. At the same time, these tools allow architects to maintain total control over the creative process. “Visual-based artificial intelligence is having a profound impact on the creative world,” Witzenburg said. “While AI-generated outcomes rely on designer inputs, it has an incredible ability to quickly generate multiple iterations, thus streamlining the process of searching for the best forms, materials and colors. “Holland Basham Architects has always been quick to embrace new and evolving technologies to enhance our client experience

and optimize outcomes. Our offices also have fully integrated building information modeling, which is a five-dimensional modeling program. This program is combined into our virtual reality devices, allowing our clients to experience the interior and exterior architecture in a totally immersive environment which replicates the final built environment.” The firm has employed these tools to great effect in recent notable projects including the 103,200-square-foot Steelhouse Omaha. The $82.8 million performing arts center was completed in August of 2023. One of the first venues of its size in Omaha, seating about 3,000, it features cutting-edge design on the exterior to make it stand out and build an identity. “Holland Basham Architects worked with design architect Ennead Architects and took the project through construction documents as the architect of record,” Witzenburg said. “We also worked with acoustical engineers on the details to provide a stateof-the-art, acoustically engineered auditorium.” Other projects Witzenburg noted included a 21,500-square-foot, $3.5 million tenant improvement for Scooter’s Coffee, completed last fall, and the $23 million orangutan exhibit renovation, which
began this year for Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium. “Technically, the zoo project is very complex, with selective demolition of portions of an existing building, installing new structures adjacent to the remaining building, and keeping all program spaces within the structure with proper adjacency,” Witzenburg said. “At the same time, we are combining all of the building’s physical spaces, and the entire exhibit needed a complete overhaul to retheme and elevate the visitor’s overall experience. “The Scooter’s project was unique in the sense that all workspaces are unassigned and needed variety in their set-up to adapt to different tasks and work styles. This project included

new training rooms, meeting rooms, huddle spaces, lounge areas and desks, thus allowing for the greatest possible flexibility. In addition, technology integration was needed to accommodate in-person and remote meetings. We also paid special attention to environmental graphics and added a full-service coffee bar to reinforce the brand.”

possible to accommodate the new workplace, yet struggling to determine what that looks like. “The obvious challenges within the financial markets – inflation, rising interest rates, et cetera – tend to get a lot of the headlines currently,” he said. “But I believe the uncertainty on how we occupy the spaces and buildings we create, as well as those that already exist, are in many ways the root of our struggle. Following the pandemic, so many employers are still searching for the right ways to ‘come back to work’ and that has caused an instability that many are still processing.” Johnson said the firm has taken additional steps to help create beautiful spaces that work for clients today as well as provide flexibility for the future. “On the one hand, we’ve worked directly with employers to reassess the evolution of their workplace,” he said. “There is not a one-size-fits-all solution to the workplace, but by utilizing our R&D teams in our daily practice to better understand the users and the space itself, we’re finding quantitative and qualitative ways to make the workplace worth it again, for both the employee and the employer. “On the building side, we are working with a variety of clients to re-imagine creative solutions for their existing spaces. The adaptive reuse of vacant office buildings creates an opportunity for innovation and the revitalization of our urban core.” Once again, technology plays a major role in the company’s workday.

Group has emerged as a leader in new thinking when it comes to ways to get buildings drawn and done. “Especially as it applies to adaptable reuse, our teams are able to capture highly accurate point-cloud models in a very short amount of time,” he said. “This data can then be automated into workable BIM models for our architecture and engineering teams. “The accuracy of the modeling and photo imagery significantly benefits the workflow of the project teams during both design and construction. Beyond that, these point cloud models also provide our clients with detailed records such as 3D scans, photo imagery and measurable digital files of their existing buildings, which can

be extremely useful throughout the life of the building.” One standout project on the company’s resume of late was the 360,000-squarefoot Gretna East High School, which opened for class in the fall. DLR Group not only designed the physical structure for the $139.5 million project but did the entire creation of the brand for the school itself, which will eventually accommodate 1,600 students.
Human Touch
Not everything is about digital tools, however. Joseph Saniuk, principal with AO*, said the human touch has never gone out of fashion. “What sets us apart is meaningful communication in a timely manner,” he said. “There is nothing that replaces regular, dynamic communication and continuous involvement by team members from beginning to end. This has been at the core of our practice since the studio was started in 1981. “We feel strongly that intimate connections between team members help negate the inevitable information drop that occurs when a project is handed off from design team to production team to construction administration team. The faces seen at the first meeting, therefore, will be the same ones seen throughout the construction administration phase. This continuity of personnel, combined with regular team meetings throughout design and construction, helps to reduce errors and omissions.” Employing this philosophy has led AO* to many highly visible CONTINUED

projects through the years. Some recent standout work includes the clubhouse of the Lost Rail Golf Club, a 16,000-square-foot project completed last summer. Renovation of the Japanese Gardens at Lauritzen Gardens is another standout project, including a unique curvilinear path that provides an accessible route to view the greenhouses and orchid collection punctuated along the way by stair shortcuts and movement along the perineal color burst plantings and opportunities to rest with views. Of particular note is the company’s $10.5 million historic renovation of apartment buildings for inCOMMON. AO* was engaged to help renovate the historic Bristol Apartments and the three-story Queen Anne Georgia Row House. Both properties have been listed on the National Register of Historic Places. “The 1921 Bristol building, originally called Hanscom Apartments, will contain 64 renovated apartments on five floors, with InCOMMON utilizing the majority of the lower level for community spaces,” Saniuk said. “The 1890 Georgia Row House building, originally built as three dwelling units will contain 11 two- and three-bedroom units after redevelopment. “These spaces will also be open to members of the
neighborhood with the encouragement of use for community and neighborhood meetings. These buildings will help fulfill InCOMMON’s mission in the Park Avenue neighborhood, creating a working model that they can take to additional neighborhoods in the city.”

An Eye on the Future
One bright spot amid architecture’s challenges is the abundance of young people headed into the field. Still, numbers aren’t the only measure of a healthy local industry, which is where AIA Nebraska comes in, providing for continuing education and mentorship to keep the state’s best and brightest. “Following COVID, the UNL (University of Nebraska-Lincoln) College of Architecture and AIA Nebraska members continued their mentorship program for students,” said Sara Kay, executive director. “This program pairs students and members of the profession and provides opportunities for students to network and learn more about
architecture by participating in firm tours, touring buildings under construction or built.” The organization is also casting a wider net to help ensure future generations are exposed to the architecture profession at younger and younger ages than previous groups of students. “AIA Nebraska’s Architecture in School Committee has created tools and information about becoming an architect for grade school and middle school students,” Kay said. “It’s an informative tool about opportunities as well as some fun elements of architecture exercises for students and classroom teachers. This is in the process of being distributed to teachers and schools across Nebraska.”

HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGER, LUTZ
While an accounting career can be very demanding, it can also be incredibly rewarding. The outlook for the industry is strong, but there are notable changes both in culture and technology that professionals are seeking.
Projected Growth
The number of U.S. accounting graduates has dropped across the country and that has been felt in the Nebraska market, too. But it’s not all bad news. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics estimated a 4% increase in job openings from 2022 to 2032. Scott Scheef, CPA at HBE LLP noted that growth will likely come as more companies focus on providing a more attractive work-life balance.
CHIEF HUMAN RESOURCES OFFICER, EIDE BAILLY
“Many firms in the industry are beginning to sense the constraints of the labor market and associated difficulties in hiring and retaining qualified staff,” he said. “To aid this aspect, firms are working to revolutionize the industry and its perception. For those looking at a career in accounting, now is a great time to get started within the profession.” Robby Renshaw, human resources manager at Lutz, believes that to attract workers to public accounting, firms need to provide the right benefits. “We’re seeing that many professionals are transitioning to private accounting roles or leaving public accounting entirely,” she said.

“Focusing on strategic retention efforts along with improving benefits for employees and creating customized career path growth should be top of mind for firms. “Being in the public accounting industry can be incredibly rewarding and cultivate unique career opportunities but the industry overall is burdened by the compression of busy season hours and expectations. It’s no secret. Firms must take reducing hours and overall compression seriously to help employees find work/life balance and keep talented
individuals in the profession. It’s not a small feat to accomplish but rather an entire mindset shift requiring proactive efforts. The work demand will exist, but reducing the load should be the end goal.” Young professionals are also looking for flexible work environments and a focus on diversity and inclusion.

It’s not likely that technological advancements will ever fully replace the role of an accountant, but one thing is certain: it will change how accountants do their jobs. “The accounting landscape is undergoing remarkable transformations, with technology at the forefront,” Fitzgerald said. “We’re experiencing a surge in technological advancements and automation, where artificial intelligence and machine learning are taking over tasks like data entry and reconciliation. “Data analytics is becoming increasingly sophisticated, empowering accountants to provide valuable insights. The adoption of cloudbased accounting is now the standard, providing both accessibility and collaborative capabilities. The use of technology also frees up accountants to engage in more impactful activities allowing them to naturally up-level their roles moving from transactional to leadership and transformation.” While embracing the many changes that come with technology can be difficult at first, over time it can help give accountants their most important asset back: time. By utilizing the right technology in day-to-day practices, they can save time on routine tasks and provide key insight into how to make their firm more profitable. “Technology advancements and continued demand in the field have created an even stronger opportunity for aspiring or current accounting professionals to obtain a meaningful and impactful career,” Renshaw said. “It’s exciting to see the advantages of utilizing technology because, ultimately, this means less time doing the work and more time in front of the client, helping solve their complex business needs. Adapting the use of emerging technology for accountants and firms is not only going to create strong efficiencies in the work but also to foster collaboration, save time, reduce costs, and increase overall productivity.” When it comes to certifications, continuing education, or additional
credentials, there has also been a shift. “The cornerstone of credentials within the accounting profession remains the Certified Public Accountant (CPA),” Scheef said. “Traditionally, other credentials are then built upon the foundation established with the CPA designation. “The industry has seen a shift toward technology specialization and certification with the rise of data analytics and technology-related service offerings. At HBE specifically, we encourage education around the area of business succession, specifically related business valuations due to the massive shift of baby boomers leaving the workforce.”
The Future
While accountants will be required to embrace change, it’s a promising time to start – or continue – a career in accounting. “The outlook for the accounting profession has never been more positive than it is today,” Scheef said. “Due to the profession embracing technology, we are at the forefront of a revolution within the industry that allows accounting professionals to succeed both professionally and personally like no other time in history.”

LEADING LEADERS
MICK EMPOWERS TEAM OF REAL ESTATE AGENTS BY TIFFANY BRAZDA
I had a passion for helping more than just people buying homes, but also helping real estate agents develop the careers that they want to develop. -MATT MICK, REALTOR AND TEAM OWNER, LINCOLN SELECT REAL ESTATE
Like many college students, Matt Mick wasn’t entirely sure what kind of career he would land on. After switching majors numerous times, he graduated with a degree in education. But, almost immediately, he realized he wanted a different journey, and pursued a real estate license. In 2013 he joined a prominent real estate group, which became a valuable learning experience. It was then that he realized a desire to contribute more to the industry. “I had a passion for helping more than just people buying homes, but also helping real estate agents develop the careers that they want to develop,” Mick said. From there his entrepreneurial spirit kicked into high gear and he pursued the creation of his own real estate team. He formed Lincoln Select Real Estate Group in 2017 with a core focus: empowering his team of agents. “Everything we do in our organization when it relates to the real estate side is empowering our agents to create exceptional experiences for their clients, have a healthy work-life balance, to learn, and grow professionally and personally,” he said. Focusing on his team has paid off, RealTrends ranked
Lincoln Select Real Estate Group at No. 24 on its list of top medium teams in 2023. It was also listed at No. 1 for Nebraska in its category. Those rankings are a testament to the team’s lofty goal of each agent selling 24 homes a year. Mick said being part of EO Nebraska and learning from other members has helped him to build the needed skill set to be a leader. “When you start a business, typically you’re the problem solver for the first several years,” Mick said. “EO almost forces you to step back and learn how to actually communicate and be a better leader. It has taught me a lot about how to lead myself and how to lead the leaders around me.”
