LINCOLN, NE – February 2025 – Berry Law is proud to announce the addition of Joe Loukota as Chief Training Officer. A U.S. Navy Veteran and experienced attorney, Joe brings both legal expertise and firsthand military experience to his role, helping Veterans receive the benefits they have earned.
Joe earned his Juris Doctor from the University of Nebraska College of Law in 2019 and has been practicing law for five years. He is admitted to practice in Nebraska, as well as before the Nebraska Supreme Court, U.S. District Court for the District of Nebraska, and the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims (CAVC). His passion for helping Veterans stems from his own military background, having deployed aboard an aircraft carrier and served in Iraq.
Among his most notable cases, Joe successfully overturned a denied service connection for a Vietnam-era Veteran stationed in Thailand. By uncovering a single sentence in the Veteran’s performance evaluation, he secured presumptive herbicide exposure benefits, leading to life-changing financial and medical support for the Veteran.
“Helping Veterans isn’t just a job—it’s a mission,” said Joe Loukota. “As a Veteran myself, I understand the sacrifices our service members have made, and I am committed to fighting for their rights and benefits.”
Jerusha Hancock, Chief of Legal Operations in Veterans Practice at Berry Law, shared her excitement: “Joe’s dedication to Veterans, combined with his legal expertise and military background, makes him a valuable addition to our team. His firsthand experience allows him to connect with the Berry Law team and our clients in a way that few others can.”
Outside of his legal work, Joe is a Lifetime Member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) and enjoys pub trivia, fishing, woodcarving, and building Legos. His commitment to continuous learning and problem-solving reflects his personal philosophy: “Leave no stone unturned.”
