Hannah Frankel
Hannah Frankel utilizes her social science background to effectively and compassionately advocate for her clients. Prior to attending law school, Hannah graduated Phi Beta Kappa with High Distinction from the University of Nebraska Lincoln with a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology and minors in Humanities in Medicine and Gerontology. Before graduating from law school, Hannah clerked for Dornan Law Team for five years—providing her with vast experience in family law, criminal defense, probate, juvenile, and appellate matters.
In 2022, Hannah graduated cum laude from Creighton University School of Law, where she received certification in litigation, was inducted into Phi Delta Phi honors society, was on the Dean’s List, and was awarded membership to the Order of the Barristers—a national honors society awarding 10 graduating students for demonstrating exceptional skill in trial advocacy, oral advocacy, and brief writing. During her time at Creighton, Hannah was active in the trial team, competitive arbitration, and national moot court. She was the regional champion at the Duberstein 7th Circuit Moot Court Competition, where she successfully advocated an appellate bankruptcy case amongst a litany of sitting federal judges from the 7th Circuit. She was also the regional champion in the Midwest ABA National Arbitration Competition.
Given Hannah’s social science experience and knack for litigation, she has a natural ability to make a personal connection with every individual she encounters while relentlessly advocating for her clients in the courtroom. Her affability and compassion drive her desire to make each and every client feel supported and heard.
