About Brian

As a Dundee homeowner and local attorney, Brian Fahey has a deep and abiding love for his native Omaha. Growing up in the Field Club neighborhood, Brian learned to treasure midtown Omaha’s community of tight-knit neighborhoods. He is running for Douglas County Commissioner to preserve and grow that same quality of life for his two daughters and all the residents of District 5. 

Brian graduated from Central High School, where he met his wife, Sara. He attended Gustavus Adolphus College where he earned a Bachelor’s Degree in music and political science. After college, he worked as both a nonprofit manager and church choir director. He earned his law degree with high distinction from the University of Nebraska College of Law and is in private practice in Omaha. 

Brian’s legal practice ranges from advising Omaha businesses of all sizes to fighting for injured plaintiffs in court. Representing everyone from large businesses to indigent individuals allows Brian to understand the critical importance of ensuring quality government services for everyone and the need to operate all branches of government efficiently.

In the community, he serves on the boards of multiple nonprofit organizations and sings in several community choirs. His wife Sara is a music teacher at Central High School, and they are the proud parents of two daughters.
