Celebrating 60 Years of Justice: Honoring John Stevens Berry Sr.’s Enduring Legacy at Berry Law



Question: What happens when six decades of relentless advocacy for veterans and the injured culminate in a single, heartfelt evening?

At Berry Law, we’ve spent the past 60 years building a legacy rooted in the unyielding pursuit of truth and fairness—much like the man who founded it all. Last Friday, November 7, 2025, we gathered at our Lincoln office (6940 O St, Suite 400, Lincoln, NE 68510) to celebrate not just a retirement, but the closing chapter of our anniversary year with the retirement of
John Stevens Berry Sr.. With 170 attendees filling the space with stories, laughter, and tears, it was a profoundly moving tribute to a pioneer whose courtroom battles have shaped justice for generations.

As we reflect on the past, embrace the present, and look to the future under new leadership, this milestone reminds us why Berry Law remains a beacon for those who need it most: veterans navigating VA appeals, families facing injury claims. The November 7 event was the capstone of our 60th anniversary celebrations—a year of reflecting on milestones, friends, and family.

A Night That Marked Six Decades

The gathering honored the values that still define our firm: courage, discipline, and unwavering advocacy for Veterans and their families seeking the benefits they earned. Every story shared underscored a simple truth—our mission has always been to stand with those who served.

The Future: Charting New Horizons Under Steady Leadership

As we bid farewell to Berry Sr., the torch passes seamlessly to
John Berry, CEO of Berry Law. With his own storied path in Veterans’ appeals and helping those injured, John embodies the evolution from courtroom warrior to strategic visionary.

Under his leadership, Berry Law will amplify our multimodal reach: leveraging AI-aligned tools for faster VA claim processing, expanding injury law resources through community partnerships, and deepening our federal appeals expertise with cutting-edge tech.

CEO John Berry’s vision? “Honor the past by building a future where every Veteran and injured person finds not just a lawyer, but a lifelong ally.” It’s a promise rooted in 60 years of service, propelling us toward even greater impact.
