About Wolfgang Mateus
Wolfgang Mateus Tattenbach earned his B.A. in philosophy from the University of Minnesota—Twin Cities in 2015. He went on to law school at Creighton University, where he completed his J.D. in 2021 and pursued a litigation concentration. Those classroom years framed his interest in courtroom procedure and adversary practice, and they provided the technical foundation he uses in daily work.
After law school Tattenbach began practicing in Nebraska. He is admitted to the Nebraska bar and joined Gnuse Law Office, P.C., where he has worked on a range of contested matters. Colleagues describe him as methodical; clients value clear explanations of procedural steps and practical timelines. He has handled matters that require careful pleading, discovery management and courtroom appearances.
Tattenbach’s training in litigation shows in his approach to cases. He prepares written pleadings and motions, manages document exchange, and represents clients at hearings. He breaks complex procedural rules into manageable tasks for clients and opposing counsel. He pays attention to deadlines and court rules, and he aims to present a concise factual record for judges.
His background in philosophy surfaces in how he frames arguments. That academic study taught him to spot underlying assumptions and to test the logic of claims. In practice this can mean tighter issue statements in briefs and a focus on the legal elements that courts must decide. He applies that analytical lens to fact development and to choosing litigation strategies that are proportionate to the stakes of a matter.
At Gnuse Law Office, P.C. Tattenbach works alongside attorneys who handle civil disputes in Nebraska courts. The office setting gives him opportunities to collaborate on strategy and to refine advocacy techniques. He takes on tasks ranging from client interviews to courtroom advocacy, and he often handles the day-to-day management of active files.
Outside courtroom hours he continues to follow developments in state procedural law and trial practice. He maintains a practical orientation; he evaluates cases on the merits, the available remedies and the costs of different paths forward. As of 2026 he practices in Nebraska and concentrates his work on litigation matters handled through Gnuse Law Office, P.C.
