Who it is for

Families in Nebraska getting papers in order: signing a power of attorney or will, settling an estate, or taking a money dispute to small claims.

Not the right fit if

You only need one of these papers (buy that kit on its own), or nothing is in Nebraska. Not a form preparation or legal service.

The successors swear or affirm the statements are true, under penalty of perjury. Handed to the bank or other holder. Presented to whoever owes the debt or holds the property; vehicles and boats go to the Department of Motor Vehicles for a new title. official form, simplified court procedure: check Neb. Rev.

Assets, debts, payments and distributions; it compares the countable assets with $100,000, dates day 30 after the death and leaves real estate out of the count.
• Nebraska Small Claims Court Kit. In Nebraska, small claims (Small Claims Court (County Court)) cover claims up to $7,500. From the official page: Judgments in small claims court may not exceed $7,500. Where and how to file, from the official pages: County where the defendant or defendant's agent resides; filing in the wrong court leads to dismissal and loss of filing fees and prepaid costs. Fees: small claims filing fee under Neb. Rev. Stat. 25-2804(2): $6.25 (Statutory small claims fee only; other county court costs and service fees apply. Total not confirmed.).

Lawyers allowed if case is transferred to regular county court docket. How to use the kit, the 8 confirmed Nebraska facts at a glance, what we couldn't confirm (online filing) with the page to check, and a yes/no checklist: is the amount under $7,500, is it the right court, is there someone to serve and something to collect from.
