Exceptions and details
Raised from $6,000 to $7,500 effective July 1, 2025 by LB139 (2024); before LB139 the limit was $3,500 (Nebraska Supreme Court fiscal note on LB139). Current Neb. Rev. Stat. § 25-2802(4) states fixed amounts (exclusive of interest and costs) and contains no automatic adjustment clause; the same limit applies to individuals and businesses. The Judicial Branch's June 20, 2025 release (which also covers the county-court civil limit rising to $70,000) says 'This change is in effect from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2030' — recheck after mid-2030. Under § 25-2803: no attorneys (limited exceptions), no assigned claims, only a party to the original transaction may sue, and no party may file more than 2 claims per calendar week or 10 per calendar year.
NSBA's referral service runs on its own dedicated domain (nefindalawyer.com), linked as 'Find a Lawyer' from nebar.com. Listed attorneys charge $50 or less for the first 30-minute consultation; NSBA describes it as a directory it provides and does not endorse listed lawyers.
