Nebraska Landlord-Tenant Law Highlights

Key Rules Every Renter And Owner Should Know

Nebraska's law sets limits on security deposits, requires timely return with an itemized statement after move-out, and mandates proper notice for landlord entry except emergencies. Evictions require statutory notice and a court order-process matters, and mistakes can be costly.

Avoiding Disputes

Clear Leases And Communication First

Many conflicts can be prevented with well-drafted leases and consistent documentation. We help landlords implement templates tailored to their properties and counsel tenants on clauses that often cause problems-fees, maintenance, and early termination terms.
