Nebraska Power of Attorney (General) is a legal document that grants an individual (the “principal”) the authority to appoint another person (the “agent”) to act on their behalf in matters relating to the management of their financial and other affairs. In Nebraska, a general power of attorney (POA) document can be used to grant an agent broad authority in matters such as business transactions, banking, real estate, investments, and other legal matters. There are two primary types of Nebraska general POA's: Durable and Non-Durable. A Durable POA remains in effect even if the principal becomes incapacitated, while a Non-Durable POA is terminated if the principal becomes incapacitated. Both types of POA's must be signed by the principal in the presence of two witnesses and a notary public. The document must also comply with the Nebraska Statutes. The agent has a fiduciary duty to act in the best interests of the principal, and all transactions must be disclosed. The principal retains the right to revoke the POA at any time.
