Nebraska
Personal Injury Lawyers
On the Great Plains, Nebraska personal injury lawyers practice
from Omaha and Lincoln to North Platte and Scottsbluff and many
other towns around the state. It doesn't take an eagle eye to
see that Nebraska personal injury lawyers are on the job protecting
the rights of citizens from the negligent and willful acts of
others.
The Nebraska State Bar Association is an 8,400-member professional
association of lawyers and judges dedicated to improving the administration
of justice. Its offices are located on the second floor of the
Roman L. Hruska Law Center at 635 S. 14th St., Lincoln.
Founded as a voluntary Bar in 1899, the NSBA was integrated by
order of the Nebraska Supreme Court in 1937. It is one of approximately
40 unified (mandatory) bar associations in America.
The mission of the Nebraska State Bar Association is helping
lawyers help people. To achieve this mission, the Association
addresses these goals and objectives:
- To foster and maintain integrity, professionalism, civility
and high standards of conduct by NSBA members
- To improve public understanding of the legal system and the
role of lawyers and judges in society
- To provide quality support and services for NSBA members
- To promote and safeguard the proper professional interests
of the NSBA
- To promote full opportunities for participation in NSBA activities
by all segments of the profession
- To promote quality legal education
Programs supported by the Association include Volunteer Lawyers
Project, which provides pro bono or donated legal services to
indigent Nebraskans who would not otherwise have access to the
legal system;Counsel for Discipline, which investigates public
complaints of attorney misconduct and prosecutes offending lawyers;
Communications, which informs Nebraskans of their fundamental
rights and responsibilities under the law and the Lawyers Assistance
Program which helps attorneys, judges, their families and friends
overcome chemical dependancies. A professional staff of 20 supports
