LINCOLN, Neb.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nebraska County Courts have added probate case filings to the list of case types available through the court’s Internet-based filing system. Probate e-filing is now offered for existing cases in the areas of estates, guardianships, conservatorships, and trusts. Nebraska attorneys can submit their filings to any of the 93 county courts in the state via the Nebraska Judicial Branch’s eFiling system. Probate case types join civil, criminal and juvenile case types, which are already a part of eFiling.
Confidential documents are protected throughout the filing process and when stored within the computer files, just as financial and personal information is now protected in other types of eFiled cases.
“We are very pleased to be adding Probate to our suite of electronic filing services,” said State Court Administrator Janice Walker. “Our hope is that the trial courts’ continuing advances in technology have made it easier for attorneys to conduct business and pass these benefits on to their clients.”
Other Nebraska Court online services offered:
- Court Calendar Hearing Searches (also available for iPhone and Android)
- Court Case Information Searches
- Court Case ePayments
- Court Case Payment Monitoring
Nebraska Court eFiling requires a Nebraska.gov subscription account, but is offered at no cost other than any applicable statutory filing fee. Over 2000 attorneys are subscribed to file electronically, and the Nebraska courts’ eFiling service currently processes approximately 20,000 documents per month.
Nebraska also offers an Attorney Portal which provides links to court and state agency online services in a centralized location.
