A Nebraska Power of Attorney is a legal document that allows a designated agent to make crucial decisions on behalf of the principal. This could include financial decisions, medical decisions, or decisions related to property matters. By granting power of attorney, the principal can have peace of mind that their affairs will be handled appropriately if they cannot do so themselves.
