Summary

The bill would obligate Nebraska’s Attorney General to use an open, competitive bidding process for private legal services contracts that exceed $10,000, file those contracts with legislative committees, and hold public hearings. It also mandates detailed fee reporting after contingent‑fee cases and limits hourly attorney rates to $1,000. The purpose is to increase transparency and protect taxpayer money.
