Abstract: This article presents a framework for computing damages in Nebraska personal injury and wrongful death cases. The analysis is based on statute, common law, case law, jury instructions and practice. Elements unique to personal injury and wrongful death cases are discussed, as well as elements common to both. The role and requirements for damage experts are examined, as are the work product and likelihood of deposition and testimony.
