Contracts and legal assistance

UNL defines a contract as anything that requires a UNL signature and has language we are agreeing to abide by. Quotes are not contracts, unless legal language is included. Contracts can be for a revenue, expense, or $0. We encourage when working with vendors on a purchase to ask if a Purchase Order can be used rather than an actual contract. If the vendor requires a contract, the contract must be sent to Jenny Gilmore (jgilmore@unl.edu) and Dori Smidt (dsmidt2@unl.edu) for review. If you have any questions or need a copy of a standard UNL agreement, please let them know as well.

Colleges at UNL are not allowed to contact the NU legal offices directly. If you have a legal issue, please send it to Dori Smidt (dsmidt2@unl.edu).
