-
Our fees are as low as that of many typing and paralegal divorce services. Why not protect yourself and your legal rights by dealing with a licensed Nevada attorney?

I initially had him help me with family law matters and corporate matters and he always did an excellent job. One of the very few good attorneys left out there. R.E. Las Vegas, Nevada I believe in access to affordable legal help for all and I am dedicated to bringing you the highest-quality Nevada Annulment service possible -- at a price that makes sense to you in the current economy.
Yours truly,

When is a Nevada Divorce contested?
- Even when the Defendant does not sign the divorce papers along with the Plaintiff, it does not necessarily mean that the Nevada divorce is contested.
- If a Defendant does nothing after the Nevada divorce is filed and the proper procedure for such cases is followed, the Nevada divorce is still considered to be uncontested.
- A Nevada divorce becomes contested ONLY when Defendant files an Answer (either through an attorney or in Proper Person) stating that Defendant contests the divorce.

Joint petition Nevada divorce (two signatures) |
|
|
- In Nevada, a divorce is often filed in the form of a Joint Petition for Divorce (NRS 125.182) when both parties agree to a divorce. A Joint Petition is the simplest way to file and obtain a Nevada divorce when both parties agree to all terms of the divorce, including child custody, child support, visitation, and property division (if applicable).
- Both parties must sign the Joint Petition for Nevada Divorce and the Nevada Decree of Divorce. Once the Joint Petition and Decree has been signed and notarized, the Nevada Joint Petition for Divorce is filed with the Court and the Decree submitted for the signature of the judge assigned to your case. Once the judge signs the Decree, the clerk files it and your divorce becomes final.Another necessary document that must be filed before the judge will sign your Decree is the Resident Witness Affidavit, a sworn affidavit by another Nevada resident. Your divorce can be obtained in as little as one week using a Joint Petition.

Nevada Divorce Complaint (one signature) |
|
In the case of a one-signature Nevada divorce, one party acts as Plaintiff (the person who signs the Complaint for Nevada Divorce), and serves the other party (we arrange a process server for you) who becomes the Defendant.
In some cases, the Defendant ignores receipt of the Nevada Divorce Complaint and does nothing, in which case the divorce continues as an uncontested Nevada Divorce matter. If this occurs, a Default is filed with the court on Day 22 after the date of personal service (through a process server) or after the last date of the publication of the Summons if the Defendant could not be found by the process server. Once the Default is granted, the Decree of Divorce is submitted for the judge's signature. Once the judge signs the Decree of Divorce, and the clerk files it, your Nevada divorce becomes final. If your divorce develops as above, it is still considered an uncontested Nevada divorce. If the Defendant files an Answer denying the allegations in the Complaint for Nevada Divorce, the divorce is now considered contested (see the column just to the right of this under "When is a Nevada Divorce contested?" for details). In this case, a court hearing often becomes necessary. You may attend the court hearing on your own and plead your own case. We recommend that you hire a competent and experienced lawyer who practices Nevada family law, at this point, in order to protect your rights. Mr. Smith is available to continue as your attorney of record on your contested Nevada divorce. When you cannot locate your spouse:
If you cannot locate your spouse, you may still obtain a Nevada divorce through a default process. This involves attempted service, by a process server, on your spouse at the last-known address, followed by publication of the Summons in a newspaper if the process server could not find your spouse and therefore could not serve the Nevada Divorce Complaint and Summons for your Nevada divorce to your spouse. Once your spouse has been properly served either in person or by publication, a Default may be entered on Day 22 after the date of service or last date of publication. Once the Default is granted, your Decree of Divorce can be submitted for your judge's signature on the Nevada Decree of Divorce. Once the Decree is filed by the court clerk, your Nevada divorce is final. GET STARTED NOW |
