Testimonial

I met Mr. Smith several years ago. Not only is he a great attorney, but now a good friend.  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,

• There is no difference between a Nevada Divorce and a Las Vegas, or Las Vegas Nevada divorce. We use all three terms throughout our website to reach everyone seeking a divorce in the Las Vegas area of Nevada because people search for it in all three ways.
  
• In Las Vegas, 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 divorce in Las Vegas 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 (Las Vegas) Nevada Divorce and the (Las Vegas) 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.

There is no difference between a Nevada Divorce and a Las Vegas, or Las Vegas Nevada divorce. We use all three terms throughout our website to reach everyone seeking a divorce in Nevada because people search for it in all three ways. We file divorce cases in the following counties in Nevada; Clark County, Washoe County, and Carson City.

In the case of a one-signature Las Vegas 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 Complaint for Divorce and does nothing, in which case the divorce continues as an uncontested 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 Las Vegas divorce (same as a 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 Las Vegas divorce through a default process. This involves attempted service, by a process server, on your spouse at the last-known address, whether in Nevada, out-of-state, or our of the country, followed by publication of the Summons in a newspaper if the process server could not find your spouse and therefore could not serve the Complaint for Divorce 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 Decree of Divorce. Once the Decree is filed by the court clerk, your divorce is final.
