Grounds for Divorce In Nevada

The no-fault grounds for divorce in Nevada are:

incompatibility;
living separate and apart without cohabitation for one year.

insanity for at least two years before filing.

Nevada Child Custody

Custody will be determined in accordance with the best interests of the child. There will be no preference based upon the gender of the parent. The court will consider wishes of the child, if the child is sufficiently mature. Any reasonable agreement of the parties will be approved by the court. Joint custody may be agreed upon by the parties. Joint custody usually confers upon the parties equal decision making authority over the important decisions concerning their children's important developmental issues. It usually does not require that the children spend an equal amount of time with each parent.

Child Support

Nevada has adopted child support guidelines which apply in virtually every case, unless special circumstances are present. The child support calculation takes into consideration the gross income of both parties, and certain child related expenses. Child support will continue until the child reaches the age of majority, and may be extended through his or her secondary education.

Venue

An action for divorce may be brought in the county in which the defendant resides. If defendant resides out of state then in any county which the plaintiff may designate in his complaint.

Mediation

The parties may agree to submit any or all of their disputed issues to mediation, before or after a divorce is initiated. The agreements reached in mediation may allow the parties to proceed in court on an uncontested basis.
