Divorce is one of the most difficult transitions a family can face.

Our goal is to help you make informed decisions while protecting your financial stability, your parental rights, and your long-term well-being.

Understanding Divorce & Legal Separation in Nevada

Nevada is a no-fault divorce state, which means most cases are filed based on “irreconcilable differences.” But even in a no-fault system, divorce can be confusing — especially when you’re unsure of your rights, how property is divided, or what the court will consider in parenting matters.

Community Property Explained (NRS 123.220)

Nevada is a community property state. This means that, generally, all income, property, and assets acquired during a marriage belong to both spouses equally. Courts often begin with the presumption of a 50/50 division.

Separate Property Exceptions (NRS 123.130)

Despite this presumption, some assets remain separate property if:

  • They were owned before the marriage
  • They were received as a gift
  • They were inherited through a will or trust
  • They were awarded through a personal injury settlement

Understanding what is community property versus separate property is often one of the most confusing parts of divorce. We help clients identify, document, and present these distinctions clearly.

What a Nevada Divorce Typically Involves

Every case is unique, but most divorces require addressing:

  • Division of community property & debts
  • Parenting plans and custody arrangements
  • Child support calculations
  • Spousal support/alimony
  • Safety considerations or domestic concerns

You don’t have to navigate these issues alone. We break down each step so you fully understand your rights, options, and likely outcomes based on Nevada court practices.
