Las Vegas Divorce Lawyer

If you are facing a divorce by choice or because your spouse has served you with divorce papers, you may wish to consider involving a lawyer to help with your case. Even if you and your spouse are on relatively amicable terms and you feel that there is little to no chance that your case will go to court, there are numerous issues that must be resolved. Having an experienced Las Vegas divorce lawyer by your side to represent your interests in these matters can make a big difference in the outcome of your case.

What's involved in a divorce?

There are two different types of divorce in Nevada. The first, uncontested divorce, involves a situation where spouses are able to come to agreements regarding all the terms of their divorce without court intervention. The second, contested divorce, involves a divorce that is taken to family court to be ruled upon by a judge. Whether you will need to undergo a contested or uncontested divorce may vary depending on the particular situation, your current relationship with your spouse, whether children are involved, and various other issues. Spouses may also chose a collaborative divorce, which is accomplished without court intervention like an uncontested divorce. In this process, both parties agree to avoid courtroom litigation and to reach their own mutually beneficial divorce settlement.

In general, the issues that typically need to be addressed in a Las Vegas divorce will include: spousal support, the division of property and debt, and child custody/support if a child or children are involved. Additional issues may arise, such as visitation rights and paternity.
