How to File for Divorce in Nevada?

Follow these instructions to formalize the divorce in the state of Nevada without a delay:

1. Prepare a divorce petition (choose the right statement depending on whether you have children together or not), disclose your personal details and employment status, ask an impartial individual to confirm one of you actually lives in Nevada, and attach a cover sheet to allow the court to assign your case correctly. Negotiate the terms of the Nevada Divorce Agreement with your spouse - you need to come to an understanding regarding your finances and child care without violating the rights of either party.
2. Select the appropriate district court - at least one of the spouses has to reside there permanently -- and file the paperwork with the clerk. When the latter certifies the documentation they received from you, you may draft and submit a divorce decree - it is possible to deliver it personally, send a certified mail, or fill out an electronic copy of the decree.
3. Once the judge examines all the papers you have provided, they will certify the dissolution of marriage and give the decree to both of you or to a clerk who will later deliver the document to the parties. Depending on your location, only one spouse may be notified about the successful processing of the decree - in this case, they are obliged to inform the other party about it. The decree and its certified copies will be required if the divorced spouses need to change the current details in other documents.
