Legal Question in Family Law in Nevada

Re: Child Custody

You need a court order modifying the Decree of Divorce or Custody Order granting you physical custody, setting forth the mother's visitation, and setting child support. If your ex agrees to the change of custody, you can file a Stipulation signed by both of you agreeing to the change of custody and submit a proposed Order to the court. If your ex will not sign a Stipulation, you must file a Motion to Modify Decree of Divorce, serve it on your ex, and proceed on a contested basis. While you technically do not need an attorney for either if you know the procedures and forms, this is such an important issue that you need to have it done properly.
