Legal Question in Family Law in Nevada
custody
I am going threw a custody battle currently, I live in california and the courts are requesting me to a get the sealed paternity records from vital records in Nevada that state that i am the father. Its the papers that I signed in the hospital the day i was born saying I am the father, I never had my name put on the birth certifacate for whatever reason so the paternity papers are the only thing that states that I am the father. I am trying to obtian these records myself it but requires a court order and I am trying to find the forms needed to get them. Even the name of the forms that i would need to submitt to the courts to start the order. Also the courts here are unable to assist me on getting the records from nevada Can you please help

Re: custody
Yes, I can get it. Expect to spend Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars for my time. I would prepare the appropriate paperwork and send them to you for signature and then have them filed.
You may email me to respond.
Re: custody
The document that vital statistics in Carson City has that you are probably looking for is the Affidavit of Paternity.
My first step would be to call them and see if they really need a court order or if a subpoena will do or if there is some way a written request from a lawyer would do.
