Common Family Law Questions in Nevada

An uncontested divorce in Nevada can be finalized in as little as 2 weeks once all paperwork is filed. A contested divorce with disputes over property, custody, or support typically takes 6–18 months depending on court schedules and the complexity of the issues involved.
No. Nevada is a no-fault divorce state. You only need to state that you and your spouse are incompatible or have lived separately for at least one year. You do not need to prove wrongdoing or fault to obtain a divorce in Nevada.
Nevada is a community property state, meaning marital assets and debts accumulated during the marriage are generally divided equally (50/50) between spouses. Separate property - assets owned before marriage or received as gifts or inheritance - typically remains with the original owner.
Nevada courts determine custody based on the best interests of the child, considering factors including each parent's relationship with the child, the child's adjustment to home and school, each parent's ability to meet the child's physical and emotional needs, and any history of domestic violence or substance abuse.
A legal separation divides assets and establishes custody arrangements without legally ending the marriage. Spouses who are legally separated remain married and cannot remarry. Some couples choose legal separation for religious reasons, to preserve insurance benefits, or as a step before deciding whether to pursue a full divorce.

Common Criminal Defense Questions in Nevada

Remain calm, do not resist arrest, and exercise your right to remain silent. Do not answer questions without an attorney present. Request legal counsel immediately and contact PRO LAW GROUP at (702) 474-0500 as soon as possible. What you say can and will be used against you - stay silent until you have representation.
In Nevada, police can detain you for a reasonable time for investigation without filing charges. If you are formally arrested, you must be brought before a judge for an initial appearance within 72 hours. If the prosecution does not file charges within that window, you generally must be released. An attorney can push for your release and challenge unlawful detention.
Yes. DUI charges can be dismissed or reduced if there were procedural errors during the stop or arrest, the breathalyzer or blood test was improperly administered, field sobriety test protocols were not followed, or there is insufficient evidence of impairment. PRO LAW GROUP can evaluate the specific facts of your case to identify the strongest defenses.
Misdemeanors are punishable by up to 6 months in county jail and/or fines. Gross misdemeanors carry up to 364 days. Felonies are more serious (Category A through E) and can result in state prison sentences from 1 year to life. Felony convictions carry long-term consequences for employment, voting rights, and firearm ownership.
Yes. Nevada courts consider criminal history when determining child custody, particularly convictions involving domestic violence, child abuse, drugs, or alcohol. A conviction can significantly impact your parental rights. If you face both criminal charges and a custody dispute simultaneously, having attorneys who understand both areas - like PRO LAW GROUP - is critical.

Common Personal Injury Questions in Nevada

Nevada's statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of injury. Missing this deadline typically bars you from recovering any compensation, regardless of how strong your case is. Contact PRO LAW GROUP as soon as possible after your injury to preserve all your legal options.
Nevada follows a modified comparative negligence rule. You can still recover damages as long as you were less than 51% at fault. However, your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you were 20% at fault and your damages total $100,000, you would recover $80,000. An attorney can argue to minimize your assigned fault percentage.
You may recover economic damages (medical bills, future medical costs, lost wages, reduced earning capacity, property damage) and non-economic damages (pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life). In cases of extreme negligence, punitive damages may also be available. PRO LAW GROUP works to identify and pursue every category of compensation you deserve.
In almost every case, no. Insurance companies routinely make low initial offers hoping claimants will accept before understanding the full extent of their injuries or legal rights. Once you accept and sign a release, you typically cannot pursue additional compensation. Consult with PRO LAW GROUP before signing anything - the initial consultation is free.
While you are not legally required to have an attorney, studies consistently show that personal injury claimants with legal representation recover significantly more - even after attorney fees - than those who negotiate alone. Insurance companies have experienced adjusters and attorneys working against you. PRO LAW GROUP levels that playing field.

Common Car Accident Questions in Nevada

Call 911. Seek medical attention even if you feel fine - symptoms like whiplash can appear days later. Document the scene with photos, exchange insurance information with the other driver, collect witness contact information, and report the accident to your insurer. Do not admit fault. Contact PRO LAW GROUP at (702) 474-0500 before giving any recorded statements to insurance adjusters.
Nevada's statute of limitations for car accident personal injury claims is two years from the date of the accident. Property damage claims have a three-year window. These deadlines are strict - missing them bars recovery entirely. Contact PRO LAW GROUP promptly after your accident to protect your rights.
Nevada requires all drivers to carry minimum liability insurance, but uninsured drivers still exist. If hit by an uninsured driver, you may recover through your own uninsured motorist (UM) coverage. If the driver was underinsured, your underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage may apply. PRO LAW GROUP explores every available avenue to maximize your recovery.
Case value depends on factors including the severity of your injuries, medical costs (current and future), lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and the degree of fault. There is no formula, but PRO LAW GROUP reviews every case comprehensively to pursue the maximum compensation available under Nevada law.
If you were not at fault, filing a claim against the other driver's insurance typically does not raise your rates. Filing a claim against your own policy (uninsured motorist, collision) may potentially affect your rates depending on your insurer and policy terms. PRO LAW GROUP can advise you on the best strategy to pursue compensation while protecting your insurance standing.

Common Document Services Questions

We notarize a wide range of documents including affidavits, deeds, powers of attorney, wills, contracts, loan documents, real estate paperwork, and court filings. If you are unsure whether your document requires notarization, call us at (702) 474-0500 and we will advise you.
Contracts are binding agreements. Unfavorable terms, ambiguous language, or missing provisions can cost you significantly down the road. An attorney review catches issues before you are locked in - often saving far more than the cost of the review itself. PRO LAW GROUP reviews and revises contracts, leases, settlement agreements, and business documents.
Most standard document reviews are completed within 1-3 business days depending on length and complexity. If you have a deadline, let us know and we will do our best to accommodate you. Call (702) 474-0500 to discuss your timeline.
We recommend calling ahead to schedule a notary appointment to ensure availability, though walk-ins are welcome during business hours (Monday - Thursday 8:30am - 5:00pm, Friday 8:30am - 3:00pm). Please bring a valid government-issued photo ID and the document to be notarized - unsigned, as most documents must be signed in the notary's presence.
