Understanding Child Custody in Nevada: A Focus on the Best Interests of the Child

Posted by David R. Jacks, Jr., Esq. | May 03, 2024 | 0 Comments

In Nevada, determining child custody revolves around the best interests of the child, guided by specific factors outlined in NRS 125C.0035. This blog post delves into these factors, ranging from the child's own preferences and the health of the parents, to the potential for parental cooperation and issues such as domestic violence and abuse. We provide real-world examples to illustrate how each factor might influence custody decisions. Remember, when no court custody decision exists, Nevada law presumes equal parental rights, irrespective of the parents' sex or marital status. For a deeper understanding of how these factors may apply to your situation, or to discuss your specific case, contact the Jacks Law Group at 702-834-6300.

Romano v. Romano

Posted by David R. Jacks, Jr., Esq. | Feb 20, 2022 | 0 Comments

What is the standard to change custody after it has been established? In Romano, the Nevada Supreme Court held that “a court may modify a joint or primary physical custody arrangement only if (1) there has been a substantial change in circumstances affecting the welfare of the child and (2) the modification serves the best interest of the child.” Moreover, the Nevada Supreme Court further stated that “we overrule Rivero to the extent it indicates that a district court must first determine what type of physical custody arrangement exists before considering whether to modify that arrangement.”
