Nevada

Fathers rights in Nevada are protected by the laws of the state. These laws relate to paternity, custody and child support.

Paternity: You have the right to have paternity established for any child you believe may be yours. Tests will be ordered. If you are determined to be the father, you will have equal decision-making power with the mother in regards to issues related to the child.

Custody: Nevada fathers rights allow you to seek custody of your children. This may mean sole or joint physical custody or simple legal custody that protects your right to consistent visitation with your kids. When you have custody of any kind, you have the right to be involved in decisions regarding the childrens education, religious involvement, activities, medical care if needed and much more.

Child Support: Many Nevada fathers receive child support payments for the children they have sole or joint custody of. You have the right to ask the court to determine whether child support payments are appropriate given the financial conditions of both parents.

These are your Nevada fathers rights. If you have questions or need help securing them, contact an attorney with a proven record of protecting fathers rights in Nevada.
