Nevada’s costs depend on issues, conflict level, and how quickly you exchange financial information. Because Nevada permits joint petitions and has no general waiting period, many uncontested cases resolve efficiently.
Expect a filing fee, plus service of process (if not filing jointly), copies, and certified decrees. Professional help may include mediation, limited-scope legal review, document preparation, and financial experts for valuation, tracing, or tax planning. Parents may have parent education fees where required.
Costs rise with complex property, high-conflict parenting, and late/incomplete disclosures. Costs fall when spouses organize financials, agree on valuation dates, work from a single shared settlement draft, and start with mediation to narrow issues.
Consider a Joint Petition if you agree on terms. Use mediation early, then obtain a lawyer review of the final settlement. Exchange clean, labeled disclosures. For real estate, define an appraisal method and refinance/buyout timeline to limit duplicate work.

Can I get a filing fee waiver in Nevada?
Yes. You can request a fee waiver if paying is a hardship.
Does filing jointly reduce costs?
Often yes, because it avoids service and can shorten timelines if you already agree on terms.
Will I need to appear in person?
Many uncontested cases finalize on paperwork or brief hearings; remote options may be available depending on the court.
