Quick Las Vegas Divorces can also be really cheap.

You can get divorced for $1000--total for both spouses.  That is $500 per spouse if your divorce does not involve assets and children.  The Jacks Law Group will prepare most of the paperwork required to finalize your divorce for $800 and will refer your spouse to any of several attorneys that have agreed to accept $200 to explain your spouse's rights to him or her.  

However, if your spouse does not like what the other attorney has to say, and changes his or her mind about the terms of the divorce, negotiation may still save this from becoming a contested divorce.  Once it becomes a contested divorce in Las Vegas, however, expect to sign a new agreement with your lawyer and prepare to pay significantly more money because litigation is imminent.

If you and your spouse already agree on all the details, then the uncontested Nevada divorce process can save you a great deal of money, time, and aggravation. It is important, however, that your uncontested divorce be handled correctly so that you don't have to go back to Court later to fix a mistake.

NEVADA UNCONTESTED DIVORCE ATTORNEYS

In order to file an uncontested divorce in Las Vegas, you and your spouse must agree on all of the details.  These details include child custody, division of property, and whether a spouse will pay spousal support. If you do not agree on these details, then you will have to file for a contested divorce. The process in an uncontested divorce is relatively quick and easy. The couple lists their assets and other parts of their agreement in a Joint Petition for divorce. One of the benefits of filing an uncontested Nevada divorce is that one law firm can represent both parties, thus saving on attorney's fees.

The Decree of Divorce, which is your final divorce order, is then filed and the divorce is finalized at that time. This entire process can typically be completed within a few weeks. Occasionally, a judge will ask for short hearing, known as a "prove up" hearing, to make sure that both parties understand the terms on which they are agreeing. Prove up hearings are typically quick and can be easily handled by a Las Vegas family law lawyer.

Many people think that they can take care of a Las Vegas uncontested divorce on their own, but they do not know what they are getting themselves into. Do-it-yourself forms have their uses, but many people do not understand what they are filling out. Making a mistake during an uncontested divorce can cost both of you money down the road. An attorney can catch and recognize unforeseen circumstances and help protect cases from becoming costly.

Just as you would not conduct surgery on yourself, you should not attempt to maneuver the legal system without the assistance of counsel.  As you can see, you probably will pay less for your divorce doing it this way than you paid for your wedding.
