Understanding Family Law in Nevada

To appreciate Kristina’s role, it’s important to understand the unique aspects of Nevada family law.

Divorce in Nevada

Nevada allows no-fault divorce, meaning couples don’t need to prove wrongdoing. Instead, they can cite incompatibility. Still, issues like property division, spousal support, and parenting responsibilities can create conflict. Kristina helps clients navigate these issues fairly and efficiently.

Child Custody and Visitation

Courts in Nevada prioritize the best interests of the child. Kristina works with parents to create custody arrangements that serve children while protecting parental rights.

Child Support

Nevada uses guidelines based on income and custody time to calculate child support. Kristina helps ensure calculations are fair and reflect her clients’ circumstances.

Domestic Violence and Protective Orders

In cases involving abuse, safety becomes the highest priority. Kristina takes swift action to help clients obtain protective orders and establish safe environments for children.

Challenges Families Face — and How Kristina Helps

Family law cases can feel like an emotional rollercoaster. Common challenges include:

• Communication breakdowns between spouses or co-parents.
• Financial stress related to property division or support payments.
• Emotional impact on children during custody disputes.
• Fear and uncertainty in domestic violence situations.

Kristina’s role is to help families face these challenges with confidence. She not only handles the legal side but also ensures clients know they are not alone.

Real-World Example (Anonymized Case)

A mother of two came to Marathon Law Group after a difficult separation. The father was seeking full custody, leaving the client overwhelmed and afraid of losing her children.

Kristina carefully gathered evidence, presented the client’s dedication as a parent, and demonstrated why shared custody was in the children’s best interests. The court ultimately granted a parenting plan that allowed both parents to remain active in their children’s lives, providing stability for the kids and relief for the mother.

This case reflects Kristina’s ability to combine strong advocacy with compassion for the family unit.
