Probate in Nevada
Nevada sets the executor fee by statute at 4%, 3% and 2% of the net estate in tiers, but only when the will does not set its own amount, and attorney fees follow a statutory schedule too, with court and publication costs on top. There are two small estate thresholds, and one of them can reach real property. Creditors have 90 days, which shrinks to 60 for summary administration. Nevada has no death tax.
Personal Injury in Nevada
Nevada gives two years for most injury claims, though property damage gets three. Recovery is barred only when your fault exceeds the combined fault of all defendants, so a 50-50 split still pays half. Ordinary injury claims carry no cap, while medical malpractice has a cap on noneconomic damages that rises over time, and malpractice attorney fees are limited to a flat percentage by statute.
Family Law in Nevada
Nevada is a community property state that divides community property equally unless there is a compelling reason. Child support follows a tiered formula in the Nevada Administrative Code, with a low-income schedule and a joint physical custody offset. There is no alimony formula; a needs-and-ability analysis applies, and a 20% change in income triggers a review. A divorce can be filed after six weeks of residence, with incompatibility as a ground and no separation period.
