This library has saved my behind So Many Times. So Many. If you don't have an attorney & want to find out about the law for absolutely anything this is the place to go for your answers. The people who work there are So Friendly & helpful. They will help you find anything you want. They have computers, copying machines & any information on every law & consequences of actions you can think of. This is the place to go to find out the truth of a matter & not having to rely on anyone telling you about what they heard somewhere or their friend told them. Go here & find out the truth in less then an hour. Oh yea, they are closed on Friday's. Good luck. Please excuse me. This review is for the Nv State law library on 3rd st. Just east 1 block from the courthouse. That being said the civil law help center is extremely helpful as well. They have all of the forms for just about everything. They will explain your options & direct you what to do next. Very nice & helpful people.

They have someone at the front desk who’s like a mind reader and every form for anything you need to do while you’re at the court house. If anything is confusing or difficult just let them know. They are really fantastic and kudos to the court for having the office right next to the Justice Court point of entry.

I have filed a Small Claims Complaint against my former landlord but haven't received a court date yet. I am moving out of state so when I do receive the court date how do I serve the defendant from 2300 miles away?

Sharon Grund | Oct 18, 2021

It took about 48 hours to get the email with the info. You can look on the website . They post it for you to find. Not a landlord tenant case. But good luck with the whole system. Not a good time to be a tenet or landlord.

I live in a weekly and I’ve only been here going on my third week. I’m being told that management has to serve me with an at least 4 day pay or quit. Is that true or what is the case in my situation

Pennie Stults | Oct 18, 2021
Robert Metz | Oct 18, 2021

I believe Nevada law states you need a 5 day pay or quit/ unlawful detainer notice for week to week. Monthly would require a 30 day notice followed by the 5 day. You can look up the Nevada NRS codes it tells you exactly what needs to be done.

Hello, I need to complete probate papers and have reviewed/signed by NV county judge. Can your office assist with the forms and do I have to mail the forms back to the court house?

I'm sure they can help you but if not then they will tell you where to get help! Call them in the morning just as they are opening.

Got mold in my house they my landlord waited two years to repair it

Demetric Martin | Oct 18, 2020
Joseph De Luca | Oct 18, 2020

Best thing to do is have the place tested as well as yourself ,, once it comes back positive, got file for code enforcement and send your landlord or person a notice saying just what you said be sure to add the words NOTICE ,, mold of any kind isn't safe and sound be dealt with professional, not just clean with bleach and New paint... We take care of mold and much more terrakleen.wordpress.com

I'm not sure but if it goes to a judge he'll probably issue a bench warrant for your arrest.

You can go to the Self Help center to file the proper motion documents. They have all the forms needed and can answer questions, but cannot give legal advice.

If I gave the person renting a seven day notices and the filed one in justice court and a 24 notice . What did I do wrong . The police gave that person the justice court and the 24 notice . I had a witness watch when I gave him the 7 day notice

Judy Dalton | Apr 21, 2022
Tuwane Fisher | Apr 21, 2022

7 days do not include the weekend. Period. The tenant has time to file an answer. If the tenant has no answer, at the end of the 7th day, the 24hr notice can be served. But, once a tenant files an answer, you both have to wait on a response from the judge. Either via email or U.S. mail. At that time, if the judge says the tenant must leave, then the 24hr notification should be issued.

What form do I need to use to add exibits to a case in Eviction court Thanks

Tenant issues - She is moving out. Left the Garage Door open at night. Metro call me at 10pm. What may I do it?

Robert Song | Oct 18, 2021
Pablo Cobbler | Oct 18, 2021

Not much, especially if she's still at least semi occupying the place. Failing to secure your property is only an invitation to a thief in theory. The thief is still responsible to have and display a moral compass.

Can a new property management company come in and take over bills, set a price for said bills, charge us for all kinds of things the owner previously took care of and raise our rent without even looking at the property never seen the property?

Anna Arrowood | Oct 18, 2020
Joseph De Luca | Oct 18, 2020

I would suggest you go to the legal help at the Justice department and file before they do, the answer is yes unless you know the proper nrs codes in that case would be possible no, if they have a strong arm they will use that and will be able to all the things you listed and more

Too vague a question. Your tenant rights will depend on the facts in your case.

How do I find out what to do with my case

Richard Valverde | Oct 19, 2019
Bridget Clayton | Oct 19, 2019

I'm not understanding the question. I can only answer questions that are part of the eviction process, I don't know about anything else.

If a motion was vacated on a technicality and judges office said the Re File Motion --I only found a form for Reinstatement--Is that the same?

When can I serve a 5 days notice?

Teresa Oliva | Oct 19, 2018
Bridget Clayton | Oct 19, 2018

From my experience being the tenant, the Landlord, always served it after the 5th day close of business day. Except if the 5th fell on a holiday, then I would get it the next business day. Now since you are the Landlord then maybe you should go down to the Justice Court and go to the Civil Law help desk.

My neighbor has a water pipe leaking underneath her apartment. Water is coming up through her floors even though her water has been turned off for days. Does she have to pay rent for days she has no water.?

You have to make a request with your your landlord., in writing. Kind of like you would a normal service request.
