Questions & Answers

I was granted my divorce now how do I get her out of my house.

You have to start the eviction proceedings. If the divorce is official you should be able to start the process unless everything is in both of your names which is a bit trickier. All of the forms you need and how you fill them out is of the familylawselfhelp.org website for Clark County. You need to file those papers and get that process started if you want them out of your home though.

Do they help with paperwork for accounts for my child my husband opened it and was the only one on the account now the bank closed it and I need to get it open so I can take the money out ?

If I send my spouse some papers for a divorce and she hasn’t responded within the 21 days and I went back to court to file more paper work. How long will it take to get the divorce after that?

Pichilla Wiley | Oct 27, 2019
Chuck Mays | Oct 27, 2019

They get 30 days to respond, and if they don't respond then you can file for a default ruling!

We got married in Las Vegas in April 2018. We went to the Philippines. It was a 90 day visa. I just came back to Los Angeles. May I get divorced in LV? Un contested. She is still in the Philippines. Not coming back. No children, property.

If you did not have the capacity to marry or you were defrauded as it was not the other person's intent to stay married you can file for an annulment or in the alternative divorce. You have to get the other party to agree to your terms via an Answer. Or you serve them after getting permission for foreign service of process. If you cannot find your spouse you must file an affidavit of due diligence and then an Order permitting service by publication in the other country. After the time for publication elapses, you can obtain an annulment or divorce. A bit difficult to do on your own. I suggest you hire an attorney. I offer free consultations

Do i get my working papers here or somewhere else

Victor Gomez | Oct 27, 2018
Christian Gutierrez | Oct 27, 2018

If you mean a work permit for minors then yes, thats where you are supposed to go. But, i beleive they changed that. I think you no longer need a work permit, just parental consent. Family court house on pecos and Bonanza is where you want to go. Good luck and work hard ...

You can talk to self help outside. You walk up where you normally go through security. You can even talk on the phone with the judge, if necessary.

Does this place have a notary public available

My daughter's legal name baby girl smith cause her mother never turned in any paper work at the hospital how can I get that changed to her actual name and put my name on the birth certificate?

Don Arnold | Oct 27, 2019
Stephen Compan | Oct 27, 2019

It is not as simple as that. You must file a petition to establish paternity and within the petition seek a name change to add yoor sirname. As to her first name, you might need mom's consent. By the way, as to your sirname, it is not an automatic absolute right. I am a lawyer with 32 years experience in family law.

My ex daughter in law has legal physical custody of my grandkids but they have been living with their father for 2 years. Does that nullify the custody arrangement

angie ihlenfeld | Oct 27, 2019
Terry Weber | Oct 27, 2019

I really don't know, if the kids have been living with the father it would seem that the father would have custody, and ex daughter in law would need to start the process of custody over again, prove to the court that the children needed to live with the father because she didn't have the ways to care for the children at that time

If I already have custody with one child in place how do I add another to the same case ? File a motion or fill out a whole new custody paper? Where can I go for someone to help fill them out?

Melissa Curiel | Oct 27, 2019
Lukithia George | Oct 27, 2019

When you file the new case they will ask about previous cases. If it is one continuous case the clerk will assign the same case number. I know when I filed for my kids previously having a case for our older child they statrted a new case but the new case will include both children.
