How Divorce Works in Nevada

Nevada is a community property state. Under this rule, nearly all assets and debts acquired during the marriage are owned equally (50/50) by both spouses, regardless of who earned the money or whose name is on the account.

The starting point for any settlement negotiation in Nevada is an equal division of all marital property. Courts can deviate from this in limited circumstances, but 50/50 is the default.
