Types of Custody

Nevada recognizes both legal custody and physical custody.

Legal custody refers to who has the right to make decisions about the child’s upbringing and lifestyle. A parent with legal custody can make decisions about the child’s healthcare, education, religion, and more.

Physical custody refers to who the child lives with. Both physical and legal custody can be shared jointly or given solely to one parent. Even if one parent has sole physical custody, both parents may share joint legal custody and vice versa.

Navigate Your Custody Case with The Hill Law Group

If you and your partner can agree on a child custody arrangement, this is often the best-case scenario. Parents who effectively negotiate an arrangement are often more prepared to co-parent and maintain a strong relationship with their child. We always urge our clients to make every effort to resolve custody disputes in mediation to save time and money, reduce stress, and protect the children’s well-being.

If you and your partner cannot agree on custody arrangements, your case will be decided by a family court judge. Courts tend to favor joint custody to ensure that the child maintains a relationship with both parents. However, the judge has broad discretion and may award custody in whatever way he or she believes reflects the child’s best interests.

Factors that may affect a judge’s custody decision include:

  • The child’s preference (if old enough)
  • Any history of domestic violence or child abuse
  • Where each parent lives
  • Each parent’s willingness to cooperate and co-parent together
  • Each parent’s mental and physical health
