Establishing and Enforcing Child Support Orders

Our experienced attorneys at Willick Law Group have a wealth of knowledge in helping clients establish child support orders. Mr. Willick was the delegate sent by the Nevada Chapter of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers to advise the current Child Support Commission of improvements that could be made to Nevada’s guidelines.

Additionally, we are dedicated to enforcing existing child support orders, making sure payments are made on time and in full.

How often can child support be modified in Nevada?
Child support can be modified in Nevada once every three years or sooner if there is a substantial change in circumstances that justifies the modification request.
