Custody in Nevada: joint by default, twelve factors, one hard presumption
Parents hold joint legal and physical custody until a court orders otherwise, with a statutory preference for keeping it joint. Twelve best-interest factors drive contested calls — and one finding changes everything: domestic violence proven by CLEAR AND CONVINCING evidence raises a rebuttable presumption against custody for the perpetrator. The 146-day threshold does the arithmetic under the joint preference.
The honest note
Factors take findings and every case is its own record — organizers structure the facts; the court weighs them.
