Father's Rights

Justice may be blind, but it doesn’t always feel that way. And there is no area of law where that is more true than in the area of Family Law. To many men, whether they be husbands, fathers, or both, it seems that the decks of the Family Court are stacked against them and in favor of the wife or mother. In the old days, this was actually true.

However, the Nevada Legislature has taken great pains in making today’s Child Custody, Child Support, Alimony, and Divorce laws gender neutral rather than stacking the decks in favor of the wife or mother.

Unfortunately, just because the law has become gender neutral doesn’t mean that the Courts have followed suit. Judges have their own feelings about the law and about how the law should be applied. Accordingly, in order to get the best possible outcome, you need an attorney who understands the intricacies of Nevada Law, Nevada judges, and how the two interact.

At Smith Legal Group, we understand that men are more than just a paycheck. Men want to be involved in their children’s lives, they have a right to be involved in their children’s lives, and they do not deserve to be shut out of their children’s lives just because they are not the Child’s mother. At Smith Legal Group, we understand the issues that affect fathers and how to maximize the law for our clients’ benefit – even when judges are less than enthusiastic about doing so. We also understand that not all mothers are created equal. Accordingly, in cases where the mother has issues that affect their children’s wellbeing, we have successfully obtained Primary Physical Custody awards for our clients.
