Legal Answers
- Q. I am a father of two children under 18 in Nevada (washoe county) and I have a question regarding divorce w/children
- A: Sort of true and sort of not true. In a the divorce documents (called a Joint Petition of Divorce because you agree) you would state what the amount of child support would be. But you can then state you both agree to waive or change this amount.
- Q. I my Social Security to be considered part of the division of property/income in a divorce?
- A: Social security is not considered property so it would not be divided as part of the community assets. It is considered income and could be divided under alimony laws.
