Family Law

When faced with any life-changing circumstance regarding personal relationships, including separation, divorce or child custody issues, it is easy to become overwhelmed with the process and uncertainties the future may hold. It is critical that you have the benefit of an objective viewpoint to determine how the law applies to your particular facts and circumstances. It is also important to realize that the choices and decisions made early in your situation, either good or bad, can have long-lasting effects on your future life and the relationships you will maintain. At the Law Offices of Douglas H. Clark, P.C., your case will receive the personalized attention it deserves. We will seek the best possible outcome for you, whether it involves finalizing the legal matters necessary for an amicable, uncontested divorce, or aggressively litigating your matter when the opposing party or their lawyer are attempting abuse your legal rights, which unfortunately can be an all-too-common occurrence in contested family law matters.

We tailor our approach to each case on an individual basis, always keeping your desired outcome at the forefront of our strategy. While we aggressively pursue our clients' rights, if there are minor children involved, we will always do so in a way which protects their best interests.

At the Law Offices of Douglas H. Clark, P.C., your case will be handled personally by attorney Douglas H. Clark, an experienced Las Vegas family lawyer. We bring a broad range of legal experience to your case and you will not be a victim of the family law “tunnel-vision” which regrettably seems to afflict many of the attorneys whose experience is limited only to family law. There are times in which a peaceful resolution is possible, and there are times in which a much more dynamic and forceful approach is the only way to zealously safeguard your rights and your future. With your input regarding your goals in the case, always keeping your ultimate best interests in mind, we will always attempt to devise a strategy which will guide your family law matter through to a successful conclusion with a minimal amount of stress to you.

Family law involves much more than just divorce, child custody and support, alimony and division of property and debts. It also can involve pre-marital and post-marital agreements, adoptions, determination of paternity and child custody for unmarried parents, step-parent adoptions, name changes and representation before the child support enforcement court. Additionally, southern Nevada has experienced tremendous growth over the last decade, and many individuals are relocating here after a divorce or other similar life-changing event. We routinely domesticate divorce decrees from other parts of the country to the jurisdiction of the Nevada courts, handle modifications of post decree matters, and seek court approval and parenting plan modifications for parents to move from the area as well. We have also successfully litigated grandparents’ rights cases, which is an area of the law which has received too little attention until recently.

Relationships and behavior are not static; they constantly evolve and change. At the Law Offices of Douglas H. Clark, P.C., we are committed to building a long-term relationship with you and your family in order to serve your needs as circumstances change. You deserve the benefits of having an experienced Las Vegas family law attorney protecting your rights and advocating for you.
