The Nevada Petition To Establish Custody And Visitation is a legal document used to request the court to establish custody and visitation rights between parents and their children. The petition is filed by the parent seeking to establish custody and visitation rights. It outlines the facts of the case, the parent’s wishes regarding custody and visitation, and any proposed agreements between the parents. Nevada's law recognizes two types of custody: legal and physical. Legal custody encompasses the right to make decisions regarding the children’s education, health care, and religious upbringing. Physical custody refers to where the children will reside. The court may grant joint or sole custody and will consider the best interests of the child when making a decision. Visitation refers to the right of one parent to spend time with the child, and can be supervised, unsupervised, or a combination of both. There are two types of Nevada Petition To Establish Custody And Visitation: 1) Petition to Establish Custody; and 2) Petition to Establish Visitation. The Petition to Establish Custody outlines the facts of the case, the parent’s wishes regarding custody, and any proposed agreements between the parents. The Petition to Establish Visitation outlines the facts of the case, the parent’s wishes regarding visitation, and any proposed agreements between the parents. Both of these petitions must be filed with the court in order for a judge to issue an order establishing custody and/or visitation rights.
