Child Support cases in the Family Court are heard at the Child Support Center of Southern Nevada at 1900 E. Flamingo Road. Please check with your attorney, or with the court, prior to a hearing to confirm its location.

A large portion of cases in the Family Courts are initiated and finalized by parties who do not have the benefit of working with the advice of counsel (pro se).  These individuals rely upon the Family Law Self-Help Center for forms and information about the Family Courts.  While the center does not offer legal advice, a wealth of information is available to pro se litigants.
