Nevada is a community
Submitted by elizabethcarlsen on
Nevada is a community property state, which means that any property acquired by the spouses during the marriage is presumed to be community property. Upon divorce, a court will divide community property equally between the two spouses. However, if the spouses have a valid prenuptial agreement in place, the court will follow the terms of the agreement when dividing property in a divorce. For more information about executing a valid prenuptial agreement in Nevada, see http://www.leg.state.nv.us/NRS/NRS-123A.html.
