Serving Green Valley, Anthem, and Every Henderson Neighborhood
Our attorneys represent clients throughout Henderson, Nevada, including Green Valley, Green Valley Ranch, Anthem, Seven Hills, MacDonald Ranch, Whitney Ranch, Inspirada, Cadence, Tuscany Village, and Lake Las Vegas. We also serve neighboring Boulder City and families across the rest of Clark County, including Las Vegas and North Las Vegas, through our two office locations.
Henderson families face the same Nevada statutes as everyone else in the state, but the details of your community matter in a family case: school zones and commute times shape custody schedules, and the significant home equity, businesses, and retirement assets common in Green Valley and Anthem households demand careful property division work. A Henderson family law firm that understands both wins better outcomes.
Where Henderson Family Law Cases Are Heard
Henderson does not have its own family court. Divorce, custody, child support, and other family matters for Henderson residents are handled by the Eighth Judicial District Court, Family Division, which serves all of Clark County. Most family court departments sit at the Family Courts and Services Center at 601 North Pecos Road in Las Vegas, and several departments hear cases at the Regional Justice Center downtown. Your case will be decided by the same judges our attorneys appear before every week.
Two practical points our Henderson clients appreciate: first, nearly all family court filings are submitted electronically, so opening your case does not require a trip to the courthouse; second, if custody is contested, Nevada court rules generally require both parents to attempt mediation at the court’s Family Mediation Center before trial. We prepare our clients thoroughly for those mediation sessions, and when mediation cannot resolve the dispute, we are ready to litigate. If you are researching forms on your own before hiring counsel, the court-affiliated Family Law Self-Help Center is a reliable resource, but self-help paperwork is no substitute for representation when custody or significant assets are on the line.

Henderson Family Law FAQ
Where do I file for divorce or child custody if I live in Henderson?
Henderson residents file family law cases with the Eighth Judicial District Court, Family Division, which serves all of Clark County. Most family matters are heard at the Family Courts and Services Center at 601 North Pecos Road in Las Vegas, though several departments sit at the Regional Justice Center downtown. Filings are submitted electronically, so you do not need to visit the courthouse to open your case.
Is there a family court in Henderson?
No. Henderson’s Municipal Court and Justice Court handle other types of cases, but divorce, custody, child support, and guardianship all fall under the Eighth Judicial District Court, Family Division. Our attorneys appear before those departments regularly.
Will my custody case require mediation?
If custody is contested, Nevada court rules generally require both parents to attempt mediation at the court’s Family Mediation Center before the case proceeds to trial. Mediation resolves many disputes, and we prepare every client thoroughly for it; when it does not resolve the case, we are ready to litigate.
How much does a family law attorney cost in Henderson, NV?
Costs depend on the complexity of your case and the level of conflict involved; a contested custody trial costs more than an uncontested divorce. Your initial consultation with Cohen Fic & Squires is free, and you will leave it with a clear picture of your options, your strategy, and your likely costs before you commit to anything.
What parts of Henderson do you serve?
All of them. Our clients come from Green Valley, Green Valley Ranch, Anthem, Seven Hills, MacDonald Ranch, Whitney Ranch, Inspirada, Cadence, Tuscany Village, Lake Las Vegas, and every other Henderson neighborhood, along with Boulder City and the rest of Clark County.
Do you also have a Las Vegas office?
Yes. In addition to our main office on Whitney Ranch Drive in Henderson, we maintain a Las Vegas office at 7878 W. Sahara Ave., #110, Las Vegas, NV 89117 for clients on the west side of the valley. The same attorneys serve both locations, and both are reached at 702-609-8432.
