Nevada’s divorce professionals, verified.
Real attorneys, mediators, CDFAs and therapists — credentials checked against Nevada’s own official directories, not paid placement.
See a different stateNevada
Every professional below is currently at the Listed tier: credentials independently verified from an official Nevada source, automatically included whether they’ve opted into The Cusp or not — the same way a bar association directory works. Nobody here has paid for placement, and none of them have published pricing or been reviewed yet.
What “verified” means on this page
Not every check is the same check, and most directories hide that. Every listing below says which kind it was, and the date we did it — because a license check is a photograph, not a guarantee. Somebody confirmed in August can be suspended in September.
- State registerChecked against the state’s own licensing, court or bar record.
- Issuing bodyChecked against the organization that grants this credential — authoritative for the credential, but it is their own list.
- Membership listingA membership directory. Joining is voluntary, and this is not a license check.
- Self-reportedTaken from this person’s own website. Nobody independent confirmed it, and we are re-checking these against an official register.
- Source linkedChecked against the source linked, which is not a state register.
Nobody paid to be listed here, and nobody can. Listings are not for sale, and no professional on this page has paid us anything to appear on it or to appear higher on it. If we are ever paid in connection with anyone listed here, it will say so on this page, next to that listing. Most of these were confirmed against a state register. A small number were not, and rather than quietly presenting those as equivalent, they are marked and we are re-checking them.

Family law & divorce attorneys
Verified via the state’s official bar / attorney licensing source, filtered to family law practice and active status.
Certified mediators
Verified via an official court-connected or state-recognized mediator roster.
Certified Divorce Financial Analysts (CDFAs)

License verified active against the state’s official license-lookup tool.
Not included yet. Mediators: Nevada’s two big family-court mediation programs — Clark County’s Family Mediation Center and Washoe County’s family court program — describe their services but publish no mediator names. The three here come from the one official Nevada court mediation roster that is published with names: the Supreme Court Settlement Program. Important distinction: these are court-appointed mediators for appeals, not the staff mediators you’re assigned at the family courthouse. For those, contact your county’s mediation center directly.
Not included yet. Therapists: Everyone listed is a Marriage and Family Therapist or Clinical Professional Counselor, because that board’s registry can be read directly. Licensed clinical social workers are missing entirely — the Nevada social work board’s verification tool sits behind a "prove you’re human" check we don’t work around.
Not included yet. CDFAs: Three CDFAs. IDFA’s search is behind a "prove you’re human" check we don’t work around, so only individually-indexed profiles could be confirmed.

Know someone in Nevada who needs this?
Sending one person a straight answer about money is more useful than most advice. Nothing here asks for their real name, and nobody finds out they looked.
Doing your own Nevada filing instead?
The Nevada Divorce Kit has the exact forms, deadlines, and rejection traps for your county.
The rest of what we have written about Nevada. Every figure is quoted from Nevada’s own statute or its courts’ own published schedule, and carries the date we last checked it.
Everybody on this page charges for their time. If money is the constraint — and for most people reading this it is — these two come first, and we earn nothing from either.
- Nevada Legal Services — free civil legal help for people who qualify on income.
- Supreme Court of Nevada Law Library — Self-Represented Litigants guide — the court’s own self-help material, free to everybody regardless of income.
Divorce coaches are not in this directory, and here is why
Everyone above holds a license a state regulator can take away. “Divorce coach” is not a protected title — in Nevada or anywhere else — so there is no license to check and no regulator to check it with.
We read each certifying body’s own website looking for one thing: a published route by which a coach can lose the credential. Of the three divorce-specific credentials we examined, not one publishes a disciplinary process a client could actually use.
That is not a reason never to hire one. A coach is cheaper than a lawyer for the things that are not legal problems, and a great deal of what costs people money in a divorce is not a legal problem. It is a reason to know what the credential does and does not mean before you pay anybody.

Every agent we introduce in Nevada is divorce-trained and vetted
Most agents are competent and most have never handled a divorce sale — two clients who may not be speaking, a court order neither was told about, a closing date somebody else controls. So we do not list agents. We introduce one, and only after they have cleared four things:
- a license we checked ourselves with the regulator, with no unresolved discipline;
- six closed sales in the last two years, from their own MLS records;
- 4.7 or better across every site they are reviewed on, at least ten reviews;
- our divorce real estate training and its twenty-question assessment.
Then we check on you, not on them — at seven days and again at six months.
