Nevada divorces are district court cases filed by verified complaint under NRS 125.020 and kept by the county clerk. Since 2025 access is governed by NRS 121.110, which replaced the repealed NRS 125.110: the summons, proof of service, pleadings, decrees, orders and judgments in a family law proceeding must be open to public inspection, while financial disclosure forms, sealed documents, confidential exhibits, custody evaluations and medical records are closed except by court order for good cause, and everything else is presumptively open. The General Financial Disclosure Form is therefore withheld, but the complaint, the decree and any merged settlement agreement are public.
Each county is searched on its own, and Clark County's Court Case Lookup covers most records from 1990 forward, with in person viewing at the Clerk's Office and copies at 50 cents a page. Sealing a presumptively open record requires a compelling interest that outweighs public access under NRS 121.110(3), and the Supreme Court's general sealing rules do not apply to dissolution matters. The Nevada asset search page explains what the open documents still reveal.

Straight answers
Open only the answer you need.
State court records are usually free to view at the courthouse and often free online, with per-page fees for certified copies. PACER charges $0.10 per page (capped at $3.00 per document), waived under $30 per quarter.
No. A sealed case is hidden from the public docket index by court order. Its existence may still be confirmable by number, but documents are not accessible.
Civil cases involve disputes between parties (contracts, torts, family). Criminal cases are brought by the government. Both are indexed by the same court clerks but tracked in separate sub-dockets.
Not in one search. PACER covers all federal courts. Most states have a statewide judiciary portal that covers their state courts, but a few require per-county lookups. This page links to Nevada's official portal.
