Yes, the Nevada Joint Petition for Divorce (No Children) must be notarized. Both spouses (Petitioner and Co-Petitioner) must sign the petition and have their signatures acknowledged by a Notary Public for the Clark County Family Court to accept it for filing.
Lake Mead Mobile Notary offers professional and confidential mobile notarization for divorce documents. We can meet both parties together or schedule separate, private appointments anywhere in Las Vegas, Henderson, and Clark County. Starting at $65.
A petition filed without properly notarized signatures for both spouses will be rejected by the court clerk, causing unnecessary delays in your divorce proceedings.

The Role of Notarization in an Uncontested Divorce
A Joint Petition is a streamlined process for couples without minor children who agree on all aspects of the divorce, such as the division of assets and debts, and whether spousal support (alimony) will be paid. Because this petition acts as a legally binding agreement, the court requires that the signatures of both parties be formally verified.
Notarization provides this official verification. It confirms the identity of both signers and signifies that they are entering into the agreement willingly and without duress. This is a crucial step for the court to grant the final divorce decree.

Official Clark County Family Court Form
This is the official packet provided by the court's Self-Help Center. Ensure you complete all required sections, including the Affidavit of Resident Witness if applicable. Fill out all forms completely, but do not sign them before your notary appointment.
⚠ Both spouses must sign the petition in the physical presence of the notary. Signing ahead of time will invalidate the document.
Both Spouses: Both Petitioner and Co-Petitioner must sign the main petition and have their signatures notarized.
Resident Witness: If one spouse is filing based on the other's Nevada residency, a third-party witness must sign an "Affidavit of Resident Witness," which also requires notarization.

Step-by-Step Notarization Process for a Divorce Petition
Complete the Entire Packet (Do Not Sign)
Fill out the Joint Petition, Financial Disclosure Forms, and the Affidavit of Resident Witness (if needed). Ensure the property and debt division is clearly outlined and agreed upon by both parties. Leave all signature lines blank.
Prepare Valid Photo IDs
Each spouse (and the resident witness, if applicable) must have a valid, unexpired, government-issued photo ID. The name on the ID must match the name on the petition.
Schedule Your Notary Appointment(s)
Book a mobile notary appointment. You can schedule a single session for both spouses or two separate, private sessions. If a witness is involved, they can be present at one of the spouse's appointments or schedule a third one.
Sign the Documents in Front of the Notary
The notary will verify each signer's identity before they sign. The notary acts as an impartial witness to the signing, confirming it is done willingly.
Notary Completes the Notarial Certificate
The notary will complete the required notarial wording on the petition and any affidavits, sign, and affix their official seal. This makes the documents ready for court filing.
File the Notarized Petition with the Court
Take the completed and notarized packet to the Clark County Family Court for filing. Once filed, the legal process for finalizing your divorce begins.
