A special search feature on the Clark County Clerk’s web pages makes it easier for entrepreneurs to find new businesses that may need the services they provide.
The Clerk’s web pages enables searches for businesses by the date they file their fictitious firm name with the County. Using this search, an entrepreneur could create a list of the newest businesses in the County.
“A new business can have various needs, ranging from accounting and advertising to printing and web design,” County Clerk Diana Alba said. “This search feature makes it easier for established businesses that provide those services to identify potential clients.”
When starting a new business, one of the first steps is to officially register the name of that business, which is done by filing a fictitious firm name with the Clerk’s Office.
To perform this search, go to the Clerk’s main web page, which is available through the County website at www.ClarkCountyNV.gov.
Once on the Clerk’s web page, go to “Records Search” on the left side of the screen, and then click on “Fictitious Name Search.”
Click “Continue to search page” and then select the “Document Type” tab. Enter the beginning and ending dates you want to search. Under “Allowed Document Types” click on the “+” sign next to “General.” When the drop-down menu appears, check the box for “Fictitious Firm Name.” Then select “Search.”
