Services
Criminal Defense
Our criminal defense practice handles all felony and misdemeanor charges in Nevada courts, including domestic violence, DUI, drug offenses, and casino-related crimes. With over 32 years of experience and a former part-time District Court Judge, we employ strategic defenses based on constitutional violations, procedural errors, and evidentiary challenges. Our proven track record includes case dismissals, charge reductions, and successful trial outcomes for clients facing serious criminal allegations.
Personal Injury
We represent clients in personal injury cases resulting from auto accidents, medical malpractice, and premises liability. Our firm secures compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering through settlements or litigation. With millions recovered in verdicts and settlements, including $2.875 million in a wrongful death case, we provide aggressive advocacy while maintaining direct client communication throughout the legal process.
Medical Malpractice
Our medical malpractice practice addresses diagnostic errors, treatment failures, and substandard care by healthcare providers. We handle complex cases involving surgical errors, birth injuries, and misdiagnosis, with experience in Nevada's medical malpractice panels. Successful recoveries include $1.5 million for spinal injury malpractice, demonstrating our ability to navigate intricate medical evidence and expert testimony requirements.
Warrant Resolution
We specialize in quashing criminal and traffic warrants to prevent arrests and license suspensions. Our services include immediate court appearances, motion filings, and resolution of outstanding bench warrants. With familiarity in local court procedures, we often resolve warrants the same day while protecting clients' rights and minimizing penalties associated with failure-to-appear situations.
Auto Accidents
We handle auto accident cases involving severe injuries, uninsured motorists, and complex liability issues. Our representation includes traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, and wrongful death claims. With courtroom experience and negotiation skills, we secure compensation for medical treatment, lost income, and future care needs, ensuring clients receive full value for their injury claims without upfront legal fees.
