Vegas Inc presents 2022 Top Lawyers

Thu, Jun 30, 2022 (2 a.m.)

Lawyers are essential to the fabric of the justice system. They work to represent all parties fairly and fully, and they play a necessary role in ensuring that justice rendered is the result of adequate, thorough representation. A trusted lawyer is a powerful ally.

The 2022 Top Lawyers list represents the best in our community, as recommended by their peers, clients, and colleagues. The large part of this list is the result of a peer-nominated review. We sent more than 3,000 surveys to practicing attorneys in Southern Nevada, inviting them to submit their recommendations for Top Lawyers in a variety of different fields. The peer-nominated list is an opportunity to recognize some of the most well-regarded legal professionals in the Valley, and it’s a resource for the public—these are the lawyers that lawyers hire. 

In addition to the peer-nominated list, there’s a section of Community Choice honorees, nominated by clients, friends and the community at large. The Community Choice section is comprised of several unique recognitions: Lifetime Achievement, Community Exemplary, Trailblazer, Up & Coming, Pro Bono and Customer Care. These honorees were selected by a judging panel of legal experts.

Celebrate our 2022 Top Lawyers with us at the Las Vegas Ballpark tonight. RSVP here.

The 2022 Vegas Inc Top Lawyers originally appeared in a special issue of Vegas Inc found inside of Las Vegas Weekly. Sign up to get each of Vegas Inc’s special publications delivered to your inbox on the day of their release.
