Brian is the proud recipient of MYVEGAS Magazine’s Top 100 Lawyers, Super Lawyers’ Rising Stars, National Trial Lawyers’ Top 40 Under 40, and Real Vegas Magazine’s Most Magnificent Men. Prior to founding VASEK LAW, Brian was a judicial law clerk for the Honorable Michael P. Villani in the Eighth Judicial District Court of Nevada. As a law clerk, he observed dozens of jury trials and managed thousands of civil and criminal cases. Brian has also personally handled thousands of criminal cases with the Clark County Public Defender, one of the largest criminal defense firms in the State of Nevada, and as both a private attorney and an alternate public attorney for the City of Henderson. During each of these opportunities, Brian has now represented persons charged with attempted murder, sexual assault, child abuse, drug trafficking, robbery, home invasion, burglary, theft, solicitation, possession of a controlled substance, battery domestic violence, and driving under the influence. From felonies to misdemeanors, Brian has always sought to provide each case the time, attention, and care it deserved to achieve the best result possible for each client. He founded VASEK LAW in 2017 to provide this client-centered focus to a smaller group of persons facing the most serious of consequences personally and professionally.
Brian attended Ohio State University and graduated with a degree in Psychology and Criminology. During his studies, he also provided inpatient cognitive and behavioral therapy for children suffering from abuse and neglect. Brian then attended the William S. Boyd School of Law at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and graduated with the Dean’s Award and Pro Bono Honors for participating in the Community Service Committee, Partners in Pro Bono Program, Kids' Court School, Legal Aid Center of Southern Nevada (LACSN) Educational Surrogate Parent Program, and serving as the President of the Child Advocacy Law Association. Brian was also a Public Interest Fellow, a member of the Nevada Law Journal, and received the Carl W. Tobias Excellence in Writing Award for his student publication. During law school, Brian further served as a law clerk for the Clark County Public Defender, Student-Attorney for the Juvenile Justice Clinic, and legislative extern during the 78th Regular Session of the Nevada Legislature. While well-versed in criminal law, Brian is also experienced in government affairs, public policy, and victim advocacy.

I have coordinated a complicated matter with Brian over the last year. He has always been absolutely professional and great to work with. The short story long is, if you have a criminal matter for which you require legal counsel, I endorse Brian Vasek. When you compose one of these endorsements, this specific part of the lauding, has already populated the phrase, "I endorse this lawyer." I would have left it at that if it didn't look so lazy. However, "I endorse this lawyer," perfectly states my professional opinion of Brian Vasek. Specifically, I endorse this lawyer without reservation or hesitation. I have no caveats. Brian is compassionate, dedicated to learning and constantly improving, he is highly professional, and is just ,straight-up, a man of his word. Because of Brian's trustworthiness, I find him to be a crucial member of the legal community, and an indispensable resource for Southern Nevada residents.

I sought Brian's experience and guidance when one of my IP clients was falsely accused of a misdemeanor domestic violence matter. Brian has knowledge, know-how, and dexterity that I don't see in criminal lawyers with twenty more years of experience. He's truly a polished ace with high professional standards. What I also admire about Brian is his dedication to exactly what each client individually wants and he seeks a thorough understanding of their unique world views. For this reason, if anyone in my extended family needed help with a criminal matter, he is definitely my "go to person." I would pay whatever he asked, without hesitation.

Brian’s passion for and dedication to defending the rights of his clients is unparalleled. He is a skilled litigator and a true asset to the legal community.
Gwynne Dumbrigue, Criminal defense Attorney on Nov 16, 2017
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
Brian is well regarded in the legal community as a jurist whose research and writing is superb. His pleadings and motions often win legal arguments on their own merit. But Brian is also a competent and skilled litigator with a keen awareness of the art and power of choosing the right words to win his oral arguments. Still it is Brian’s decorum and fair play and integrity and likability that he is most respected for by his peers. I highly recommend and endorse this lawyer.
