About Zachariah
Biography
Zach earned his law degree from the University of Illinois, graduating magna cum laude, and has since taught several university-level law courses, published over 50 legal articles and a textbook.
For over a decade, Zach was a civil litigator and trial attorney who was able to win several multi-million dollar judgments, expose the vulnerabilities of business entities, engage in veil piercing to destroy the corporate shield that litigants thought protected them, and find creative and diverse means to effectuate collection. As a first-chair trial attorney, he has never lost. He is undefeated on appeal.
He also gained experience in administrative disputes, including with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), which gave him a unique insight into the inner workings of the financial planning industry.
For several years, Zach was the editor-in-chief of the Advocate, a bi-monthly publication of the Nevada Justice Association, an organization dedicated to advocating on behalf of consumers. He also was a member of the editorial committee for the Nevada State Bar's publication, “Contract Templates for Nevada Attorneys.”
He has one other book, Dumb Criminals & Overeager Cops: A Paralegal’s Guide to Criminal Law and Procedure, which explores how our criminal justice system came into being as a result of perpetrators and law enforcement officials overstepping their bounds. This is a required textbook for more than one institution’s paralegal course.
Zach has started several successful businesses, including a trial law firm, an RV rental business, a legal curriculum company, and a financial services law firm.
Along the way, Zach learned some unexpected lessons about how money works: how to earn it, grow it smarter, and keep more of it.
While thriving as a trial attorney, Zach partnered up with a tax expert and started a second law firm, The Fortune Law Firm, which was dedicated to helping clients with tax planning, investments, and retirement. Zach has since sold his trial practice to dedicate his efforts to the Fortune Law Firm, where he currently helps his clients create a comprehensive tax and asset-protection plan to help them keep more of what they earn.

There is no one better!
Zach helped me with a child custody case. He was very prompt in getting back to me with the answers to my questions that I had. He is smart, wise, and knowledgeable.
