Las Vegas personal injury attorney Brandon Verde is passionate about fighting for the best resolutions possible for his clients. Unlike most attorneys who have only a J.D. degree, Brandon also earned an LL.M.--short for Master of Laws--from the prestigious George Washington Law School in Washington, D.C., in the area of Litigation and Dispute Resolution. This specialized education has given him an invaluable edge in negotiating large financial settlements for accident victims as well as case dismissals for defendants facing criminal charges.
Brandon completed impressive stints at the Federal Public Defender's office in Washington D.C., the Public Defender's Office in Naples Florida, the Office of Criminal Conflict and Civil Regional Counsel in Fort Myers, Florida, and the Legal Studies Institute at the Georgetown Law Center in Washington, D.C. He excelled at Moot Court at Ave Maria School of Law. And he received his undergraduate degree from UNLV.

Brandon is a tenacious and zealous litigator and advocate for his clients. I have relied on his insights into litigation in numerous pre-litigation and litigation matters over the years, which have paid dividends. If you're in need of a brilliant trial attorney who'd committed to integrity, advocacy, and his clients best interest, you'll find no better attorney in Las Vegas.
