I am a local resident who was educated in the public school system in Las Vegas, Nevada. I was involved in the boy scouts and rode horses at the old Day Dream ranch at Warm Springs and Eastern. I learned to swim at Sunset Park and climbed many local mountains in our valley with the Boy Scouts.

During this internship I spent 260 hours on the streets with patrol officers.. During my law school education at Gonzaga University, I studied in Vienna, Austria with Supreme Court Justice Scalia. My studies in three different universities in Belgium, France, and Austrian law schools allowed me the opportunity to gain an understanding of the international criminal justice system through various founders of the International Criminal Court in the Hague.. After graduation, I started working with John P. Fadgen. John was an outstanding criminal defense lawyer and a gentleman who everyone respected. First and foremost, John was a trial lawyer who had crafted his cross examination skills over the decades. His subtle cross examination style would impeach witness after witness.. I opened my first law office in 2001, in which I also was appointed to the CJA panel where I have tried four of the most lenghty and complex criminal trials in our District. United States v. Acosta (Hells Angels), United States v. Kahre (Four Month Tax Evasion Trial), United States v. Camez ( Computer Hacking) and United States v. Sellers (Complex Rico Prison Gang Trial). United States v. Bundy et al (Armed Stand-Off with federal agents) Mr Rasmussen represented Peter Santilli a journalist covering the events in real time.. These trials set the tone early in my career on how to properly defend persons charged with serious crimes.. I sit on the Indigent Defense Committee as the State Bar of Nevada representative. We evaluate lawyers to ensure indigent defendants are competently and passionately represented before our courts.. As a civil lawyer, I was accepted into the Multi-million Dollar Forum.
