Practice Areas: Criminal Defense , Motor Vehicle Accidents, Personal Injury, Criminal Defense, Criminal Defense, Criminal Defense
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.  My father was a professor at UNLV and my mother worked as a registered nurse at sunrise for 30 years.  Las Vegas has provided a vibrant environment for me to thrive as a child.. During my college years at UNLV, I worked as a student worker in the the athletic facilities which included the North gym where coach Tarkanian conducted his daily practices.. As a criminal justice major I participated in a 260 hour internship with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Southwest Area Command.  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.  This is reserved for trial lawyers who have received multiple verdicts and settlements in excess of one million dollars.  I have settled and tried multiple million dollar cases.  I have continued a long tradition of representing persons injuried by others negligence and intentional acts.. My firm has served as legal counsel since the birth of the Las Vegas Tribune, a local newspaper.  I have defended multiple attempts to restrain the content of the Tribune.  My partner and I have defended without a single defeat every attempt to restrain or intimidate the Tribune with frivolous litigation.. We look forward to consulting with prospective clients who expect the highest level of legal representation.

Beyond handling cases in Las Vegas/Clark County, I am the ONLY lawyer who regularly appears in Tonopah and Beatty (Northern Nye County), and Goldfield (Esmeralda County); I have compiled a record of excellence in those Courts.. Because I am there frequently, I do not have to make a special trip every time I need to be in Court for your case.  This means I can provide better service for less money.. When it's time to hire a lawyer in those locations, ask the other guys whether they have ever won jury trials in Tonopah and Goldfield, then make the smart call -- to me at or.

Byron Bergeron

Firm: Law Office of Byron Bergeron
3165 Idlewild Dr. , Reno , Nevada 89509
Practice Areas: Criminal Defense
I am one of the best attorneys in the state, top three. I do not care about an AVVO rating.. Before I begin, DO NOT ASK QUESTIONS THAT MAY INCRIMINATE YOU! IT CAN MAKE YOUR CASE WORSE! IT IS A FLAWED CONCEPT THAT YOU CAN ASK QUESTIONS ON THE INTERNET AND THAT IT WON'T BE USED AGAINST YOU. THEY CAN AND WILL TRACE YOUR IP ADDRESS.  THESE RATINGS ARE PAID FOR. EXAMINE CLIENT REVIEWS NOT RATINGS.. Scroll down and view cases. Victories are the only thing that matter. If you do not win, they will not respect you and you will not get a negotiation that benefits your client. I include misdemeanor victories because your case matters to me even though the charges are small. A small charge to me is a big charge to you. I will drive a corrupt judge off the bench if necessary even if it is only a misdemeanor. By drive him off the bench, I mean he threw his hands in the air and declared a mistrial and double jeopardy attached, case dismissed. He later lost his election and is no longer a judge. You either win or you don't.. I also do not pay for my awards my industry recognition comes from the judges and colleagues with whom I practice. You can bet they recognize me.. Many criminal defense attorneys claim they are litigators. It sounds great. But litigators are those attorneys that go to trial and have gone to trial. They make their living fighting in the trenches of the legal profession. Litigators know that those clients who are not represented by those few who are familiar with the trenches, are not represented by the most capable, experienced and compelling criminal defense attorneys within the profession. There are very few real litigators. Most cases settle or resolve without litigation.. You do not have to take my word for it. I am a litigator. Evidence of my victories hangs on my wall for everyone to see for themselves. It is the only way a person hiring an attorney can know for sure that he or she is in fact hiring a litigator. I give free consultations so people may see how I present in court, how I articulate my thoughts and they can see for themselves who they are choosing to hire. Would you buy a car if they charged you money to view it? Of course not, you would think that dishonest.. I am the only one that answers my phone. I am available 24 hours a day seven days a week and if you want legal advice i will give it for free. If you like me, then you can hire me. But you won't speak to a secretary.. None of my fees are represented by this site. This site does not give me the option of explaining my fees. Call me I will give you as much information as I can, for free. I am confident you will hire me if you speak with me. Preliminary legal knowledge before you hire a lawer is paramount.
