At Adras & Altig, Attorneys at Law, our Nevada criminal defense lawyers are passionate about criminal law and helping others. Our legal team is committed to sharing our knowledge and experience with the legal community and the public to help demystify the criminal justice system.
This year, we are thrilled to be participating as speakers and presenters, along with The Vieira Firm, in the NAACP Las Vegas branch’s 2024 Legal Education Series, “What the Fuzz?” We believe that arming yourself with knowledge about the legal and criminal justice system is one of the most powerful things you can do to protect yourself and your legal rights, and we’re excited for this opportunity to engage and educate the public.
