Aggressive Las Vegas Criminal Defense Lawyer
When you hire a criminal defense attorney, you want to know that he or she has been there before and has what it takes to properly handle your case. You want somebody who has a comprehensive understanding of the law and can protect your rights above all else. There is a lot at stake in criminal cases. Be sure you have a strong ally in your corner.
Since 1981, the law firm of Mace Yampolsky & Associates has been defending the rights of clients throughout southern Nevada. From my offices in Las Vegas, I handle all types of criminal law cases from DUI litigation to criminal appeals. I believe that there is nothing more important than your rights and I will fight vigorously to see that they are protected.
The Right Experience for Your Case
I earned my bachelor's degree in political science and economics from Boston University and went on to law school at the University of San Diego School of Law where I received my law degree in 1981. In 1995, I received my master's degree in applied psychology from the University of Santa Monica. I am a regular contributor to the Las Vegas Tribune and the Nevada Attorneys for Criminal Justice quarterly newsletter.
I have been recognized by the State Bar of Nevada as a Certified Criminal Specialist and by the National Board of Trial Advocacy as a Certified Criminal Trial Advocate. I have also received an AV peer rating* under the Martindale-Hubbell peer review system. This is the highest possible rating available.
I am a skilled litigator and I am proud of my track record in cases that have gone to trial. I have considerable experience in criminal appeals and have successfully argued a death penalty case before the U.S. Supreme Court.
I am admitted to practice in Nevada state and federal courts as well as other jurisdictions including California, New Jersey, Colorado, Washington and the District of Columbia.
