Litigation is what happens when a dispute can no longer be negotiated. The Jimmerson Law Firm has been trying cases in Clark County since 1977 — in the Eighth Judicial District Court, on appeal before the Nevada appellate courts, and in federal court.
What Sets a Trial Firm Apart
Many firms describe themselves as litigators and settle nearly everything. That is not a criticism of settlement — most cases should settle, and settling well is a skill. But the value of a settlement is set by what the other side believes will happen if the case is tried. A firm that does not try cases negotiates from a weaker position, whether or not anyone says so out loud.
We try cases. That fact does more work in a negotiation than any argument we could make in a letter.

The Advantage of Breadth
Because Nevada businesses are overwhelmingly closely held and family-owned, disputes here refuse to stay in one category. A commercial case turns out to involve a family trust. A divorce turns on the value of a company. An estate fight reaches into a business one heir manages.
Our firm also does the transactional work — entity formation, trust drafting, estate and asset planning — that produces the documents these cases are fought over. When a dispute crosses those lines, it stays one matter with one team, rather than three firms each seeing a fragment.
