About James
Having spent six years as a public defender in the Clark County Public Defender’s Office, Mr. Oronoz handled hundreds of complex cases. His experience was representing criminal defendants in a wide range of cases such as murder, drug possession, and more. As an excellent trial attorney, he has won a high number of acquittals, even in cases that others considered to be “unwinnable.” His time prior to private practice allowed him to shape his view of the law, basing the belief of the firm on providing the best possible representation to individuals who have suffered injustice.
Having started his private practice more than a decade ago, Mr. Oronoz continues his reputation as a renowned trial veteran. Since that time, he has helped successfully handle a number of cases with an array of charges, obtaining numerous not guilty verdicts. He has also guided hundreds of other individuals in receiving reduced sentences or complete dismissals when they face serious charges. On the other side of his practice, personal injury, he has worked diligently to recover compensation for many injury victims who, otherwise, may have had to deal with the costs of their injuries alone.
As an AV® Rated attorney by Martindale-Hubbell®, Mr. Oronoz has been singled out by his peers and local trial court judges for having the highest level of legal ability and professional standards.
Mr. Oronoz is proud to provide the gold standard in criminal defense and representing injured clients. He encourages anyone who is facing criminal charges or who have suffered injury because of someone else’s negligence to contact his office as soon as possible to discuss the next steps.
