Erik H Zentz Las Vegas Criminal Lawyer

I have lived in Las Vegas for much of my life. I went to high school at Silverado and attended UNLV for my undergraduate degree in Criminal Justice. While in college I worked in the hotel industry as a Front Desk clerk/manager at the Treasure Island Hotel and Casino.

After graduating from the Thomas Jefferson School of Law in San Diego I promptly moved back to Las Vegas and started working as a prosecutor. During my time as a prosecutor I learned the ins and outs of criminal and DUI law and tried hundreds of criminal and DUI cases. I soon decided that I wanted to defend people instead of trying to put them in jail, so I switched sides.As a prosecutor and as a defense attorney I have had the opportunity to take thousands of cases to trial, winning often. I love going to trial and being in court, that’s why I have ultimately chosen to be a criminal defense attorney.

Another thing that I love to do is getting to play rugby. I am on the local Las Vegas team, the Las Vegas Blackjacks. Rugby is a tough, competitive sport which cultivates a never give up attitude, which I apply to my performance for my clients.

I love competition. I will compete in the courtroom for you as hard as I compete on the field. I will take that toughness and competitiveness from the field to the courtroom and in to trial and I won’t stop working until I get you the BEST possible result.

If you or someone you love has been accused or arrested for a crime in Las Vegas don’t let it ruin the rest of your life by choosing the wrong attorney. I know Las Vegas and how good the people that live and vacation here are, and I will work hard to give you the BEST defense. As they say, “For the BEST defense call Erik Zentz.”
