From offices in Reno, Las Vegas and Carson City, McDonald Carano provides legal services and government affairs advice to startups, corporations, trade associations, nonprofits, public entities, high-net-worth individuals, investors, and public-private partnerships throughout Nevada. In 2023 we earned the first "Partner in Diversity, Equity & Inclusion" medallion from the State Bar of Nevada.

We are the only remaining Nevada-headquartered full-service statewide law firm that helped establish Nevada’s legal community when we were founded in 1949. We have helped shape the legal, business, and government landscape in Nevada for more than 70 years. Many of our lawyers, government relations advisors, and professional lobbyists are third and fourth generation Nevadans with deep ties to our great State. McDonald Carano proudly continues to thrive as an independent Nevada law firm.

In addition to local, national, and international businesses with interests across Nevada, our clients include law firms that do not have offices in Nevada but have clients that need local assistance with transactions, litigation, or government affairs in Nevada. We are also experts in helping businesses relocate to and/or expand in Nevada. Our reputation as the go-to law firm in Nevada is underscored by our role as the exclusive Nevada firm in both Meritas (a global network of full-service business law firms) and State Law Resources (a national network of government affairs and lobbying law firms).

Recognition of our legal expertise is demonstrated by receiving more Practice Group rankings than any other law firm in Nevada from Chambers 2022, the global legal profession's most respected resource for selecting outside counsel.
