Celebrating Over 75 Years of Serving Nevada’s Legal, Business, Government, and Civic Communities
Nevada’s “Best Up & Coming Attorneys” 2026
McDonald Carano proudly announces that six attorneys in our Reno and Las Vegas offices are recognized as “Best Up & Coming Attorneys” in Nevada Business Magazine’s 2026 list of “Nevada’s most respected legal professionals chosen by their peers.” The list is created from a peer review survey of attorneys admitted to practice in Nevada. Best Up & Coming Attorneys are under 40 years of age and licensed to practice in Nevada for 10 years or less.
The “Best Up & Coming Attorneys” list is part of Nevada Business Magazine’s annual list of “Top Rank Attorneys” which is described as “representing the best of the best in the legal industry. The lawyers who make it on the list are at the top of their fields.” Only 3% of licensed attorneys in Nevada make the list. We also congratulate Zach Besso, Ian DeValliere, and Jane Susskind on receiving recognition as both “Best Up & Coming Attorneys” and “Top Rank Attorneys.”
