Bruce graduated from the University of Nevada’s College of Business with a major in accounting. He began work in a Las Vegas accounting firm and received his Certified Public Accountant designation. Thereafter, Bruce worked for the international accounting firm of Peat, Marwick & Mitchell, the predecessor of KPMG, in San Francisco where he performed certified audits of major companies and later worked in the firm’s tax department. He also attended law school at night. After a short stint as an auditor with the newly created railroad entity Amtrak, he returned to Las Vegas to commence the practice of law. In 1977, Nevada’s current United States Senator Harry Reid and Bruce formed our present law firm which has grown from two lawyers to one of the largest, and oldest, in Nevada.
He is a member of the four most prestigious trial lawyer organizations in America. Membership in each of these organizations is by invitation only, and trial lawyers are invited to become members only after an extremely thorough screening process which includes references from judges and other practicing trial lawyers. These organizations are The International Academy of Trial Lawyers (membership is generally limited to 500 U.S. trial lawyers), The American College of Trial Lawyers (membership limited to 1% of the State Bar members), the American Board of Trial Advocates, Diplomate (ranking limited to those lawyers who have 100 or more civil jury verdicts), and The International Society of Barristers. Bruce is the only Nevada trial lawyer who is a member of all four of these organizations.
Bruce has an “AV Preeminent” rating with Martindale Hubbell, and is listed in Mountain States Super Lawyers and Business Edition Super Lawyers in the area of Civil Litigation Defense.
