Child Custody and Visitation
Do you believe you are making a lot of concessions concerningÂ child custodyÂ orÂ property division? Before you enter into a final divorce decree, we can see if there is a different arrangement that might be more beneficial. We are creative problem-solvers who know how to think outside the box.
Adoption
Paternity
At Pecos Law Group, we know how to best tackle paternity actions to maximize your time with your child. We understand the importance of your relationship with your child and will make sure your parental rights are protected.
Premarital Agreement
Second opinions are sought by family law litigants for several reasons. Maybe your spouse has presented you with a prenuptial agreement they want you to sign and you need to have it reviewed by an attorney. Perhaps you already have an attorney, but your instinct is telling you that the course of action they are taking is not right for your case. Even if your case is already over, a second opinion (if done within the deadlines) can help you determine if you need to move to set the judgment aside or file an appeal.
Guardianship
Individuals often consider guardianship when all other options have been exhausted. Perhaps an elderly family member is no longer able to take care of him or herself, or a childâ€™s parents are unfit to care for that child. Regardless of the situation, guardianship clients often come to us frustrated and overwhelmed.
Spousal Support
Mr. Lemcke received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science (with a specialization in International Relations) from Tulane University in New Orleans in 1985, and his law degree from the University of Notre Dame in 1988. During his second year of law school, he lived in London, England, and completed the Concannon International Law program at Notre Dameâ€™s campus on Albermarle Street in Mayfair. Mr. Lemcke has been admitted to practice law in Nevada since 1988, initially with Jones, Jones. Close & Brown, and then with Jones Vargas (the combined firm resulting from the 1997 merger of JJC&B and Vargas & Bartlett). For the last 23 years, he has practiced family law exclusively. Mr. Lemcke joined Pecos Law Group in 2012. Although his practice is now limited to the Family Division of Nevadaâ€™s state courts, he is also licensed in U.S. District Court and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. Mr. Lemcke has been a past lecturer at the annual meeting of the Family Law Section of the State Bar of Nevada, both on the legal primer for new lawyers and paralegals known as the Nuts and Bolts of Family Law, and on the subject of rehabilitative alimony. He also presented at the 2010 Nevada Judges Conference on the legal standards for attorneyâ€™s fees awards in Nevada state courts. Mr. Lemcke has been selected by his peers for inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America every year since 2005, and in Mountain States Super Lawyers every year since 2007. In 2012, and again in 2015, he was selected as Las Vegasâ€™ Family Lawyer of the Year by The Best Lawyers in America.
Annulment

Criminal Defense
We also provide second opinions for other types of legal matters, including whether to accept a plea for aÂ criminal defenseÂ charge. However, in all of these situations time is of the essence. There are statutes of limitations on filing a claim, an appeal or contesting a judgment or offer. The sooner you contact us for a second opinion, the sooner we can help you see what options are available and help you pursue them before time runs out.

Sex Crimes
According to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (NCADV), nearly half of Nevada women and over one-third of Nevada men will experience intimate partner violence, sexual assault, or stalking in their lifetimes. Nevada consistently ranks in the top five states in the nation for domestic violence fatalities.
Robbery
If an individual is the victim of a robbery, assault, or other crime at one of these properties, and the crime occurred due to a lack of adequate security by the property owner, there may be a cause of action against the property owner for negligence. Some examples of this negligence include things like inadequate lighting or insufficient security.
Assault
If you believe you may have a civil claim against someone for assault and battery, the attorneys at Pecos Law Group can help you evaluate and discuss your potential civil claim.
Juvenile Crimes

Employment Contract

We provide services for various contract types, including employment contracts, vendor contracts, business transaction. We will sit down with you and discuss the purpose of your contract and any concerns you have. Shortly after, we will provide you with a contract that you can either use as is or modify as needed. We can then schedule a follow-up meeting to discuss any concerns you have or any changes you would like to make. Your attorney will ensure that the final product is exactly what you want, so you will feel that the language in the contract protects your interests.

Premises Liability
Las Vegas is, obviously, a major tourist destination. Places like casinos and hotels have a duty to take reasonable measures to keep their premises safe for guests but, sometimes, they do not do so.
Property Damage
Automobile accidents can happen within a split second, but the effects may last a lifetime. It is recommended that whether you are the victim of a vehicle crash or a slip and fall, you should get to a safe location and photograph, video, etc., the scene or property damage as soon as you are able. The next thing most people do is file an insurance claim with either their insurance company, or the at fault driverâ€™s company, or both. Do not speak with the insurance company without legal representation, even if it is your own company. Insurance companies do not have your best interests in mind, it is their bottom line that is on their mind.Â At Pecos Law Group, we ensure that you receive the treatment necessary to heal, along with a legal team who will fight for you when dealing with the insurance companies.

Personal Injury
An owner of a store, hotel, restaurant, or other business has a duty to provide a reasonably safe premises for individuals who enter. This means that precautions must be taken for your safety while you are visiting. If you slip and fall while inside the business, you likely have a claim against the owner for personal injury when the owner either knew or should have known that a danger existed. For example, when an owner fails to hire someone to walk the store premises to check for spills or other hazards, that owner will likely be held responsible for injuries stemming from a hazard that the owner should have known about and fixed. If a slippery substance spills onto the floor in a grocery store, it can remain on the floor undisturbed until another shopper falls on the substance and sustains serious injury. If the owner cannot show that reasonable precautions were taken, such as routine inspections, then the owner will have to pay for the injuries and damages that result. On the other hand, if the owner does take reasonable precautions and, in our example, the spill occurs a minute after the area was inspected, then the owner may not be held responsible because he/she acted reasonably diligent in discovery the hazard.
Medical Malpractice
Robins Kaplan Miller & Ciresi (previously Simke Chodos Silberfeld & Anteau) Los Angeles, California June 1991 to May 1997 Practice focus: toxic torts, medical malpractice
Auto Accidents
Dog Bites
Unlike other states, Nevada does not have a statute for strict liability for dog bites. Strict liability dog bite statutes essentially state that dog owners are responsible for injuries caused by their dog biting someone else.
