Home Means Nevada to Dan Gilliam
My name is Dan Gilliam and I was born and raised in a small town in Ohio. After graduating from Port Clinton High School, I attended The Ohio State University where I got my Bachelor’s Degree in Education (1996), my Master’s Degree in Education (1997) and my Juris Doctorate Degree (2004).
I took four years between my graduate program and law school to devote my time to working with underprivileged youth at a residential treatment facility. I started out as line staff and worked my way up to Program Director before I decided to further my education.
Upon finishing my legal studies, I immediately moved to Las Vegas to begin my career as an attorney. I started by working for the Clark County Public Defender’s Office in 2005, where I represented thousands of individuals charged with crimes ranging from minor misdemeanors to major felonies.
Dan Gilliam’s Priorities
-
Meaning our citizens, our officers, our victims and yes…even the accused.
-
Regardless of financial or social status, everyone should have access to protecting their rights and receiving fair treatment.
-
Operating the courtroom in a timely fashion and ensuring that nothing is done “behind closed doors.”
