Ropers, Majeski, Kohn & Bentley Enters Southwest with Addition of Las Vegas Office
Ropers, Majeski, Kohn & Bentley, P.C. has opened an office in Las Vegas and added attorney Timothy J. Lepore as an associate.
- Las Vegas, NV-AZ (1888PressRelease) January 05, 2016 - Ropers, Majeski, Kohn & Bentley, P.C. (RMKB), a multi-service law firm offering litigation and transactional services nationally and internationally, has opened an office in Las Vegas at 3455 Cliff Shadows Parkway. This marks the seventh office for the firm. In addition, attorney Timothy J. Lepore joins the Las Vegas office as an associate.
"Las Vegas has long been on our radar, as it allows us to better access and service clients - across our diverse practice areas - operating in the tax-friendly confines of the Silver State," said Michael J. Ioannou, firm chairman. "Our decision to open an office in Nevada was driven by many factors, including offering an in-state resource to insurers and gaining access to one of the truly top-tier entertainment and hospitality locations in the world. The legal needs of these industries dovetail with our strong litigation and transactional practices, and this location complements our presence in similar markets such as Los Angeles and New York."
Lepore is a member of RMKB's Insurance Services, Corporate and Litigation practice areas. He joins the firm from Phillips, Spallas & Angstadt LLP's Las Vegas office, where he litigated premises liability actions on behalf of Fortune 500 companies and assisted in all aspects of trial preparation. Lepore is a graduate of the University of California, Hastings College of the Law (J.D., 2013) and San Diego State University (B.A., 2010).
Lepore is joined in the Las Vegas office by RMKB Partner Stephen J. Erigero, who will split his time between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. Erigero is dual-licensed in California and Nevada as are attorneys Spencer C. Martinez and Michon M. Spinelli.
"The impetus for this move is truly finding ways to better service our clients," said Erigero. "This office provides us access to dynamic marketplaces, in both Las Vegas and throughout the Southwest."
