Van Law Firm Community Services

  • Employed over 50 people in my law firm, Van Law Firm, and not one person was laid off during the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • A strong believer in serving the greater good and helping people from all walks of life with many different adversities. For example, I took on the local Las Vegas case of Nhu “Annie” Ngoc Nguyen pro bono. Annie was a 53-year-old mother of three working at Crystal Nails and Spa when she was tragically run over by a client who refused to pay for a $35 manicure. I represented Annie’s family and assisted them as they navigated through the legal process. In fact, I encourage all my attorneys at Van Law Firm to provide pro bono legal advice to underserved members of the Las Vegas community.
  • Awarded the Pro Bono solo practitioner of the year in 2016 by Nevada Legal Services.
  • Have a strong belief in helping the community through donations, service, and time. I donated school supplies to the local Las Vegas community through the Clark County School District.
  • During the pandemic, donated $25,000 in PPE equipment to frontline medical workers and 5 laptops to local Las Vegas students so that they could attend school from home.
  • Volunteered my time at Three Square, a member of Feeding America, by organizing and packaging food for hungry community members. I donated enough to pay for 30,000 meals through Three Square.

I also sent out a call to action to my network to sponsor 60 additional Ukrainian refugee families during the Ukrainian war.
