Dominic Gentile - Director

Dominic Gentile recently left a high-profile private practice at Gentile DePalma for one of the state's oldest law firms, Gordon & Silver.

In the nearly 30 years Gentile has practiced law in Las Vegas, he has created a name for himself as a tough criminal defense attorney, specializing in white-collar crime, First Amendment law and homicide. Gentile is more than a keen litigator.

He is deeply involved in ethics debates and has taught in law schools around the country, including the Boyd School of Law.

Born in Chicago and educated at Depaul University (both his bachelor's and law degrees), Gentile spent two years as an associate dean of the National College of Criminal Defense Lawyers and Public Defenders in Houston before making Las Vegas his home.
