Aaron D. Lovaas is a partner in Las Vegas office of Newmeyer & Dillion. As a transactional business law attorney and business litigator, Aaron helps his clients understand their options in tackling both business opportunities and challenges.  Unique to Aaron’s experience is his deep blend of transactional and litigation skills, enabling him to spot the legal issues from the perspectives of both a transactional attorney and litigator.  Aaron also brings to the table his perspective as a business owner, having owned and managed his own boutique law firm for twelve (12) years.  Aaron has substantial experience representing both transactional and litigation clients across the business spectrum in industries as diverse as real estate development, construction, manufacturing, telecommunications, financial services, nightclub management, and petroleum franchising, to name a few.  Additionally, throughout his career, Aaron has been engaged by not only local and national clients, but also by clients located internationally.  Aaron has represented clients from Australia, Canada, Germany, Israel, Russia and other global locations, all with business interests or litigation matters in Nevada.

LITIGATION
Over the course of his career, Aaron has helped hundreds of clients resolve personal and business disputes through negotiation, mediation, arbitration, trials and appeals.  In doing so, Aaron continuously advises his clients not only as to their legal rights and remedies, but also as to the economic, emotional and time consuming tolls of litigation, creating a holistic approach to litigation strategy.  Aaron regularly appears in State, Federal and Bankruptcy Courts.

TRANSACTIONAL
In his transactional practice, Aaron helps entrepreneurs, established companies, and business owners of almost every kind successfully maneuver through the issues of entity formation, governance, acquisitions, sales, and general business contracts in a wide variety of business fields.  Aaron routinely represents clients from the inception of a transaction through its closing and applies a thoughtful, client-specific approach to each transaction.

ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Aaron readily recognizes that it makes economic, business and often emotional sense to take advantage of opportunities to resolve disputes by alternative means.  To this end, Aaron is occasionally engaged as a private mediator, assisting parties to burgeoning disputes reach sensible and creative solutions.  Aaron also serves as an arbitrator through private engagement, as well as on a court-appointed basis, through the Eighth Judicial District Court-Annexed Arbitration Program in Clark County, Nevada.
