Brandi M. Segura, Esq.

Brandi primarily practices in the areas of estate and legacy planning, business litigation and business advisement. Brandi also trains companies in the prevention of workplace harassment and discrimination, risk management and deposition preparation. 

Brandi is practically a Las Vegas native having lived in the city for most of her life. Brandi was raised in a working-class family of modest means, and from an early age her father encouraged her to be an attorney, recognizing her talent for critical thinking, strategic analysis and ability to argue. 

Brandi attended UNLV where she graduated magna cum laude with a degree in communications. She initially began her career as a public relations professional at one of Las Vegas’ top advertising firms where she crafted corporate communication messaging for a number of clients in the construction, gaming, real estate and healthcare fields. However, the lure of the law proved too great to ignore, so Brandi enrolled in the night program at the William S. Boyd School of Law—all while continuing to work full time during the day. 

Brandi is truly passionate about the practice of law, and is happiest when she is crafting creative solutions for her clients’ legal problems. Her clients, which include developers, contractors, business owners, and individuals in a number of high-exposure manners count on her when they need an aggressive attorney who handles cases with the utmost professionalism. Brandi’s client and case management skills are renowned in legal circles, and clients know they are always a priority and always kept informed. With additional experience in government affairs under her belt, she brings her vast amounts of positive energy, grit and determination when developing effective legal strategies for Lex Domus Law. 

Outside of her work as an attorney, Brandi enjoys reading, yoga and traveling every chance she can.

Dan attended the University of Richmond where he obtained his B.A. in Economics. After moving to New York City and working in internal accounting for companies like Prudential Securities and Credit Suisse First Boston, he returned to Las Vegas to attend the UNLV MBA program.
