Mr. Morris is a diverse individual with many interests. Unlike other
attorneys, Mr. Morris was working on an advanced degree in an unrelated field
when he had a calling to become an attorney and he instantly switched from his science based
studies to law. Mr. Morris has owned a
retail store, has written computer software and has been on the Board of several
non-profit corporations, including the SPCA of Northern Nevada.
After graduating from law school, Mr. Morris based his practice on "righting
wrongs" and started a heavy practice in civil rights and employment law such as
wrongful terminations and discrimination. His law practice philosophy led
him to a specialized area of Tribal and Indian Law where he has represented many
Tribes and their members. He was eventually asked to be a judge for the
Appellate Court for the Nevada Tribes and he served as a justice for this
Inter-Tribal Court of Appeals of Nevada for several years.
Mr. Morris has received published decisions in both Federal and State Courts and
he is currently licensed in the following courts: all Nevada
Courts including the Nevada Supreme Court, Nevada Federal Courts, Ninth Circuit Federal Court of Appeals and multiple Indian and Tribal Courts.
