Zumpano Patricios & Helsten leadership reflects the entire firm’s legacy of excellence and inclusivity in law
LAS VEGAS – Zumpano Patricios announced the promotion of Amanda J. Brookhyser to Managing Partner of its Las Vegas office, Zumpano Patricios & Helsten. Ms. Brookhyser, who previously served as Partner-In-Charge of that office, has been a key figure in the firm’s national trial practice, focusing on delivering high impact sophisticated legal solutions including high-stakes commercial litigation, business disputes, and civil litigation.
A Las Vegas native with more than 15 years of experience as an accomplished trial attorney, litigator, and advisor, Ms. Brookhyser’s leadership milestone reflects Zumpano Patricios’ diversity-rich heritage and its ongoing commitment to empowering attorneys from diverse backgrounds.
“Amanda’s promotion is a notable moment for our firm,” said Joseph Zumpano, President and Managing Shareholder of Zumpano Patricios. “It not only honors her professional success, demonstrated leadership, and dedication to serving our clients, but also reflects our tradition of diversity in the legal profession—a value we hold deeply as part of our firm’s identity.”
Notably, Zumpano Patricios was ranked the Most Diverse Law firm in the State of Florida in 2008 and made history through its commitment to neurodiversity in the workplace – including by hiring the state’s first openly autistic attorney in 2019.
“I am honored to step into this role as Managing Partner of our Las Vegas office,” said Ms. Brookhyser. “I look forward to continuing to build on the firm’s diverse legacy and delivering high quality results for our clients while contributing to the Las Vegas community as a whole.”
