Tom Pitaro knows the law, and is well-known in Las Vegas legal circles, but his tactics are always the same: delay, delay, delay. And you know the saying: Justice delayed is justice denied. These continuous delaying tactics have a major impact on the victims’ lives and mental well-being.

Consider the case of the State of Nevada v. Robert Jackson, Case No. C274436. The state is bringing a case against Jackson, who has been accused of shooting four people on the Strip on Aug. 19, 2007. It was an apparent gang fight, except only bystanders were hit with bullets. That was 2007. It’s now 2013. Jackson avoided capture for four years, but even factoring that in, he still hasn’t come to trial. It’s been two years. And Tom Pitaro has engineered almost every delay, using every legal stalling tactic -- in short, every trick in the book -- to keep his client out of the courtroom to face the charges. You name it -- calendar oversights, Jackson present in court without Pitaro, his lawyer, bail battles ... This trial has been continued six times from July 2011 to now. Five of these continuances have been at the hands of Pitaro. And now the new trial date has been set for June 16, 2014. This crime occurred in 2007 and the defendant has yet to be tried.

Yeah, thanks for all that, Tom Pitaro.

How can guy like Jackson – who has a supposed start-up photo/video business and can’t meet with clients because of his house-arrest restrictions, who has to take care of his elderly incontinent grandparents, and who has fathered another child since returning to Las Vegas – how on earth can he afford representation from the likes of Tom Pitaro, who is known to command substantial legal fees? After all, he was one of the attorneys who was on O.J. Simpson’s defense team. That’s a question the prosecutors should ask.

Is Tom Pitaro still smart enough to pull the wool over Clark County D.A. Steven Wolfson’s eyes?

Beware of Attorney Tom Pitaro - He'll Bleed You Then Plead You!

AUTHOR: 1Adam - (USA)

POSTED: Monday, March 16, 2015

As the headline says, beware of this Las Vegas attorney, Tom Pitaro. He's not satisfied with doing an honest day's work apparently. It looks like he likes to get his hooks in you and then bleed you dry. 

This guy's a real P&B ... and that's not to be confused with the sandwich spread known as peanut butter. In this case, P&B means "pleader" and "bleeder." Don't be fooled by him. In my opinion, Pitaro likes to plead down a case and then bleed you dry in fees. This guy's track record supports that, as does my dealings with him. But all you need to do is check out a case against a woman who tried to burn down her pet store with animals locked in their cages; but she got caught. Just Google "Las Vegas pet store owner Gloria Lee" and you should find it pretty quickly. 

Guess who's the attorney on that case? Tom Pitaro. And his ineffective handling of that case is abundantly clear to anyone paying attention. Let's just say his client is dangling, swinging in the wind. 

Be ready with lots of cash on hand with this guy. He'll suck you dry for every penny you've got and then will move away, ready to pounce on his next victim(s). The ultimate bleeder and pleader, in my opinion.
