Overview
As one of the founding partners of Maurice Wood, Aaron Maurice is a highly regarded attorney with more than 25 years practicing in complex commercial litigation, with an emphasis in title and real estate litigation. Aaron also has experience litigating state and federal excise and use tax cases and defending clients in professional malpractice and catastrophic personal injury actions.
As a result of his reputation in the courtroom and the legal community, Aaron has been asked to serve as lead counsel in many cases outside Nevada. To date, he has accepted such representation in cases pending in federal and state courts in Alaska, Arizona, California, Illinois, Kentucky, Utah, and Washington D.C. Aaron has also been engaged to consult on litigation in Australia, Germany, and Switzerland.
Aaron handles litigation matters in all state and federal courts in Nevada and California, as well as disputes subject to mandatory and contractual arbitration and regularly represents clients in hearings before various administrative boards.
Personal
When he is not working, Aaron can be found going on long walks with his wife, Rebecca, attending academic competitions with his daughter, or cheering on his son at one of the Valley’s many golf courses.
Mr. Maurice is an avid sports fan (traveling multiple times throughout the year to root on his favorite teams (he bleeds Dodger blue!)) and he loves classic movies (if he could only have one channel, it would be TCM).
