Current Title	Associate Attorney	Verified (firm website + Martindale)
Current Firm	Pitaro & Fumo, Chtd.	Verified (multiple sources)
Office Address	601 Las Vegas Blvd. South, Las Vegas, NV 89101	Verified (firm website, Yelp)

Firm Website	fumolaw.com	Verified

Notes: Martindale-Hubbell lists her office at 500 South Fourth St., Las Vegas, NV 89101, which may reflect a prior or alternate firm address. The firm website and Yelp confirm the 601 Las Vegas Blvd. South address.

2. Bar Admissions and Licensing

Jurisdiction	Status	Bar/License Number	Admission Year	Confidence
State of Nevada (all courts)	Active (presumed)	ISLN 1000447666	2019	Verified (web search metadata; Martindale)
U.S. District Court, District of Nevada	Admitted	Not independently confirmed	Not confirmed	Likely accurate (firm website claim; not independently verified via PACER)

Disciplinary History: No public disciplinary actions found in any search. The Nevada State Bar’s public discipline database did not return results for Julie Speraw. [Verified — no public discipline found]

Notes: The bar number (ISLN 1000447666) was surfaced via search result metadata referencing the State Bar of Nevada directory. Direct confirmation via the State Bar’s “Find a Lawyer” tool was not possible through web search alone. A manual lookup at nvbar.org is recommended for final verification.

3. Education

Degree	Institution	Honors/Notes	Confidence
Juris Doctor (J.D.)	UNLV William S. Boyd School of Law	N/A	Verified (firm website, Martindale)
Bachelor of Arts, Criminal Justice	University of Nevada, Reno	Magna Cum Laude	Verified (firm website); graduation year not publicly confirmed
Minor: Addiction Treatment Services	University of Nevada, Reno	Concurrent with B.A.	Likely accurate (firm website only; not independently verified)

Notes: The magna cum laude honor is stated on the firm biography and echoed in Martindale-Hubbell metadata but has not been independently confirmed through UNR records (which are not publicly searchable). No graduation years are publicly disclosed for either degree.

4. Practice Areas

Area	Confidence
Criminal Defense	Verified (firm website, Martindale, LawInfo)
Personal Injury	Likely accurate (listed on Martindale profile metadata)
DUI Defense	Likely accurate (firm practice area; individual attribution not confirmed)
Federal Criminal Defense	Likely accurate (firm lists federal crimes practice; she holds federal court admission)

Notes: The firm website emphasizes criminal defense as her primary focus. Martindale-Hubbell metadata also references Commercial Litigation, Arbitration & Mediation, Appeals & Legal Issues, and State Attorneys General Practice — these may be auto-generated or firm-level tags rather than her individual practice. [Needs client confirmation]

5. Professional Experience

Role	Organization	Timeframe	Confidence
Associate Attorney	Pitaro & Fumo, Chtd.	Current (start date unknown)	Verified
Intern	Clark County Public Defender’s Office	During law school	Likely accurate (firm bio only; not independently verified)
Law Clerk	Local civil law firm (unnamed)	During law school	Likely accurate (firm bio only; firm not identified)

Notes: No prior employment history beyond law school roles is publicly available. Her LinkedIn profile appears to be under a different professional identity (SkyWest Airlines affiliation visible in search results), which may predate her legal career. [Needs client confirmation on career timeline]

6. Publications and Scholarship

Publication	Role	Timeframe	Confidence
UNLV Gaming Law Journal	Staff Member	2 years (during law school)	Likely accurate (firm bio only)

Notes: A search of the UNLV Gaming Law Journal’s online archive (scholars.law.unlv.edu/glj/) did not surface any authored articles by Julie Speraw. Staff membership on a law journal typically involves editing and cite-checking rather than authorship. No authored publications, articles, or notes were found in any public database. [Not publicly verified — staff role vs. published author distinction should be clarified with client]

7. Awards, Recognitions, and Editorial Lists

Recognition	Source	Year(s)	Confidence
Nevada Business Magazine — tagged articles	nevadabusiness.com/tag/julie-speraw/	Unknown	Likely accurate (tag page exists; specific content not retrievable)
Legal Elite (Nevada Business Magazine)	nevadabusiness.com	Possibly 2020 or 2021	Not publicly verified (tag page suggests inclusion but full list not accessible)
Avvo Top Contributor	Martindale-Hubbell profile metadata	Unknown	Likely accurate (referenced in search metadata)
Super Lawyers / Rising Stars	superlawyers.com	N/A	Not found (no profile located)

Notes: The existence of a dedicated tag page on Nevada Business Magazine’s website (nevadabusiness.com/tag/julie-speraw/) strongly suggests she was included in at least one Legal Elite list, which recognizes the top 3% of Nevada attorneys as nominated by peers. However, the specific year(s) and category could not be confirmed without accessing the full article content. The firm should be asked to confirm specific year(s) of inclusion. [Needs client confirmation]

8. Directory and Rating Profiles

Platform	Profile Found	URL	Key Details
Martindale-Hubbell	Yes	martindale.com/attorney/julie-ann-speraw-300467632	Profile active; lists admission 2019; references Avvo Top Contributor
Avvo	Not directly found	N/A	No direct profile URL surfaced; Martindale references “Avvo Top Contributor” badge
Super Lawyers	Not found	N/A	No profile or selection found
FindLaw	Not found (individual)	N/A	Firm-level listing only at Pitaro & Fumo
Justia	Not found	N/A	No individual profile located
LawInfo	Firm listing	lawinfo.com	Firm-level listing; individual profile not confirmed
Lawyers.com	Firm listing	lawyers.com	Firm-level only
Yelp (Firm)	Firm listing	yelp.com	20 photos, 11 reviews (as of Feb 2026); individual attorney reviews not parsed

9. Court Filings and Case Appearances

Source	Result	Confidence
PACER (federal)	No filings found via web search	Not publicly verified (PACER requires authenticated access)
Nevada state courts	No individual case appearances surfaced	Not publicly verified (court records not searchable via web search)
Unicourt	No results found	Not found

Notes: The absence of publicly surfaced case filings is not unusual for a relatively junior associate (admitted 2019). Criminal defense case records are often sealed or not indexed by search engines. A direct PACER search and Nevada court records search would be required for comprehensive results. [Needs direct database search]

10. Media Coverage and News Mentions

Source	Detail	Confidence
Nevada Business Magazine	Tag page exists at nevadabusiness.com/tag/julie-speraw/	Verified (URL exists)
Local news (Las Vegas)	No news articles found	Not found
Legal industry press	No articles found	Not found
Social media / public commentary	No notable mentions found	Not found

Notes: The Nevada Business Magazine tag page is the only media trace found. No news coverage of specific cases, commentary, op-eds, or interviews was found in any search. This is consistent with a relatively early-career criminal defense attorney whose cases may involve sealed or confidential matters.

11. Community Involvement and Pro Bono Work

Activity	Detail	Confidence
Free criminal record sealing classes	Taught free, weekly classes to the Las Vegas community on the process for criminal record sealing in Nevada	Likely accurate (firm bio only; not independently verified through event listings or news)

Notes: This is a notable community service activity that demonstrates public interest commitment. No independent verification (e.g., event listings, news coverage, or organizational mentions) was found. The Legal Aid Center of Southern Nevada and Nevada Legal Services both run record sealing programs — it is possible she partnered with one of these organizations, but no connection is confirmed. [Needs client confirmation on organization affiliation and timeframe]

12. Personal Background

Detail	Source	Confidence
Born and raised in Las Vegas, NV	Firm website	Likely accurate (not independently verified)
Pre-law career possibly included SkyWest Airlines	LinkedIn search result (linkedin.com/in/julie-speraw-95491553/)	Not publicly verified (may be a different Julie Speraw or prior career)

Notes: The LinkedIn profile surfaced in search results appears to associate “Julie Speraw” with SkyWest Airlines, which could indicate a pre-law career in the airline industry. This has not been confirmed and may be a different individual. [Needs client confirmation]
