For Kade Miller, a career in law was never in his plans. “My family has been in the construction industry for several generations, so I had no exposure to the legal profession or plans to attend law school,” Miller said. “That all changed during the first year of my masters of accountancy program, when I stumbled across the university’s joint accounting and law program.” With the promise of a dual degree and increased professional marketability, he took the bait.
Miller is now a corporate and securities attorney and a partner at Snell & Wilmer at just 33 years old. He’s a frequent speaker and writer on the Federal Opportunity Zone tax incentive, and his efforts to educate business owners and real estate investors on the tax incentive have led to increased economic activity and job creation here in Southern Nevada.
It might not have been his initial goal, but it has led to immense career success and satisfaction for Miller. “Every day brings new challenges, which is what makes the job enjoyable and rewarding.”
Miller is also a founding member of the Southern Nevada Chapter of the Alliance of Merger & Acquisition Advisors, a 2018 graduate of the Leadership Henderson program and a mentor to young attorneys in the community. He has been recognized as a Rising Star by Mountain States Super Lawyers, a Legal Elite Top Southern Nevada Attorney and one of the Best Up and Coming Attorneys by Nevada Business Magazine.
Outside the office, Miller loves a good adventure with his wife and four children, working on his motorcycle, collecting tattoos and participating on a competition barbecue team, Glazed and Infused.
