About Amber R
Amber R Fuhriman took a direct path into law. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Political Science from Idaho State University in 2009 and completed her J.D. at Western Michigan University Cooley Law School in 2013. While in law school she spent time in public defender offices, including an internship at the Washtenaw County Public Defender’s Office in 2011 and a law clerk position at the Clark County Public Defender’s Office in 2012. Those early placements gave her regular courtroom exposure and a practical sense of trial work.
After law school she joined the Law Office of Xavier Gonzalez in 2013. That first role moved her from academic training to client representation. She handled matters that landed in and out of court and learned the rhythms of case preparation. In 2015 she shifted to Las Vegas Defense Group, LLC, where she continued to handle criminal defense work and sharpened courtroom skills. In 2017 she opened her own firm, Law Office of Amber R. Fuhriman LLC, taking on the administrative responsibilities of running a practice alongside client work.
Her background includes public defender experience and private defense practice. She has prepared cases for trial, conducted plea negotiations, and filed motions on behalf of clients. She often manages investigations, evidence review, witness preparation and sentencing advocacy. In court she has addressed judges and juries on routine hearings and more contested matters. That mixture of roles has shaped how she approaches case strategy and client communication.
Those who have worked with her note an emphasis on practical case management. She tends to prioritize clear explanations for clients about options and likely outcomes. She also treats deadlines and procedural requirements as important parts of a defense. Her experience spans both hands-on trial preparation and the administrative tasks necessary to maintain a functioning small firm.
Licensed to practice in Nevada, she runs her practice from Las Vegas. Her office profile reflects work rooted in criminal defense, supported by years of courtroom and public defender experience. Currently she operates the Law Office of Amber R. Fuhriman LLC and handles criminal defense matters in Nevada courts.
