About Mr Artemus W Ham
Mr Artemus W Ham IV studied political science and communications at Santa Clara University before heading to Creighton University School of Law, where he earned his J.D. in 1999. His academic background combined a grounding in public affairs with legal training, a mix that shaped the early years of his career.
He is admitted to practice in Nevada and is also admitted to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Those admissions allow him to represent clients in state trial courts, federal courts and on appeal within the Ninth Circuit’s jurisdiction.
After law school, Ham built a practice that has concentrated on litigation. He has spent decades in the courtroom and on appellate briefs. His work includes trial preparation, motion practice and handling appeals. Colleagues describe him as methodical in the courtroom and exacting on the written record.
Ham’s legal approach tends to emphasize preparation and clarity. He structures cases to make the key facts and legal points accessible to judges and juries. He often handles complex procedural issues, drafting appellate arguments and responding to opposing counsel’s motions. His communication skills, informed by his undergraduate studies, are apparent in both oral advocacy and written filings.
Throughout his career he has worked on matters that required coordination across trial and appellate stages. That experience has given him familiarity with the practical demands of litigation, from discovery timelines to evidentiary strategy. He has argued before judges in Nevada and prepared records for review in the Ninth Circuit, navigating the different rules and expectations of those forums.
He is a member of Eglet Law Group, where he continues to practice. At the firm he represents clients in matters brought in Nevada state courts and in federal proceedings subject to Ninth Circuit review, focusing on litigation and appellate advocacy in those jurisdictions.
