With an eye for recovering or minimizing financial losses, Max represents his clients in state and federal court in complex commercial litigation disputes, with a focus on securities and M&A litigation.

Maxs recent successes include dismissal at the pleading stage of a shareholder class action and enforcing rights under Nevadas recreational marijuana establishment laws. Whether obtaining an injunction to stop an action detrimental to his clients interest or achieving his clients desired outcome with summary judgment, Maxs balanced approach allows his clients to be successful in the courtroom no matter the dispute. Prior to Brownstein, Max served as a law clerk to the Honorable Elizabeth G. Gonzalez (Ret.), of the Business Court for the Eighth Judicial District Court.
