Lisa A. Willardson

Lisa Ann Willardson was born on February 21, 1968, in Salina, Utah, and built her legal career in southern Nevada. She earned her undergraduate degree Summa Cum Laude from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas in 1999, and went on to graduate Cum Laude from UNLV's William S. Boyd School of Law in 2002. She was admitted to the State Bar of Nevada shortly thereafter and devoted the next decade to the practice of law.

Much of her career was spent in public service as an Assistant District Attorney in Clark County, Nevada, where she received the District Attorney Meritorious Award. Colleagues noted that in the ten years she practiced law, she never lost a case. She later founded and owned the Willardson Law Group, PLLC, and served as CEO and Editor of the Nevada Judicial Watch and the Nevada Judicial Guardian. At the time of her passing, she was a candidate for District Court Judge in the Family Division.

Throughout her professional life, Lisa dedicated herself to the health and welfare of children, both as an attorney and as a volunteer committed to protecting vulnerable young people. She passed away on December 26, 2013, in Henderson, Nevada.
