Mead Law Group LLP has added another milestone to its long-standing presence in Nevada’s construction sector, earning a prestigious 2026 “Best Law Firm” Tier 1 ranking in both Construction Law and Litigation – Construction for the Metro Las Vegas region. The recognition was awarded jointly by Best Lawyers® and U.S. News & World Report, two of the most respected evaluators of legal performance in the country.
“This is such an honor,” said Leon F. Mead II, Esq., founder and Managing Partner. “As we move beyond three decades of serving Nevada’s construction community, being acknowledged for our achievements in construction law and litigation reflects our ongoing commitment to excellence, diligence, and client-focused representation.”

The recognition comes as Mead Law Group surpasses 30 years of dedicated service to the construction industry, a period during which the firm has built a reputation for technical legal competence and practical business-oriented solutions. For many construction companies and industry stakeholders in Nevada, the firm has become a go-to resource for navigating complex contract issues, disputes, and regulatory challenges.
Being ranked Tier 1 signals not only professional excellence but also sustained trust and positive peer evaluation. Recognition by Best Lawyers® is considered one of the legal profession’s most reliable and unbiased indicators of quality. For more than four decades, Best Lawyers® has developed its rankings based on extensive peer review, with tens of thousands of attorneys confidentially evaluating colleagues within their practice areas.
The system is intentionally insulated from influence—Best Lawyers® does not accept fees for inclusion, helping ensure that only consistently high-performing firms make the list.
In 2026, founder Leon F. Mead II marks his 36th year practicing construction law. Over the decades, he has represented a diverse range of clients, including:
His work spans contract strategy, LEED and Green Building consulting, mechanics lien remedies, construction defect defense, claims management, mediation, and arbitration. Mead’s deep understanding of both construction law and real-world project dynamics has helped shape the firm’s client-first, solution-driven culture.
