The Office of Legal Affairs provides legal services to the Nevada System of Higher Education (NSHE), its Board of Regents, and institutions of the System. The office consists of the Chief General Counsel, a Deputy General Counsel, an Associate General Counsel, and two legal assistants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the System level legal office, each System institution has its own Office of General Counsel providing legal services to the institution. The institutional General Counsel reports to both the President and the Chief General Counsel. This structure allows for collaboration and consistency in the legal advice provided across all System institutions. Attorneys at the System office or the campuses do not advise or represent Board members, administrators, faculty, staff or students about personal legal matters. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n\n\n
