Longtime estate attorney Robert Graham admitted in District Court Thursday to stealing more than $16 million from clients, many of whom relied financially on trust funds he oversaw.
Graham, 52, who is in custody at the Clark County Detention Center on $5 million bail, pleaded guilty before District Judge Kerry Earley to two felony counts of theft and three counts of exploitation of an older/vulnerable person. He faces a prison term of 16 to 40 years at his Jan. 11 sentencing.
“He’s a despicable predatory thief, plain and simple,” District Attorney Steve Wolfson said after the hearing. “He’s going to serve more time in prison than some murderers. As much justice as we could deliver was delivered today.”
Graham wore black reading glasses as he stood before Earley in jail garb and chains to enter his plea.
“I’m guilty of these charges, your honor,” Graham told the judge.
His lawyer, Deputy Public Defender Bryan Cox, added afterward, “It’s been a very difficult case, especially for the victims and the victims’ families.”
In the courtroom, Chief Deputy District Attorney J. P. Raman, the lead prosecutor in the case, read aloud the names of more than 110 clients who deserve a share of the $16 million in restitution prosecutors will seek against Graham.
The money was stolen between 2011 and 2016, Raman said in court papers Thursday.
The thefts — which ranged from as little as $20 to more than $1 million — occurred in 64 estate cases, 21 trust funds, 10 guardianship cases, and four special needs trusts, the court papers show.
Graham’s guilty plea capped a 10-month legal saga that began when he abruptly shut down his Lawyers West office in Summerlin on Dec. 2 after years of looting client funds.
In interviews with the Las Vegas Review-Journal after his indictment
earlier this year, former clients described their frustration with
Graham as they fought, sometimes desperately, to get him to turn over
their funds in the years and final months before he closed his law
practice.
Clients lost everything
The victims who lost everything include a wheelchair-bound woman with cerebral palsy and three young children who survived a crash that killed their parents. Some of the victims are expected to testify at Graham’s sentencing.
Graham secretly funneled an average of $187,000 a month in client funds over the years to a special bank account to run his law practice and pay personal bills, grand jury transcripts show.
He used client funds to pay $244,000 in taxes and $700,000 a year in advertising. He also used the money to make thousands of dollars more in charitable donations to numerous organizations, including the Church of the Latter Day Saints and Boys Town of Nevada, the testimony shows.
Graham, once a regular fixture on local television promoting his law firm, described his practice as a 20-year business failure in a December interview with the Review-Journal.
“I was responsible for the litigation and felt I had no out,” Graham said. “So bit by bit, I moved the chairs on the deck. Each year, things got worse and worse, and I tried to bail myself out and just couldn’t.”
The State Bar of Nevada moved quickly to take control of Graham’s
cases after he abandoned his clients in December and obtained a court
order for his temporary suspension.
Assistant Bar Counsel Janeen Isaacson has since asked the Nevada Supreme Court to permanently disbar Graham.
“He stole millions of dollars to feed his ego and desires for wealth and power, and he used his law license to do it,” Isaacson said at a recent disciplinary hearing.
Several former clients filed an involuntary bankruptcy petition against Lawyers West in December seeking the firm’s remaining assets.
But lawyers for the clients have admitted there is slim chance of recovering the missing funds. In Bankruptcy Court papers, Lawyers West listed $8.7 million in liabilities and only $438,000 in assets, mostly in unpaid legal fees unlikely to be collected.
Wolfson said Thursday that obtaining restitution from Graham in the criminal case also will be difficult because of his lack of assets.
“The odds of recovering anything significant are probably not very likely,” he said.

I read in link that stealing from trusts is even more egregious if victim in over 60.
I am 68 and Patricia Dillon L. IMO cooked the books to do similar as "Longtime estate attorney Robert Graham admitted in District Court Thursday to stealing more than $16 million from clients,"
The signed and witnessed paper that Patricia Dillon L. Esq said was not existing for YEARS....only turnede up, sans witness signature at the very last second, after I posted about it in early February 2018....so we have that NOW, sans signature of witness...if this is not COOKING THE BOOKS I don't know what is.
Undue influence on my mother and me towards signing ANYTHING Patricia Dillon L. Esq put in front of us.
P Dillon L. Esq LIED to the magistrate about that paper, and about how 70 years later survivors cannot possibly remain affected. We have the paper ... now....finally.
Dr Einat Libel-Haas of Israel is researching at HUC and tells me that in Israel they are now studying the fourth generation survivors. My mother is first generation and my son is third generation and what Patricia Dillon L. Esq is doing to us is IMO CRIMINAL. And that is possible with the complicity of The Greater Cincinnati Foundation IMO,
I published this http://ourcriminaljusticesystem.blogspot.com/2018/02/the-greater-cincinnati-foundation-is.html
And emailed what is happening to the Greater Cincinnati Foundation, which apparently cares not.

Self-Dealing....Have I gone over this one before? If so it is worth attaching IMO to Patricia Dillon L. Esq.
Self-Dealing....Have I gone over this one before? If so it is worth attaching IMO to Patricia Dillon L. Esq.
Self-dealing is wrongful conduct by a fiduciary. A fiduciary is a person who has duties of Good Faith, trust, special confidence, and candor toward another person. Examples of fiduciary relationships include attorneys and their clients, doctors and their patients, investment bankers and their clients, trustees and trust beneficiaries, and corporate directors and stockholders. Fiduciaries have expert knowledge and skill, and they are paid to apply that knowledge and skill for the benefit of another party. Under the law, a fiduciary relationship imposes certain duties on fiduciaries because a fiduciary is in a special position of control over an important aspect of another person's life.
One important duty of a fiduciary is to act in the best interests of the benefited party. When a fiduciary engages in self-dealing, she breaches this duty by acting in her own interests instead of the interests of the represented party. For example, self-dealing occurs when a trustee uses money from the trust account to make a loan to a business in which he has a substantial personal interest. A fiduciary may make such a transaction with the prior permission of the trust beneficiary, but if the trustee does not obtain permission, the beneficiary can void the transaction and sue the fiduciary for any monetary losses that result.
The laws pertaining to self-dealing are found mainly in case law, judicial opinions, and some statutes. Case law authorizes the recovery of monetary damages from the self-dealing fiduciary.
One of the most notable statutes relating to self-dealing is 26 U.S.C.A. § 4941 (1969), which allows the Internal Revenue Service to impose a five percent excise tax on each act of self-dealing by a disqualified person with a private, nonprofit foundation. Disqualified persons include substantial contributors to the foundation, foundation managers, owners of more than 20 percent of the foundation's interest, and members of the family of disqualified persons. If the self-dealing act is not timely corrected, the IRS may impose on the self-dealer an additional 200 percent excise tax on the amount of the transaction.
