Las Vegas Attorney Thomas Boley Publishes Free Plain-English Guide to 100 Nevada Criminal Laws, in English and Spanish
Sep 21, 2026
LAS VEGAS - Sept. 21, 2026 - PRLog -- Nevada's criminal statutes are public. Understanding them is another matter. Las Vegas attorney Thomas Boley has published the Nevada Criminal Law Glossary, a free online resource that explains 100 Nevada criminal laws in plain English, with a full Spanish version available through a single toggle. The guide is live now at https://www.thomasboley.com/nv-criminal-laws.
Each entry lists the Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) citation, the name of the offense, a short plain-language explanation, and how the offense is classified, from misdemeanor and gross misdemeanor through Category E to Category A felony. Readers can search by NRS number, browse alphabetically, or filter by severity.
The glossary covers charges Nevadans are most likely to encounter or read about, including:
- Driving under the influence (NRS 484C.110)
- Battery (NRS 200.481) and battery constituting domestic violence (NRS 200.485)
- Assault (NRS 200.471)
- Possession of a controlled substance (NRS 453.336)
- Grand larceny (NRS 205.220)
- Unpaid casino markers, which Nevada prosecutes under its bad-check statute (NRS 205.130)
Offering the full guide in Spanish is central to the project. Spanish is widely spoken in Las Vegas homes, and legal terminology is difficult enough in a first language. Offering the guide in both languages lets family members read the same information together.
The glossary is free and available online at any hour. It is intended as a starting point. It does not replace advice from an attorney who knows the facts of a specific case.
To use the guide: Visit https://www.thomasboley.com/nv-criminal-laws and select EN or ES. To request a free consultation, call (702) 435-3333.
