The former chief of staff for Nevada Gov. Jim Gibbons has opened a Reno office for a national law firm.
Josh Hicks will work for Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck. The firm's work includes lobbying federal, state and local governments. It is expanding its government relations group.
Hicks left his post as Gibbons' chief of staff this summer. He had also served earlier as the governor's legal counsel.
Hicks will focus on public policy, administrative law, Nevada tax law and election law.
The firm made the announcement on Monday.
