atthew Q. Callister, a Las Vegas native, defies the classical stereotype of a buttoned-down attorney. From hair style and choice of clothing to legal maneuvers, he defies convention. This professional, passionate advocate for those requiring legal representation could be mistaken for a contemporary community activist, rather than a seasoned courtroom lawyer. For 30 years, first-time visitors to the offices of Callister & Associates have encountered a client-friendly environment staffed by unpretentious “real people.” Clients are ushered into a comfortable conference room, where Matthew maps the details of an entire case on a white board, exhibiting a laser-like focus that quickly identifies the key elements of an issue. He then outlines clear go-forward strategies and tactics consistent with just, strong representation. These and a reputation for winning cases are the discriminators that spawned Callister & Associates’ “Fight Back” brand of legal representation. A fifth-generation lawyer, Matthew comes from a family of top trial litigators. The Callister name has been synonymous with dedicated legal service, tenacity and compassion in Las Vegas, since 1947. The firm is involved in complex trial litigation. Callister & Associates is staffed by five skilled attorneys and ten expert paralegals, who routinely handle cases such as personal injury, wrongful death, trust and estate, bankruptcy, business litigation, loan modifications, social-security benefits and class-action suits brought by homeowners, A8 AT T O R N E Y P R O F I L E s
