Daniel J. McAdorey

Daniel J. McAdorey moved to Las Vegas as a child and has considered Southern Nevada home ever since. He attended Shadow Ridge High School before earning his bachelor’s degree in Business Law at Arizona State. He later attended Chapman University School of Law.

Mr. McAdorey became licensed to practice law in Nevada in 2020 and was admitted to practice in federal court in 2022. He began his legal career at a plaintiff-side personal injury firm, where he spent approximately two years representing injured individuals. He then gained valuable defense-side experience working for a major insurance company, where he learned how insurance carriers evaluate, defend, and litigate injury claims.

In 2022, Mr. McAdorey joined Gillock & Coggeshall permanently. He now represents plaintiffs exclusively and handles a wide variety of personal injury matters, including medical malpractice, motor vehicle collision claims, insurance bad faith matters, premises liability cases. Mr. McAdorey feels especially passionate about cases where he has the privilege of helping clients with special needs or cognitive disabilities.

Mr. McAdorey has worked on hundreds of personal injury cases and has experience with depositions, arbitrations, mediations, motion practice, expert discovery, and trial. He has also been involved in cases resulting in seven-figure verdicts and eight-figure settlements. His prior defense experience gives him a practical understanding of how defendants and insurers approach litigation, which he now uses to advocate for injured plaintiffs.

Outside of work, Mr. McAdorey enjoys spending time with his wonderful wife and watching baseball.
