Las Vegas, NV – On February 21, 2025, Governor Joe Lombardo appointed Adriana Rincon White to the Eighth Judicial District Court, Department Y. White currently serves as the Domestic Violence Protection Order Hearing Master in the Eighth Judicial District Court in Clark County, where she presides over applications for protection orders, conducts initial hearings, and determines whether to issue protective orders.

“I’m pleased to announce my appointment of Adriana Rincon White to the Eighth Judicial District Court, Department Y,” said Governor Joe Lombardo. “Adriana has an extensive career in law, including ten years of experience on the bench. Her credentials in family law and her work ethic are exceptional, and she has established a reputation as one of Nevada’s strongest advocates for children and families.”

“I am truly honored to be selected by Governor Lombardo to serve in Department Y of District Court, Family Division,” said Judge Adriana Rincon White. “I look forward to working hard and serving our community with a fair and balanced approach.”

After five years in real estate and passing the bar exam, White opened an independent firm, where she focused on family law and personal injury cases. After joining a firm, she exclusively represented family law matters before taking on her current role as Hearing Master in Clark County.

A California native, White has lived in Nevada for 21 years. She is a first-generation high school graduate and was an active leader in the Future Farmers of America (FFA). While attending law school, she served as president of the Pre-Law Society, worked for a state attorney general, and helped launch a mentorship program.
