Nathan Pittman

Nathan Pittman is an attorney with Nevin, Benjamin & McKay LLP in Boise who practices in criminal defense, appeals, federal and state investigations, and significant civil litigation. Before returning to Boise, he spent six years in Washington, D.C. with McGuireWoods LLP in its White Collar Defense and Government Investigations group. His practice combines criminal defense experience with knowledge of complex investigations, appellate procedure, and high-stakes civil claims.

Nate graduated summa cum laude from the University of Idaho and later graduated summa cum laude and first in his class from William & Mary Law School. During law school, he interned for the Honorable Edward J. Lodge and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. His academic record and federal internships provided early exposure to courts, government enforcement, legal research, and the analytical work required in complex criminal and regulatory matters.

Pittman spent three years in the federal appellate courts after law school. He first served as a Staff Attorney in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, where he primarily handled criminal appeals. He then clerked for the Honorable N. Randy Smith of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. That appellate background now informs his work on criminal cases, appeals, investigations, and significant civil disputes.

Nathan Pittman brings experience from private white-collar practice, federal appellate courts, the SEC, and Idaho criminal defense work. His background allows him to evaluate matters from investigative, trial, and appellate perspectives. He helps clients facing federal or state allegations understand the legal process, assess evidentiary and procedural issues, and respond to matters that may involve government investigations, criminal charges, appeals, or related civil claims.
