Commissioner April Becker was born and raised in rural Texas but has called Las Vegas home for the past thirty years. As a working mother with young children, she put herself through college and law school at UNLV, eventually becoming a top-rated litigator in Las Vegas.
April has always been passionate about advocating for the marginalized and tackling complex cases. She was recognized as a Super Lawyer Rising Star and inducted into the “100 Hours Club” by the Legal Aid Center of Southern Nevada for her pro bono legal aid to those in need. She also proudly served on the UNLV Libraries Advisory Board, understanding the power of education to level the playing field and lift people out of poverty.
As a top-rated business litigator, April dedicated herself to helping underdogs, providing hundreds of hours of pro bono legal aid to individuals who could not afford counsel. Her work and dedication earned her recognition from her peers, but for April, the most meaningful achievements were the results she secured for victims.
April's commitment to serving others led her to volunteer at The Meadows School in various capacities, and in 2014, she was elected to the Board of Trustees.
She and her husband, Matt, have three children and are now proud grandparents. In her spare time, she enjoys fishing, hiking Red Rock and Mt. Charleston, engaging with the community, and spending time with her family.
In 2024, April was elected to represent the Clark County Commission, District C. District C encompasses North Summerlin, Northwest Las Vegas, Mt. Charleston, Kyle Canyon, and Indian Springs.
As Commissioner, April prioritizes an open-door policy for her constituents and is committed to advocating for a more transparent and accountable government.
