Nevada Secretary of State business filings

NVSOS records for 13 of this lobbyist's clients

Per-client business-entity records sourced from the Nevada Secretary of State's nvsos_corporations registry, joined to this lobbyist's client roster by tokenwise-normalised name match. Includes corporation status, registered agent, formation date, and the current officer/director list as filed with the state.

Match is name-based — a client may correspond to multiple business filings (parent + subsidiary, foreign + domestic) or none at all if it is a federal entity, a political committee filed elsewhere, or a non-NV organisation. Entries with status Active are currently in good standing; Permanently Revoked, Dissolved, or Merged indicates the entity is no longer operational under that NV ID. Officer rosters are public records as of the most recent filing.

Auditor research leads

2 detector flag(s) on file for this lobbyist

The Nevada Political Establishment auditor cross-references this lobbyist against every Tier A/B/C/D/E1 detector. Each flag below is a research lead, not a published claim — verify against authoritative records before treating as evidence of wrongdoing. Most flags reflect structural patterns the public has a right to see, not necessarily violations.

Methodology · All auditor findings

Tier D Adverse-interest — represents both regulator and regulated industry Direct submit correction

1 regulator-side client(s): Nevada State Board of Architecture, Interior Design, and Residential Design. 6 industry-side client(s): Asurion Insurance Services, Nevada Association of Insurance & Financial Advisors, Nevada Hospital Association, Nevada Independent Insurance Agents, Nevada Insurance Council. Same lobbyist arguing on both sides of a regulatory question is the structural conflict signal. Citation: Stigler 1971, Olson 1965, Tullock 1967.

Tier D Donor-as-state-contractor — clients are state vendors who contribute politically Direct submit correction

3 of this lobbyist's client(s) appear in Nevada state-vendor payment records (checkbook.nv.gov, FY 2019-2025) AND make political contributions. The pattern is the rent-seeking signal under Buchanan/Tullock 1962. Citation: NRS 333 / NRS 332 (state purchasing), NRS 294A.

Ambiguity flag: the Nevada SOS dataset contains more than one contributor with this first/last name. The numbers and recipient list above sum across all matching name records and may include contributions from another individual sharing the same name. Cities on file for this name: LAS VEGAS, NV, Las Vegas, NV, Las Vegas, nv. Treat as a research lead, not a definitive total.

This number reflects what the lobbyist has personally given to candidates, parties, and political committees in Nevada — not what their clients have given. The two channels frequently overlap: a paid advocate who also writes a personal check to the legislator they're lobbying is using both kinds of access at once.

Surname cluster

Other registered lobbyists with the surname "Wadhams"

Same-firm or same-employer surname match. A shared surname does not by itself imply a family relationship — common names will produce coincidental matches. We surface this as a research lead, not as a claim.
