Experience
Nick is a litigation associate representing clients in business and corporate litigation matters as well as matters in the areas of personal injury, medical malpractice, healthcare, and insurance defense. He served as second chair in a three-week medical malpractice trial in Chicago and secured a full defense verdict on behalf of four physicians and their emergency medicine group. At trial, plaintiff counsel asked the jury for $11 million.
In addition, he also successfully represented his client in a Title VII sex-discrimination action against the U.S. Navy in the Ninth Circuit while still in law school. Oral arguments were heard in Pasadena, California and the case was successfully reversed and remanded back to the U.S. District Court for Southern California.
