Nicole is a litigation paralegal at Scale LLP, whose main responsibilities include case management, legal research, trial preparation, and client support. Nicole believes that being deadline-oriented, kind, empathetic, and organized are what it takes to be a successful paralegal these days.
Coming from a wide background of varied legal experience in both the civil and criminal legal worlds, Nicole has learned great ways to adapt her skills to a variety of cases and people. She provides clients with a calm and supportive voice through the entire legal process while assisting with their cases. Nicole is also a notary public and can provide assistance in notarizing documents for clients. In a previous life, Nicole was a newspaper reporter and still enjoys writing and research.
Outside of the legal world, Nicole enjoys spending time with her family the most, cooking, and also volunteering with CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates for foster youth) and tutoring special needs children, helping mediate with community members within the Community Resolution Center, going to the beach, and horseback riding.

Scale Your Boutique Practice
I knew we could "do well while doing good" by providing quality counsel and balancing it with our service efforts, but I reached a point where I couldn't grow the firm any further on my own. My dream clients were out of reach with a team of our size, and I didn't know if my family could handle the additional years of effort it would take to grow organically.
