Nick’s litigation experience includes the successful resolution of various Jones Act, general maritime, and product liability cases on behalf of many different individuals against various companies, including some of the largest maritime corporations in the United States. He has appeared for plaintiffs in state and federal courts throughout Washington, California, Oregon, and Alaska, and has established a reputation as a dedicated advocate for injured individuals and their families.

His tenacity and in-depth understanding of maritime law have contributed to numerous successful resolutions, both in litigation and in settlement negotiations.
His skill and dedication have not gone unnoticed.

Outside of maritime law, Nick’s pro bono practice focuses on Skagit County Teen Court, a diversion program with the goal of offering youth an alternative to juvenile detention, by aiding the representation of teenagers and mentoring high school students involved in the program.
