The nation’s leading organizations turn to Nigel to handle their most sensitive and challenging matters which, due to his involvement, often successfully result in non-public and confidential resolutions.

"I make it my business to develop a clear understanding of my clients’ culture and business, and then I leverage my personal and professional experiences so that I can be a real thought partner in developing solutions unique to their goals and long term business objectives. I understand the significant pressures placed on in-house counsel so I try to anticipate their needs and provide answers proactively to help them see around corners. My goal is to make every interaction value add, seamless and enjoyable."
