Nicole Skolout’s successful client representation spans courts across the country and a breadth of civil litigation matters. Her success results from her ability to quickly grasp the issues at hand and fashion a strategy uniquely tailored to her clients’ needs. She has litigated contract disputes, securities cases, class actions, false advertising claims, and antitrust and competition matters extensively. Nicole has also handled a myriad of other civil litigation matters, including copyright infringement, data breach cases, and land development disputes.
On the defense-side, Nicole has obtained dismissal of many matters at the pleading stage, or narrowed the scope significantly early in the litigation through targeted motion practice. On the plaintiff-side, Nicole’s significant cases have resulted in multimillion dollar jury verdicts and settlements on behalf of clients. By representing both plaintiffs and defendants in a variety of legal matters, Nicole knows how to skillfully develop a strategy to help her clients achieve their goals.
In addition to representing clients in court, Nicole also represents clients in investigations by regulatory bodies, including the Securities & Exchange Commission, Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Obtaining the assistance of an attorney like Nicole at this early stage can often help clients avoid litigation all together and head off future legal problems.
Having also served as a career law clerk for several magistrate judges in the District of Utah, Nicole has in-depth knowledge concerning the intricacies and practices of federal courts, and is well-versed in federal civil procedure, discovery disputes, and a variety of other areas of civil litigation, including employment law and civil rights litigation. This knowledge and experience enable her to navigate the federal court system efficiently, saving her clients time and money.
Nicole’s career began at a boutique litigation firm in Salt Lake City. Her common-sense approach to litigation and skillful application of the law to the facts of the case in front of her led her to large national and international firms in Los Angeles and Salt Lake City, including Baker & Hostetler LLP and Howrey LLP. Now she brings that level of practice to her clients in a small firm setting. Nicole puts her clients at ease and helps them navigate challenging legal disputes.
