Your Instructors: April Cole and Nicole Nichols

April Cole is the Supervising Attorney over the Charlotte office and has been with us since 2018. She enjoys working with her L&B team, who have quickly become like a second family, and loves solving problems and working with clients to resolve their pending issues. She spends most days in the Mecklenburg County courthouse but also supports the team in surrounding counties. Before law school and joining the L&B team, April taught 5th grade in a Title I high-needs school, which was both a challenging and rewarding experience. A little-known fact about April? She is a kitchen gadget junkie – if it exists, she wants to own it…except InstaPots, which terrify her!

Nicole Nichols is a Senior Associate Attorney who joined our team in 2018. She thinks her coworkers are fabulous and appreciates how much our team cares about what we do and how we do it. When she’s not in the Mecklenburg or Gaston County Courthouses, she’s busy helping clients and reviewing cases for approval and filing. Before going to law school and joining the L&B Team, Nicole worked as a farmhand, taking care of the animals on their family farm. She previously owned a dance studio with 200+ students, and currently co-owns a scholarship pageant with her mom. She also loves to travel with her husband and children.
