Nicole is a coffee-fueled, garden-loving attorney originally from Argentina. As a proud queer woman, she brings authenticity and heart to her work, helping entrepreneurs turn their dreams into thriving brick-and-mortar businesses. With a passion for contracts, trademarks, and all things legal, Nicole is the go-to guide for navigating the complexities of starting and protecting a business. When she’s not drafting airtight agreements or securing brands, you’ll find her tending to her plants or sipping a perfectly brewed espresso. 

Calling Portland, a small city bursting with creativity, her home, Nicole is passionate about helping local businesses flourish. She believes that every thriving venture makes our community stronger and brighter (and why not, magical!). 

Polished at Harvard’s Program on Negotiation, she’s the lawyer who turns legal battles into smooth victories, all before her coffee cools. From contracts to trademarks, she’s got the brains, the charm, and the strategy to keep you ahead. Your legal ninja is here. She's sharp, swift, and unstoppable.

While she spends most of her time guiding locals through their business ventures, she takes special pride in supporting Spanish-speaking entrepreneurs as they build and grow their dreams. Licensed in both Argentina and Oregon, Nicole is dedicated to helping the Latino/a community thrive with the legal support they need to succeed. 

Nicole’s favorite clients? The ones who bring flavor, creativity, and grit to the table. From food carts and coffee shops to Latina-owned construction companies and innovative designers, she’s all about helping entrepreneurs build their dreams, whether it’s with a hammer, a spatula, or a sketchpad.
