Leveraging advanced technologies and analytics, she manages complex and high-profile eDiscovery projects and routinely navigates data and privacy protection laws across many jurisdictions, both domestic and foreign.

She also advises on collection methodology, search and retrieval methodology, FRE 502(d) orders, and production specifications and develops internal and external discovery guidelines addressing each phase of the Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM). Additionally, Nicole is involved in discovery-related motion practice, including the drafting of affidavits in support of cost-shifting. She also implements quality control procedures to mitigate risk and counsels both clients and colleagues on issues related to eDiscovery, information governance, and data management.
Nicole has written the ABA’s book on eDiscovery – Best Practices for E-Discovery: A Practical Handbook – which has been features in eDiscovery Today. She is also a regular columnist for Thomson Reuters, where she addresses and navigates novel eDiscovery issues. She is a member of the Sedona Conference and is currently part of the WG6 Drafting Committee focused on exploring data privacy issues related to the exportation of data from the People’s Republic of China. The leading think tank on eDiscovery law and practice, the Sedona Conference’s commentaries are regularly cited by judges and significantly influence the development of rules of evidence and civil procedure for federal and state courts. Nicole has written articles appearing in The Legal Intelligencer, Bloomberg Law, The Journal of the American Osteopathic Association, The Pennsylvania Bar Association Quarterly, and the World Association for Medical Law’s Medicine and Law Journal. She has spoken on numerous eDiscovery-related panels at the country’s most reputable conferences, including Georgetown Law’s Advanced eDiscovery Institute, the International Legal Technology Association’s EVOLVE conference, the Construction Super Conference, the Sedona Conference, the Master’s Conference, the Association of Corporate Counsel’s Annual Conference, and Law.com’s Women, Influence & Power in Law Conference. Nicole is also a member of the Philadelphia Chapter of Women in eDiscovery, serves as Co-Chair of the Philadelphia Bar Association’s Wellness and Quality of Life committee, and is on the firm’s Women’s Initiative Executive Committee.
