Luke Nichols

Firm: Nichols Law Firm
850 Park Street , Beaumont , Texas 77701
Practice Areas: Criminal Defense
I firmly believe that the best lawyers are those that maintain open lines of communicaiton with their clients.  Whether it is a criminal case or personal injury lawsuit, most clients have little experience in the court system.  An attorney who takes the time to explain what is happening, both good and bad, is a must.  I make myself available by phone, email, or in person.

I attended law school in Houston at South Texas College of Law and graduated Cum Laude in December, 2010. No matter what your legal issue, I can give you my full assurance that I will fight for your rights and interests and will always be open and honest in evaluating your case.
