Nick Roumel & Associates

Nick Roumel

Nick Roumel is a trial lawyer with 25 years experience in state and federal courts. He began his career at the Free Legal Aid Clinic in Detroit, helping victims of domestic violence. From there he served the legal needs of Detroit's indigent population at Wayne County Neighborhood Legal Services, until 1989 when he moved to University of Michigan Student Legal Services for 14 years. Since then he has been exclusively in private practice.

Unlike most other employment law attorneys, Mr. Roumel only represents employees and labor unions. He is well suited for this specialty, with over 20 years experience in civil rights cases, as well as having been on both sides of the bargaining table. He is also uniquely suited to represent students in education disputes, drawing on his experience with Student Legal Services as well as his service on the Ann Arbor School Board from 1994-2000.

Mr. Roumel has represented numerous high profile athletes and artists in various types of litigation; represented victims of domestic and sexual violence in obtaining financial compensation; and has been appointed for various matters by the Washtenaw County Courts, to act as a receiver for a corporation, and to mediate other parties' court cases.

Mr. Roumel has successfully represented criminal defendants for over 20 years, with an excellent record of obtaining favorable verdicts and dismissals.
