Biography

Dean Nichols is the kind of lawyer you want in your corner when the stakes are at their highest. For the past 25 years, he has been in the trenches trying complex cases involving everything from trucking accidents and nursing home abuse to high-value personal injury matters. Before joining our team, he was a partner at a prestigious civil litigation firm, where he mastered the art of the trial. Dean has successfully led multimillion-dollar jury trials to verdict in both Missouri and Illinois, using an aggressive courtroom approach that consistently delivers for his clients. His professional reputation is truly top-tier, he holds an AV rating from Martindale-Hubbell and was invited into America’s Top 100 Personal Injury Attorneys. To put that in perspective, that’s a distinction held by less than half a percent of lawyers in the country. A 1999 graduate of the University of Missouri–Columbia School of Law, Dean combines a sharp legal mind with decades of practical experience. If you are facing a catastrophic injury or a complex legal battle, Dean’s elite level of advocacy is exactly what you need to secure a successful outcome.
