Nick began at Columbia Legal Services as an Equal Justice Works fellow; his two-year project focused on the barriers to reentry created by legal financial obligations (LFOs)—the fees, fines, and restitution imposed by a court as part of a criminal judgment and sentence. As a staff attorney, he continues to work on LFOs as well as other issues, including juvenile life without parole in Washington State. Additionally, as a Youth Justice Leadership Institute fellow, he advocates for policies that change the way youth are transferred to and sentenced in the adult criminal justice system.
