Nicholas Brady
Staff Attorney
Nicholas "Nick" Brady is a staff attorney with the NLS Lawyer of the Day program, providing legal counsel to people who face eviction and other landlord-tenant issues. He started with NLS as a certified legal intern in the consumer/bankruptcy division from 2019 to 2020 and enjoyed helping vulnerable communities so much that he decided to stay.
Prior to joining NLS, Nick clerked with the ACBA's Lawyer Referral Services from 2018 to 2019, earned his J.D. from Duquesne University Kline School of Law in 2020 and was admitted to the Pennsylvania Bar in 2021. He graduated from the University of Pittsburgh in 2014 with a BA in political science and government.
Since there's no "right to counsel" in civil law, vulnerable communities often pay too high a price for the inability to afford legal representation. That's why NLS created Lawyer of the Day: to ensure people can access attorneys like Nick Brady as advocates in court. Housing issues usually indicate other challenges in a person's life, and losing a roof over one's head creates a devastating snowball effect. We thank the judges, funders and supporters for making Lawyer for the Day possible.
