Nikaa's practice is devoted to brief-writing at all phases of litigation. The focus of her trial-level work is the exclusion of expert testimony and complex dispositive motions. Nikaa has written briefs in support of excluding a host of expert witnesses, including physicians, toxicologists, economists, and alternative design theorists. Her case-dispositive practice raises a host of issues under state and federal law for a broad spectrum of clients. Her work in this regard has ranged from cases alleging simple claims of fraud to class actions based on antitrust law.

Nikaa's post-trial and appellate work has likewise touched upon a range of issues--including bad-faith, ERISA, toxic torts, and products liability. She also has significant experience in procedural motion practice before federal appellate courts. Nikaa is a member of several appellate organizations and recently served as the Secretary of the Appellate Section of the Alabama State Bar.

Nikaa received her law degree magna cum laude from the University of Alabama School of Law in 2000, where she was a Hugo Black Scholar, a member of Order of the Coif, a recipient of the Dean's Award for Service, and a member of the managing board of the Alabama Law Review.  She received her undergraduate degree summa cum laude in 1996 from Auburn University where she was elected to Phi Kappa Phi.
