Poyner Spruill Welcomes Education Law Practice Group

Poyner Spruill LLP is pleased to announce partner Nick Ellis has been named a Litigation Trailblazer by The National Law Journal. The Litigation Trailblazer awards honor attorneys that are “true agents of change.”

In his profile in the National Law Journal special publication, Ellis stated, “Having courts adjudicate the scope of those rights and obligations in an impartial setting where all points of view are presented and then subjected to the applicable law has been a tremendous foundation for our country. While the executive and legislative branches are partisan, the judicial branch is not and must remain that way so the public accepts its rulings, which are then woven into the fabric of our lives.”

Ellis represents businesses, governmental agencies, and individuals needing someone to represent them in litigation. Clients count on his more than 33 years of experience to present their cases to judges and juries in North Carolina’s federal and state courts.
