Dickinson Wright PLLC is pleased to announce that Attorney John R. Nelson has joined the firm’s Austin office as a Member.
For over twenty years Mr. Nelson has represented businesses and individuals in courts across Texas. Over that period of time, his practice has grown to include not only business litigation but also intellectual property cases that protect trade secrets, trademarks, and copyrights.
Mr. Nelson’s experience includes traditional disputes such as construction, personal injury, and product liability, but he also has resolved complex securities cases and those involving breaches of fiduciary duty.
Although he prides himself on helping clients negotiate smart business resolutions, Mr. Nelson is a first-chair trial lawyer who is experienced in the courtroom when an out-of-court settlement is not practical.
A Member of the State Bar of Texas and a Fellow of the Texas Bar Foundation, Mr. Nelson has been recognized as a leader in his field by Texas Monthly’s Super Lawyers publication. He earned his B.A. from Louisiana Tech University and his J.D. from Baylor University School of Law.
