About Nicholas A.
Nicholas A. Taylor built his path to the law through a mix of liberal arts and formal legal training. He earned a B.A. from St. Bonaventure University in 2011, then continued his studies at The Pennsylvania State University School of Law, receiving his J.D. in 2018. Those years shaped his approach to legal problems and prepared him for practice in New York.
He joined HoganWillig, PLLC as an attorney in 2019. Since then, he has worked out of several of the firm’s regional offices. His employment record lists the Buffalo, Lancaster, Ellicottville and Lockport offices, and he has handled client matters across that western New York footprint. The move from law school to a regional firm gave him exposure to a steady caseload and the day-to-day demands of courtroom preparation, client counseling and file management.
Taylor is admitted to practice in New York. He maintains membership in the State Bar of New York and has been a member of the Erie County Bar Association since 2019. Those affiliations are part of his professional routine. They provide access to continuing legal education, local court updates and the professional networks that support litigation calendars and transactional work in the region.
Colleagues describe him as practical and attentive in client meetings, and he has served clients through the firm’s multiple offices rather than concentrating at a single location. That pattern has required adaptability; he moves between courthouses, client sites and the firm’s offices depending on the needs of a matter. The varied settings have given him repeated experience in judicial procedures common to New York practice and in coordinating filings and appearances across different jurisdictions within the state.
Outside formal memberships, Taylor’s career so far is defined by steady practice within a single regional firm. He has not been publicly credited with academic posts or widely reported precedent-setting cases, and his record is primarily that of an attorney handling routine and contested matters for clients in the firm’s service area. He continues to work for HoganWillig’s offices in western New York and serves clients through those regional locations. His current practice focuses on serving clients through HoganWillig’s regional offices across western New York.
