About Nicole M.
Nicole M. Camporeale earned her law degree from Quinnipiac University School of Law in 2012 after completing a broad undergraduate program at Fairfield University in 2008, where she studied politics, Italian studies and studio arts. Her academic path combined legal training with liberal arts and language study. That mix shaped an approach attentive to detail and to the procedural side of law.
Early in her training she spent time inside the courthouse. In 2014 she served as a law student extern at the New Haven Probate Court. The placement gave her hands-on exposure to probate proceedings and the practical mechanics of court filings. It was one of the formative experiences of her early legal career.
She is admitted to practice in both New Jersey and Connecticut and holds a Connecticut notary public commission. Those credentials align with the region where she has built her practice and professional affiliations. Since 2015 she has been a member of the New Haven County Bar Association and the Connecticut Bar Association, associations that keep her connected to local developments and court practice.
Camporeale’s work has been anchored at a local firm setting. She works at Hoekenga, Machado & Lyon, LLC, where she takes on client matters that require attention to state court procedures and document handling. Her background in probate court informs the way she approaches estate-related paperwork and filings, and her notary commission supports the execution of documents that often accompany such matters.
Colleagues describe her as methodical in preparing filings and precise when managing the administrative aspects of cases. She applies the training from her law school years and her time in probate court to everyday client tasks. Those tasks often involve coordinating filings, preparing sworn documents and ensuring that procedural steps are observed in state court practice.
Outside of courtroom schedules she maintains ties to the legal community through her bar association memberships. They offer a regular forum for continuing education and for staying current on procedural and statutory changes at the state level. Her practice at Hoekenga, Machado & Lyon, LLC reflects that local orientation and procedural emphasis.
She continues to practice in New Jersey and Connecticut, handling matters that draw on her probate court experience and the practical requirements of state-level representation.
