Associate
Christopher L. Nichols is a native Texan born in Texarkana and raised in the picturesque piney woods of northeast Texas. Chris began his formal education at Baylor University where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology with a minor in Argumentation and Rhetoric. He continued his post-graduate education at Texas Tech University School of Law and earned his Juris Doctorate while clerking for the Houston-based law firm of Littlepage Booth. Mr. Nichols later joined the practice as an associate where he aggressively litigated personal injury claims involving defective pharmaceutical drugs and medical devices. Mr. Nichols enjoyed a successful multi-state legal practice, highlighted by his work successfully co-defending an $11.5 million dollar verdict before the United States Supreme Court.
In his search for a more localized practice, Chris joined the Randle Law Office Ltd., L.L.P. in March 2007. Since that time, he has enjoyed a robust practice counseling local Texas municipalities through the ever changing nuances of municipal, regulatory and administrative law. He balances his transactional practice with litigation matters in state and federal court, concentrating specifically in the areas of real estate litigation, homeowner and property owner associations, title and boundary disputes, landlord-tenant issues and state licensing and regulation. He also handles business and commercial litigation matters, estate planning and probate, insurance and surety disputes and consumer protection issues.
In addition to his regular practice, Chris frequently lectures on legal topics of interest for the Houston Bar Association’s Speakers’ Bureau and is a member of the Real Estate and Appellate Law sections. Chris also periodically volunteers for the trial advocacy programs of the University of Houston Law Center and South Texas College of Law and offers his time to other various public interest groups.
