Nikolai Koolik

Legal Practitioner Director
LL.B, BBus (Man),
GradDipLP, LL.M

Nik is the Director of Koolik & Associates Lawyers and the firm’s ‘human engine room’.  It was Nik’s desire to help families through some of life’s most emotional challenges (separation, death and conveyancing) which inspired him to start the firm a decade ago. His core kindness and compassion make him not only a good person but an even better family lawyer.

Nik has over 14  years’ experience in the legal industry and holds a Master of Laws. This depth of expertise has developed strong skills in negotiating a resolution for clients, while simultaneously actually knowing what he’s talking about (this can be a rare commodity). His primary focus is to provide open communication with clients while taking as much stress as possible out of the legal process (Nik even has boxes of tissues and kilos of lollies strategically scattered throughout the office).

Nik takes his downtime almost as seriously as his work, and packs every second of spare time with activities that make him feel young again. Most people would put something hokey here, something about skiing or golf, but not Nik. He relishes Mexican food (the messier the better) spending time with his kids, and dragging his friends along to yet another superhero movie. Despite regularly pulling a hammy in the first 2 minutes of his touch footy games he never stops playing, and that says more about Nik than we ever could.
