Nichole Baer joined Russell, Krafft & Gruber, LLP in 2020 after several years in private practice with another Lancaster firm.  She is a graduate of Pennsylvania State University and Stetson University, College of Law.  While in law school, Nichole interned with the Honorable Amy Williams, an appellate judge for the Sixth Judicial Circuit of Florida and was Treasurer of the Intellectual Property Club.  

Nichole concentrates her practice in Business Law, Trademark, Estate Planning and Administration, and Real Estate, providing clients with targeted and effective legal representation. Nichole’s experience in several practice areas enables her to use a holistic approach to assist clients, recognizing that each client’s needs and wants differ.  Each of Nichole’s clients is provided a personalized legal plan, regardless if that plan is an Operating Agreement, a Trademark, resolving issues with the Department of Revenue, a real estate settlement, or drafting estate planning documents. In each case, clients receive personal attention and results that are tailored to their unique situation.

Nichole is currently the Co-Coordinator for Lancaster County’s Wills for Heroes Program.  She also serves as a Community Service Committee Member for Lancaster Young Professionals and a Resource Development Committee Member for the Community Action Partnership of Lancaster County.  She is a current member of Lancaster Young Professionals, Lancaster Bar Association, and Referral Partners Plus.  She is the past Real Estate chair for Lancaster County Bar Association and a former Co-Coordinator for Lancaster County’s division of the High School Mock Trials.  

While not working, Nichole enjoys volunteering in the community, exploring the outdoors, crafting, tasting wine, and cooking.
