New York, New York, United States - 03-27-2023 -

Nicole M. Conger, Owner and Employment Attorney at The Law Office of Nicole Conger, PLLC, was recently selected as Empowered Woman of the Year for 2023 by the International Association of Top Professionals (IAOTP), for her outstanding leadership, dedication and commitment to practicing labor and employment law.

While inclusion with the International Association of Top Professionals (IAOTP) is an honor, only a few women are chosen for this distinction based on their years of experience, professional accomplishments, academic achievements, leadership abilities, and contributions to their communities. These women empower others with innovation and compassion to reach their goals while creating change for future generations.  Nicole will be honored at IAOTP’s Annual Awards Gala for this distinction at the NYC Plaza Hotel this December.

The President of IAOTP, Stephanie Cirami, stated “Having Nicole as a member of IAOTP is a great privilege for all of us. She is a ray of sunshine, talented, gifted with exceptional vision, and has achieved unparalleled success in her field. Our group agreed that she would be a tremendous contribution to our group of business associates. We cannot wait to celebrate her at this year's Annual Awards Gala.”

With more than a decade of professional experience as a talented Employee Rights Attorney, Nicole has certainly proven herself as an expert within her field. She is a dynamic results-driven leader who has demonstrated success and advancement throughout her entire career. Currently, Nicole represents clients across Texas who are subjected to illegal treatment with their current or former employers. With each case and client, Nicole leaves a meaningful impact with her generous amounts of time, clarity and follow through at each stage of the case.

The Law Office of Nicole Conger, PLLC., is located in Austin, Texas. Nicole is licensed to practice in the state of Texas and is admitted in all Federal Courts including the Northern, Southern, Eastern, Western Districts, and the Texas State Courts. 

Nicole’s practice area includes age discrimination, family and medical leave, disability discrimination, sexual harassment, race discrimination, non-compete, religious discrimination, defamation, libel, slander, pregnancy discrimination, sexual orientation, gender identity discrimination, severance review, and negotiation.  Furthermore, Nicole is a member of the Texas Bar Foundation, State Bar of Texas, Texas Young Lawyers Association, Austin Bar Association, Texas Employment Lawyers, Texas Exes, Federal Club HRC, and AYLA Leadership Academy Class of 2015.

Before embarking on her professional career path, Nicole graduated Summa Cum Laude from the University of Texas in 2006 and earned a Business Management degree from the Red McCombs School of Business. She completed her studies and earned her Juris Doctorate in 2011 from St. Mary’s University School of Law. 

Her impressive repertoire of prior roles includes her experience as a Judicial Intern for the Honorable Emilio M. Garza on the United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit. She was the Associate Editor for St. Mary’s Law Journal and a member of the board of advocates. Nicole served as a Summer Associate for Strasburger & Price, LLP., and she was a Trial Attorney for the Ross Law Group. Nicole is also a Licensed Real Estate Salesperson.

Throughout her illustrious career, Nicole has received awards, accolades and was recognized worldwide for her expertise in employment law. This year she is being considered for a feature article in TIP (Top Industry Professional) Magazine and to be featured on the famous Nasdaq Billboard in Times Square NYC.  Nicole will be honored for the Empowered Woman of the Year Award given by the International Association of Top Professionals (IAOTP) at their annual awards gala being held at the Plaza Hotel in NYC this December. She was honored for her distinction as Top Attorney of the Year for 2022 at IAOTP’s Annual Awards Gala which was held at the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas.

Nicole has received numerous awards and accolades throughout her successful career and was recognized as one of the Top 50 Women in Law by the Diversity Council, adding to her already impressive resume. In 2020, Nicole was one of Go's 100 Women We Love, and in 2022, she was featured on the cover of The Top 100 Magazine's list of the country's top 100 attorneys. Nicole was given one of the greatest accolades in the legal profession when she was named a Fellow by the Texas Bar Foundation, an award reserved for the top one-third of the top one percent of lawyers. Nicole is an involved member of the Austin community who has contributed significantly to HRC, the Better Business Bureau, AIDS Services Austin, and the campaigns of other democratic candidates. She has been a Pearl Sponsor of the HRC Pride Black-Tie Dinner and a supporter of Lambda Legal and Equality Texas. Nicole also serves on the Board of Directors for Unbroken Horizons, an organization she is passionate about. 

Looking back, Nicole attributes her success to her affinity for diversity, her doggedness, her empathy, and her mastery of labor and employment law. In her spare time when not working, Nicole enjoys traveling abroad seeing new places.  For the future, Nicole plans to keep fighting for her clients' rights in state and federal courts to prevent discrimination against big and small businesses.
