Nicholas P. Andrews

My name is Nicholas Andrews. I decided to become a lawyer when I was a junior in high school. Before that, I never really knew what I wanted to be. In elementary school I thought I would be a fireman because they drove cool trucks, or maybe an “army guy” like my big brother. In junior high, I thought about being a chemist. But I quickly discovered I was not cut out for that. Nothing else really appealed to me, until I heard someone mention how someone else would make a good lawyer. That got me thinking that maybe I could do that.

That thought stuck in my head for the next two years. Then I went off to college to get my undergraduate degrees in Western Legal Traditions and Politics & Policy. I graduated in 2017 and moved on to law school. I attended Liberty University School of Law. While there, I was a member of the Moot Court Board and the Alternative Dispute Resolution Board. I also did my share of competitions. In moot court, I was runner-up at the intermural tournament. But my greatest achievement was in the negotiations team. My partner and I were finalists in the mid-atlantic regional ABA tournament two years in a row, earning back-to-back invitations to the National ABA tournament, where we were quarterfinalists our first year and placed 11th our second. This was the first time a team from Liberty had ever received back-to-back invitations to nationals. For our accomplishment, we were awarded the Liberty University Alternative Dispute Resolution Award. One of my favorite experiences in law school was helping small businesses and non-profits in the LUSOL Trademark Clinic.

I graduated in 2020 in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. I immediately began to study for the bar. And after several hardships that included shifting to remote exams, changing states, and faulty exam software, I passed. I then decided to start my law firm. Inspired by the entrepreneurs who braved the pandemic, I decided to dedicate my firm to serving small businesses. So, I started Victrix Legal, LLC. Victrix Legal is a modern law office, designed to serve professionals. I am dedicated to providing effective and efficient legal representation while ensuring an outstanding client experience. Our mission is to help our clients build, protect, and grow their organizations.
