MY STORY
Simon Nicholson is an Orlando personal injury attorney dedicated to helping clients with a wide range of injury and accident claims, including auto accidents, slip and fall incidents, rideshare crashes, and insurance disputes.
Simon Nicholson has always had a heart to serve others. At a young age, he and his family moved from Florida to the countries of Guatemala and later Mexico to serve the less fortunate. Simon and his family focused on helping the local youth through gang related outreach and also hosted medical teams from the U.S. who would travel to remote villages to care for people in need.
Growing up abroad and having the opportunity to be raised in an environment of constant service gave Simon a true understanding of the importance of compassion and the Golden Rule “Treat others how you want to be treated”.
“Treat others how you want to be treated”
After living abroad for approximately 15 years, Simon returned to Florida, where his passion led him to pursue a career in Law and ultimately founding Sunshine State Law Firm. Simon naturally gravitated towards the practice areas of Personal Injury, Homeowners Insurance Claims, and Immigration Law, where he and our Sunshine team continued to help people in need.
Simon Nicholson’s approach to personal injury representation goes beyond legal strategy — it is rooted in empathy, communication, and a commitment to ensuring each client feels heard and supported throughout the process. As an Orlando personal injury attorney, Simon recognizes that every client’s situation is unique, and he takes the time to learn the details of each case, answer questions clearly, and address concerns with honesty and care.
In addition to his work on auto accidents, slip and fall cases, and rideshare collisions, Simon helps clients navigate the challenges of insurance claim disputes and catastrophic injury matters. His broad experience allows him to anticipate common pitfalls that can weaken a claim, and to proactively build a strong case backed by evidence, expert testimony, and strategic negotiation. This comprehensive preparation often leads to better outcomes for his clients, whether through settlement or trial.
Simon also believes in educating his clients about the legal process so they know what to expect at each stage. His goal is to reduce stress and uncertainty for injured individuals and their families, allowing them to focus on recovery while he handles the legal complexities.
