Nikolaus Baikow, Esq.

Education: University of Pittsburgh - School of Law, J.D. 2013, Civil Litigation Certificate,

Nikolaus Baikow is an attorney who fights for fairness when institutions fail to protect the people they serve. As founder of Baikow Disability and Education Law Group, he represents parents, students, and employees navigating discrimination, disability rights, and education-law disputes. His mission is simple: to help ordinary people stand up to powerful systems and demand accountability under the ADA, IDEA, FMLA, Title IX, and related civil-rights laws.

Nikolaus draws on more than a decade of experience in disability rights, education law, and workplace equity. He began his career advocating under the Fair Housing Act, representing tenants and homeowners in discrimination and reasonable-accommodation cases. Later, as a small-business owner and solo practitioner, he learned the value of independence and direct advocacy. He went on to represent school districts and municipalities in special-education litigation, student-discipline hearings, and Title IX investigations.

That perspective now drives his work for families and employees seeking justice. Through his firm, Nikolaus provides direct representation, legal strategy, and compliance guidance for parents navigating IEPs and Section 504 plans, students facing exclusion or discrimination, and employees confronting workplace bias or retaliation. His approach is personal, practical, and relentless—focused on sustainable solutions, not quick fixes—and grounded in both human empathy and legal precision.
