Angela Nieves, Esq.

Angela is a first generation American, the first lawyer in her family, and the proud daughter of Colombian parents!

Angela’s experience as a professional musician in the South Florida area and later as a translator in broadcast television gave rise to her interest in intellectual property matters. She graduated summa cum laude from St. Thomas College of Law with a Certificate in Intellectual Property Law, serving as both President of the school’s IP and Cyber Law Society and Managing Editor of the St. Thomas Law Review. In addition to earning numerous awards for academic accomplishments, Angela has authored three articles – on trademarks, cyber insurance, and facial recognition technology – that have been published by leading law journals.

Prior to joining SRIPLAW, Angela interned for Chief Judge Barbara M.G. Lynn at the Northern District of Texas in Dallas, and worked in intellectual property as well as commercial litigation firms in the South Florida area. In her free time, Angela enjoys spending time with her husband, especially when it involves travel or a nice glass of wine.
