Nicole Appleberry is a clinical professor of law at University of Michigan Law School and is the director of the Low Income Taxpayer Clinic. Her research and teaching interests focus on the legal issues involved when vulnerable populations are caught up in systems beyond experience and meaningful control-the intersection of tax law with other specialties such as poverty, disability, and domestic violence law; the empowerment of adversaries through mediation; and advancing social justice and developing legal skills through dialogue. Before serving at the university, Ms. Appleberry was an assistant prosecuting attorney in Livingston County, Michigan, from 1995 to 1999, where she focused on juvenile delinquency, domestic violence, and child abuse and neglect. She is currently of counsel at Ferguson Widmayer & Clark, PC, in Ann Arbor where she specializes in tax-related matters. Ms. Appleberry is a civil mediator, was chair of the Practice and Procedure Committee of the Taxation Section of the State Bar of Michigan, and served as cochair of the Taxation Section of the Washtenaw County Bar Association. In 2017, she was nominated for a Golden Apple Award, the only university-wide student-nominated award that recognizes outstanding teaching.
