To join two independent clauses using nevertheless, you put one independent clause that is contrary to the second, put a comma after the first clause, insert "nevertheless" plus another comma, and then put in the second independent clause.
For example, take the independent clauses "I lost my well-prepared notes" and "I gave an excellent speech". You would start out with, "I lost my well-prepared notes" and put a comma after it. Then you would add in "nevertheless" along with another comma and the second independent clause.
The finished product would look like this:
"I lost my well-prepared notes, nevertheless, I gave an excellent speech."
I hope I helped.
Happy Spelling!
