Is there a simpler or less ugly way to call .Contains() on a string that is potentially null then by doing:
Assert.IsTrue((firstRow.Text ?? "").Contains("SomeText"));

An empty string is a String object with an assigned value, but its length is equal to zero. A null string has no value at all. A blank String contains only whitespaces, are is neither empty nor null , since it does have an assigned value, and isn't of 0 length.
Contains() method in C# is case sensitive. And there is not StringComparison parameter available similar to Equals() method, which helps to compare case insensitive.
In C#, IsNullOrEmpty() is a string method. It is used to check whether the specified string is null or an Empty string. A string will be null if it has not been assigned a value. A string will be empty if it is assigned “” or String.
I'd suggest using Assert.That syntax:
Assert.That(firstRow.Text, Does.Contain("SomeText"));
If you need to check that text is not containing a certain string:
Assert.That(firstRow.Text, Does.Not.Contain("SomeText"));
