The Daily Record’s Power 20 Real Estate Law 2023
Daily Record Staff//March 16, 2023//
We are excited to continue to build on our Power List program with our second list of 2023: our Power 20 Real Estate Law list.

This list includes lawyers who have spent much of their career working in real estate law.
The people on this list help clients — both individuals and companies — navigate complex transaction processes to help fulfill their personal dreams or organizational goals. Their job has been made even more difficult over the past three years. The COVID-19 pandemic, rising inflation and interest rates, and uncertain economic conditions have made the real estate industry even more difficult to navigate. These attorneys continued to serve their clients admirably while navigating new ways of doing business thanks to restrictions that limited or halted face-to-face meetings.
As with our previous lists, the Power 20 Real Estate Law list is presented in alphabetical order. And again, rather than tell you about all of these power players’ accomplishments and accolades, we decided to give them a chance to tell you more about themselves through their answers to a few different questions. For anyone who was unable to complete our questionnaire, we put together a small profile.
I welcome any feedback you have at [email protected]. If you would like to recommend someone for next year’s Power 20 Real Estate Law list or any of our other Power Lists, you can do so at https://nydailyrecord.com/power-list-recommendation-form/.
