Hello! I'm Greg
After building a successful real estate business over 25 years — including co-founding one of NYC's largest independent brokerages and a multi-family investment portfolio — I returned to a lifelong interest in law and international affairs that first took root during my studies at Georgetown's School of Foreign Service. While continuing to run my real estate practice, I completed an LL.B. in English Law at the University of Dundee and an LL.M. in International Financial Law at King's College London. Having passed the Solicitors Qualifying Exam Part 1 (2025) and the New York State Bar Exam (2026), I am now looking to launch my legal career as an admitted attorney — bringing a business owner's perspective to matters where law, finance, and commerce intersect.

EXPERTISE
INT'L FINANCIAL LAW
My LLM studies at King's College London focused on cross-border financial regulation, securities law, and emerging fintech issues. My distinction-level examined digital asset regulation frameworks and how they impact developing economies
REAL ESTATE LAW & BUSINESS
With over 25 years of experience as a broker, investor, and brokerage CEO, I've handled hundreds of real estate transactions and navigated complex regulatory environments. My expertise spans residential and commercial transactions, landlord-tenant matters, property management, and brokerage operations - bringing practical business insight to legal issues in the industry.
BUSINESS OPS &
COMPLIANCE
Currently leading a multi-state licensing and compliance initiative across 17 jurisdictions — researching regulations, forming entities, and preparing broker applications — I bring the same operational rigor I applied as co-founder and CEO of a top NYC brokerage supporting 670+ agents. Skilled at identifying legal risks and translating complex requirements into practical business solutions.
