Episode 102: Nick Bowers, NYC’s TOP Estate Lawyer Answers the Hard Questions!

I'm very pleased to have Nick Bowers on the Real Takk Podcast.  Nick is one of the best lawyers focused on real estate & estate matters.  We talk about the importance of creating an estate for your family, the costs, in which scenario estate law supersedes coop & condo boards, and the house rules that govern their operation.  Does the coop stock & lease supersede the legal will? What happens when a death takes place and the real estate is left to their 'next of kin'?  Nick is here to answer the TOUGH questions.  

 

I connected around 7 years ago at a real estate closing & had a few opportunities to work with my clients on various estate matters.  Nick is a lifelong New Yorker, born & raised in Manhattan & grew up in the Flatiron area where we are recording today.  This is an important episode that everybody should listen to not just for financial reasons, but to ensure that your family is protected in the long term. 

 

We’ll get to know more about Nick shortly, but to give you his general background, he did his undergrad in BU, law school at Pace, and currently runs an office of lawyers with his new partner Andrew Jorges whom I work closely with on a day to day basis on our deals.

 

Nick has glowing reviews online which I’ll share a few excerpts from:

Kevin G writes: “I rarely have an experience with a positive lawyer. I always get stuck with a bill that is unexpectedly high or getting shuffled between junior less experienced lawyers.  That said, working with Nick has been awesome. He is thoughtful and thorough. He takes ownership for his work and follows the steps and details of the transaction closely.”

Dan P writes: Nick made me feel like I was his only client (although I know I wasn't) with remarkably quick and accurate responses. I've done 19 real estate transactions, and Nick is head and shoulders above the rest in managing closes. I would recommend Nick to anyone. Many thanks Nick.“
