About Gregory Harden
Hello! I'm Greg
After building a successful real estate business over 25 years, including founding one of NYC's largest brokerage firms and building a multi-family portfolio, I chose to pursue my lifelong interest in law and international affairs - a passion that began during my studies at Georgetown's School of Foreign Service. I have completed my LLB in English Law at the University of Dundee in Scotland and an LLM specializing in International Financial Law at King's College London while maintaining my real estate practice. Having received notice of that the NY Board of Law Examiners have validated my educational credentials, I am now eager to begin my legal career, bringing my real-world business perspective to matters where business, finance, and law intersect.

INT'L FINANCIAL LAW
My LLM studies at King's College London focused on cross-border financial regulation, securities law, and emerging fintech issues. I have particular expertise in digital asset regulation frameworks and how they impact developing economies - the subject of my distinction-level dissertation. I bring a practical understanding of how international financial regulations intersect with business operations.

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
As co-founder and CEO of a top NYC real estate brokerage, I managed legal compliance across multiple regulatory frameworks while scaling operations to support 670+ agents. I'm skilled at identifying legal and operational risks, implementing effective compliance programs, and translating complex legal requirements into practical business solutions.
