NEW YORK CITY—Real estate attorney Alexa Klein has joined the legal staff of Joshua Stein, following seven years as an in-house counsel, operations director, CEO and small business owner here.

She joins the firm after serving at Latham & Watkins—where she worked with and was mentored by Stein in the firm's real estate practice group—from 2004 to 2008. Following that post, according to LinkedIn.com, she went to Gemini Real Estate Advisors as VP and senior counsel.

Klein has represented clients on all sides of transactions. She has handled acquisitions, dispositions and financings, development rights transactions, commercial property agreements, office leases and loan transactions.

In 2009, Klein shifted into entrepreneurship, as well as the business world and, in 2010, opened a children's yoga studio and company here. She became CEO and co-owner of Yogi Beans, which she still co-owns, for six years.

She also served as director of operations for Success Academy Charter Schools, a high-performing New York City charter school network. In that capacity, she oversaw a team that handled construction, permit filings, design and building management issues.

“Alexa was a valuable member of our legal team at Latham and I'm delighted she is rejoining me as counsel at my firm,” says Stein.

The law firm of Joshua Stein handles commercial real estate financing, leasing, development, hotel transactions, and acquisitions.
