Article IV: Counsel
Joel Nath built Proper Tea Law on more than a decade of Colorado Springs real estate work as a top-producing, nationally recognized Realtor specializing in foreclosures and distressed sales, then as owner and managing broker of Stone Gable Realty. Preceded by two master’s degrees, Joel earned his J.D. from the University of Denver’s Sturm College of Law, ranking in the top 10% of his class. Combined with years of leadership experience in the Army and Army Reserve Special Operations community, that background provides clients with counsel from someone who has worked the deal from every side of the table.
