He heads the firm's Appeals Group, arguing most of the firm's appeals and supervising a team of partners and associates in all phases of appellate practice. Over the past two decades, Mr. Turkel has won many important and ground breaking appeals in the areas of real estate, rent regulation, landlord-tenant, condemnation, and constitutional law.

He is a frequent media source on rent regulatory matters and has published extensively in such journals as The New York Real Estate Law Reporter, of which he is on the Board of Advisors, and Environmental Law in New York.
