Please join us in welcoming UHAB’s new General Counsel Alexis Lorenzo. 

Alexis brings over two decades of legal experience in civil litigation and transactional work with a deep focus on housing justice. Before joining UHAB, she led the Neighborhood Stabilization Project at Bronx Legal Services, where she worked to combat predatory lending and support low-income cooperative housing. Her career has included roles in both public interest and private practice. 

In her words, “I am absolutely thrilled to have been selected as UHAB’s next General Counsel. In this role I can leverage my background in housing justice issues for a different, but still highly impactful, purpose… My core motivations and commitment to the public remain the same, to use my legal skills to effect positive change in the affordable housing landscape, but now my strategy for achieving that change has evolved into advancing the cause of developing and preserving safe and affordable housing, as in-house counsel to UHAB.”

We are excited to welcome Alexis to UHAB and look forward to the contributions she brings to our team!
