Rehan Hasan, Esq.

Personal Introduction

With broad experience in corporate law, Rehan acts as outside general counsel for companies with either a specific business challenge or a variety of legal needs faced throughout the full life cycle – start-up to exit– of a business. He is the highest level of business lawyer that Colorado has to offer. He has run an award-winning independent law practice for a decade, supporting and mentoring others. Rehan relates to his clients and understands the challenges of owning and operating a business, as he has done so successfully many times for himself over the years. He changed the business and tech landscape as a Galvanize, InCubate, and Kenzie Academy founder. He has mentored other business owners for years through his work with The Unreasonable Group. This accelerator program seeks to support the innovative business professionals who are tackling some of the biggest problems we face on a global scale, including the future of fusion energy and solar-powered farming initiatives. Rehan is also well positioned to advise on non-legal needs, such as strategic planning, to strengthen a company and create a better-run business proactively. His understanding of the global business ecosystem, including its strengths, challenges, successes, and failures, is second to none. Rehan holds an LL.M. in taxation from New York University, the world’s most prestigious graduate tax program. His deep understanding of tax law has made him “the” local Denver Metro area resource on the sophisticated aspects of business tax practice. As outside business counsel, he has been involved in corporate restructuring and specialized tax and business setup plans for companies in a variety of areas, including tech, finance, and real estate. Rehan is known in the legal community for championing equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI). He is also known for starting and leading initiatives that our community needs. His career has intentionally included service to others, including impactful work as a past president of the ACLU of Colorado and the founding of the South Asian Bar Association of Colorado. In 2020, he was honored to be listed as “highly commended” by Chambers USA for the Diversity & Inclusion Lawyer of the Year award.
