Mike is a startup and venture capital lawyer, with a half-decade of prior experience as a mergers and acquisition attorney for various Fortune 500 clients. He joined the Bowery Legal team to pursue his goal of working with bright and pioneering founders in their early-stage companies, along with the investors who see the promise in backing and nurturing such ventures. He enjoys assisting young companies in the full gamut of legal matters that arise throughout a startup’s lifespan, from formation to financing to eventual acquisition or IPO, as well as in all the various day-to-day matters in between.
Mike graduated from Tulane University and NYU Law, and formerly practiced as a member of the corporate teams of Greenberg Traurig and Mayer Brown. He does his best to balance his love for traveling with not wanting to be away from his dog for too long, and you might bump into him playing pick-up basketball around New York City.

Enes was educated and trained as an attorney in Istanbul, Turkey, one of the greatest cities in the world to visit (and live)! After practicing at Baker McKenzie’s Istanbul office as an M&A associate for four years, he decided to pursue his dream to move to the US, and so he attended Duke Law, where he received an LLM. After Duke Law, Enes’s passion for entrepreneurial and technology related law lead him to apply for a job with Bowery Legal, where he joined the team in September of 2022.
Enes feels a deep connection to his work, and is strongly incentivized in his work with the founders, entrepreneurs and investors the Bowery Legal represents to help them make a lasting impact in the world with their innovative ideas, and to help their companies and/or funds achieve the highest heights possible. To that end, he assists clients from formation until exit and every other phase in-between. To keep fresh, Enes plays soccer in his free time (and is a huge fan of professional soccer as well) and enjoys open-mic stand-up comedy shows.
