About Nicholas M
Nicholas M Klimas is a Colorado-licensed attorney whose career moved quickly from a first job as an associate to a firm partnership in a few years. He earned his law degree from the University of Florida in 2015 and began practicing in the Denver area soon after. He has remained active in the Colorado legal community since that time.
Fresh out of law school, Klimas joined Mile High Estate Planning as an associate in 2015. The role placed him squarely in estate planning work early in his career. A year later he opened his own practice and served as managing lawyer at Klimas Law Office, LLC. That period allowed him to take on case management duties and handle client-facing responsibilities across estate-related matters.
By 2020 Klimas moved into a partnership role at Gendelman Klimas Edwards Ltd. Colleagues describe the transition as the result of steady client work and a willingness to take on the administrative and supervisory tasks that running a firm requires. At the partner level he continued to advise individuals and families on planning and probate matters while helping shape internal practice procedures.
Klimas’s professional recognitions include repeated selection to SuperLawyers Rising Stars from 2019 through 2023 and inclusion in Best Lawyers’ Lawyers to Watch list. Those nods reflect peer recognition over several consecutive years. He also maintains active professional memberships in state and local legal organizations.
His background shows a through line: early experience at an estate planning firm, a period running a small shop, and then partnership at a broader practice. That path gave him sustained exposure to wills, trusts, and probate administration. He has experience counseling clients on practical steps to protect assets and facilitate transitions after incapacity or death.
Clients and other attorneys who have worked with him often point to his steady handling of routine and contested matters alike. He balances casework with the administrative demands of firm leadership, overseeing associate workloads and contributing to client intake systems.
Klimas practices in Colorado and is a partner at Gendelman Klimas Edwards Ltd. He currently handles estate planning and related probate matters in his practice.
