About Nicholas
Biography
Nick’s practice is devoted entirely to property tax appeals throughout Minnesota. Nick represents owners and occupants of all types of commercial property, including apartments, shopping centers, hotels, auto dealerships, office buildings, industrial facilities, and medical office buildings. Each year, Nick achieves substantial reductions in his clients’ assessed values, yielding millions of dollars in tax savings.
In 2022, Nick was first awarded the AV-Preeminent Rating, which is Martindale-Hubbell‘s highest peer rating standard, signifying a large number of his peers rank him at the highest level of professional excellence for his legal knowledge, communication skills, and ethical standards. Nick’s peers rated him 5.0/5.0.
Nick was selected as a Minnesota Super Lawyer in 2022, 2023, 2024, and again in 2025. Prior to that, for nine consecutive years (2010-2018), Nick was the only Minnesota property tax lawyer selected as a Rising Star by Super , Minneapolis Saint Paul magazine, Minnesota Law & Politics magazine, and Twin Cities Business magazine. The Super Lawyers-Rising Stars list represents the top Minnesota attorneys age 40 or younger. Nick was also recognized by Minnesota Monthly as a Top Lawyer in 2025.
Nick was the IPT’s 2021 Annual Conference-Property Tax Chair, and Chair of the IPT’s 2014 Property Tax Symposium. He served on the IPT Property Tax Symposium Committee from 2010-2021. Nick is also a past Chairman of the Minnesota State Bar Association’s Tax Council.
Since 2016, Nick has served as a Regional Editor of the ABA’s Property Tax Deskbook, and for nearly two decades, Nick has been a frequent lecturer on the topics of property taxes, valuation, legal writing, and negotiation to audiences of appraisers, attorneys, commercial real estate brokers, property managers, and corporate tax personnel.

Nicholas Alexander Furia's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I have known Nick throughout his entire legal career and wholeheartedly endorse his property tax work. In addition to getting great results for his clients, Nick has become the first attorney many clients call for referrals outside his specialty, which demonstrates the level of trust his clients have in him."
"I have known Nick for over fifteen years, both as a good friend and fellow attorney. Over the years, I have witnessed Nick develop into one of the elite property tax attorneys in Minnesota. Nick's ability to communicate aggressively, candidly, and fairly with county assessors and county attorneys has led to some pretty amazing settlements for his clients over the years. Whether you own an office tower or a small retail property, Nick can be a very powerful ally in your efforts to reduce your property taxes."
"Nick is arguably the best property tax lawyer in Minnesota, and I refer clients who own or lease commercial property to Nick with the utmost confidence. I have known Nick both as a former colleague and good friend for several years, and the property tax savings he negotiates on behalf of his clients are at times mind-boggling."
