Senior Commercial Real Estate Paralegal

About the Role

Join a commercial real estate legal team supporting sophisticated transactions for developers, property owners, investors, and lenders. You will work closely with practice leaders and manage transaction details with a high degree of independence.

What You'll Do

• Order and review title commitments and surveys, and help resolve title objections.

• Prepare closing documents, maintain closing checklists, and coordinate funds flow for commercial acquisitions, sales, leasing, and financing transactions.

• Manage due diligence, entity documents, and estoppels across multiple active deals.

• Coordinate post-closing recordings, filings, and follow-up items.

• Communicate with clients, opposing counsel, and title companies with minimal partner oversight.

What We're Looking For

• Five or more years of recent, continuous commercial real estate paralegal experience at a law firm, preferably in New Jersey.

• Hands-on experience with title, surveys, and commercial closings, including independently managing a transaction through post-closing.

• Experience beyond residential real estate closings, with a solid background in transactional real estate; land use experience is also relevant.

• Strong attention to detail, polished written work, and a stable employment history.
