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.

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.

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