A bit about us:

Most firms sell candidates on compensation. Some sell prestige. Some sell flexibility.

After spending time with the firm's Managing Partner, my biggest takeaway is that this firm sells something much harder to find: a genuinely sustainable long-term career path.

The Managing Partner joined the firm after spending time in both BigLaw and boutique environments and later stepped into a leadership role when the platform was a fraction of its current size. Since then, the firm has grown substantially while maintaining a culture that feels far more entrepreneurial, collaborative, and transparent than what is typically found at larger institutions. Today, the organization has grown to more than 120 professionals across multiple offices.

One thing that stood out throughout our conversation was the firm's commitment to succession planning and partnership development. This is not a place looking for leverage associates who will grind away for years without visibility into the future. The expectation is that talented attorneys who contribute to the firm's success will have a genuine opportunity to advance, build client relationships, and ultimately pursue partnership.

The firm understands it is not competing with the largest national firms on pure compensation alone. What it does offer is meaningful client contact, sophisticated work, substantial bonus opportunities, transparency around performance expectations, and the chance to build a career alongside colleagues who genuinely enjoy working together.

Perhaps the strongest indicator of the culture was hearing stories about the relationships that have been built internally over the years. Many attorneys have spent significant portions of their careers at the firm, creating an environment that feels less transactional and more like a long-term professional community. For attorneys looking beyond their next move and thinking about where they want to build the next decade of their career, that distinction matters.

Why join us?
  • Direct mentorship from established practice leaders
  • Partnership-track environment
  • Base salary approximately $140K–$225K
  • Significant bonus upside (senior associates can earn $75K–$100K+ in strong years)
Hybrid opportunity 3 days on site 2 days remote

Job Details

This Firms Real Estate Group is experiencing sustained growth and needs additional support to keep pace with demand.
Unlike many real estate practices where attorneys become highly specialized early, this role offers broad exposure across a wide range of commercial real estate matters.
The group handles acquisitions, dispositions, development work, permitting, land use matters, housing projects, and other complex commercial real estate transactions. Several senior attorneys are operating at capacity and continue to generate significant new business, creating a strong pipeline of work for incoming associates.
The ideal candidate will bring core transactional real estate experience and a willingness to take ownership of matters. Experience working with developers, participating in board appearances, handling permitting matters, or supporting development projects is particularly attractive, though the firm recognizes that many 4th–6th year attorneys are still building those skill sets.
For attorneys seeking a sophisticated real estate practice without the bureaucracy often associated with larger firms, this represents a compelling opportunity.
Highlights:
  • Boston or Worcester opportunity
  • Strong pipeline of transactional real estate work
  • Acquisitions and dispositions
  • Development and permitting matters
  • Land use and housing work
