  • Work alongside practice leaders on marquee matters such as CMBS loans, 1031 exchanges, and mixed-use redevelopments

What You Bring

  • 3+ years of recent, continuous commercial real estate transactional experience at a law firm
  • The confidence and judgment to take a file and run it
  • A track record of stability and commitment in your prior roles
  • Excellent writing and close attention to detail
  • A business-minded, client-facing approach. xuwmhxw You help deals get done.
  • Active bar admission, or eligibility, in New Jersey

The Details

  • Compensation: $175K – $250K base, based on experience
  • Hybrid: 4 days a week in office
