Position Overview: As Corporate Counsel at Modigent, you will provide high-impact in-house legal support across our national platform of HVAC, plumbing, and controls services companies.

You will serve as a trusted business partner to executive and senior leadership, operating company teams, and project personnel, supporting acquisitions and integrations while delivering actionable guidance that enables business growth and operational excellence.
Duties and Responsibilities:
- Draft, review, redline, and negotiate prime contracts, master service agreements, subcontracts, professional services agreements, vendor/supplier contracts, and purchase order terms and conditions using AIA, ConsensusDocs, and custom forms.

- Support the development and maintenance of standard contract templates and playbooks tailored to Modigent's operations.
- Manage and resolve construction claims and disputes, including notices to cure, delay claims, non-payment disputes (i.e., lien and bond claims), and related matters. Collaborate with operations, insurance carriers, sureties, and outside counsel on the resolution of such claims and disputes.
- Provide practical legal guidance to executive and senior leadership, operating company teams, and project personnel on commercial agreements and operational matters.
