Job Description

Associate Attorney Opportunity | Chicago, IL | Remote Flexibility

A boutique, women-owned law firm in Chicago is seeking a newly licensed Associate Attorney to join its growing team. This is an excellent opportunity for an attorney interested in building a career in transactional real estate law , with hands-on training and mentorship provided.

 

About the Role

This practice is focused on residential and commercial real estate transactions , with some additional work in estate planning and corporate formation . Prior real estate experience is not required —the firm is open to training a newly licensed attorney with strong interpersonal skills and an interest in client-facing work and business development.

 

Key Responsibilities

·      Support residential and commercial real estate transactions from contract through closing

·      Attend in-person closings

·      Communicate directly with clients, agents, lenders, and other transaction parties

·      Draft and review transactional documents with partner oversight

·      Assist with related matters including estate planning and corporate formation

·      Build and maintain relationships through networking and business development efforts

Qualifications

·      J.D. and active Illinois bar license, or pending admission

·      Strong communication and relationship-building skills

·      Ambitious, outgoing, and interested in business development

·      Able to thrive in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment

·      Genuine interest in transactional real estate practice

 

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

·      Training and mentorship from experienced partners

·      Early opportunity to develop a personal book of business

·      Collaborative, supportive, and non-corporate culture

·      Clear path for long-term growth

 

Compensation & Benefits:

  • Base salary: $80,000-85,000
  • Bonus: Percentage of business generated (increasing annually)
  • No billable hour requirement
  • Full benefits package (health, PTO, etc.)
  • Gas reimbursement for closings
  • Flexible work environment with remote capability (aside from closings)

If you’re a newly licensed attorney looking for a strong training ground in real estate law with remote flexibility and growth potential, apply today!
