Commercial Leasing Attorney | Law Firm | Mid-Level ~ Senior candidates welcome This Jobot Job is hosted by: Trey Mattson Are you a fit? Easy Apply now by clicking the "Quick Apply" button and sending us your resume. Salary: $200,000 - $240,000 per year A bit about us: Our client is a midsized Dallas firm built around one idea: senior people should be running deals, not buried in them. Our real estate group represents both sides of the table — landlords and developers building shopping centers, and national retail tenants leasing space in them — on deals that touch some of the most recognizable retail brands in the country. We've stayed intentionally mid-sized so attorneys keep direct client relationships instead of disappearing into a staffing pyramid. Why join us? Run leasing matters with real autonomy — the scope of what you own grows with your experience, not your tenure on a partner's deal team. Billable target sits at 1,800–1,900 hours, meaningfully lower than the 2,200+ grind at bigger shops, and we mean it in practice, not just on paper. Job Details You'll handle retail leasing matters for both landlords/developers and national tenants — drafting, negotiating, and closing leases, with exposure to related acquisitions, dispositions, and financing work. The level of independence and matter complexity scales to your experience: mid-level associates get real ownership with backup when they need it; senior associates and very senior attorneys get full autonomy and a direct hand in how the practice runs. Must-haves: meaningful commercial real estate transactional experience with substantial retail leasing reps (landlord-side, tenant-side, or both) — we consider candidates from roughly 3 years up through very senior levels, with no fixed cutoff; active Texas bar admission; strong independent drafting and negotiation skills on leases; based in or willing to relocate to Dallas, in-office 3–4 days/week. Comp: base starting in the low-to-mid $200Ks and scaling with experience, negotiable for the right background — we've moved meaningfully above range for the right fit — plus standard firm benefits.
