  • Stay current on South Carolina real estate laws, recording requirements, and local practices.
  • Support related estate planning or probate matters as needed.
  • Maintain accurate files, deadlines, and checklists to ensure smooth, timely closings.

What You’ll Bring

  • Juris Doctor (JD) from an accredited law school.
  • Active license in South Carolina (in good standing).
  • 1–3+ years of experience in real estate transactions preferred; estate planning exposure a plus.
  • Exceptional client service, responsiveness, and professional communication.
  • Strong organization and analytical skills; accuracy under deadlines.
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative team.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Health insurance contribution.
  • 401(k) with up to a 4% match (vesting after 1 year).
  • 15 days of PTO, plus firm holidays.

  • Supportive, team-oriented environment with professional development and growth opportunities.
