Commercial & Business Attorney

Stop being a "Reviewer." Become a Deal-Maker.

Are you a 3–7 year Corporate Associate tired of being "Siloed" on one specific part of a transaction? Our client, a high-growth Columbia firm, is looking for a Corporate and Real Estate Attorney to bridge the gap between complex corporate law and high-stakes real estate development.

This isn't a back-office role. You will be the right hand to the Managing Partner, moving deals from "Letter of Intent" to "Closed."

The Package:

• Comp: Base salary $130k–$180k (DOE) + aggressive origination bonuses. For senior candidates with a portable book, total comp packages reach $200k+.
• The Track: Clear, documented path to Partnership.
• The Portfolio: M&A, Joint Ventures, Commercial Development, and Corporate Governance.

What You’ll Actually Do:

• Architect the Deal: You won't just "redline"; you'll structure purchase/sale agreements and navigate complex JVs.
• Command the Closing Table: Lead commercial real estate acquisitions, dispositions, and financing from start to finish.
• Direct Advisement: Act as outside General Counsel for regional businesses, guiding them through everything from formation to exit strategy.
• Master the Nuance: Navigate zoning, title commitments, and regulatory compliance with total confidence.

What Makes You the Closer?

• Experience: 3–7 years in Commercial/Corporate law. If you have a background in Commercial Real Estate, you’re at the top of our list.
• The License: Must be admitted to the South Carolina Bar.
• The Mindset: You can explain a "Waterfall Distribution" or a "Zoning Variance" to a CEO in plain English.
• The Drive: You are ready to stop billing hours for someone else’s legacy and start building your own.
