Real Estate Attorney-Retail Leasing

Leasing Attorney

$200000 - $240000 per year | Dallas, TX | On-site | Permanent

Commercial Leasing Attorney | Law Firm | Mid-Level ~ Senior candidates welcome

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.

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.

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. 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; strong independent drafting and negotiation skills on leases; based in or willing to relocate to Dallas, in-office 3-4 days/week.

We provide an inclusive work environment that celebrates diversity and all qualified candidates receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, national origin, age (40 and over), disability, military status, genetic information or any other basis protected by applicable federal, state, or local laws. It is Jobot’s policy to comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws respecting consideration of unemployment status in making hiring decisions.

Jobot will consider qualified candidates with criminal histories in a manner consistent with any applicable federal, state, or local law regarding criminal backgrounds, including but not limited to the Los Angeles Fair Chance Initiative for Hiring and the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance.
