A bit about us:

We're an established, mid-size regional law firm with a growing housing and commercial real estate transactional practice. We work with developers, lenders, and investors on projects that get built, not just papered — and we hire attorneys we trust to run deal work directly rather than sit behind layers of review

Why join us?

Direct client and deal contact early — you're not waiting years for real transactional responsibility. The work spans affordable housing developments alongside conventional commercial deals, so the entity and governance work stays varied. Billable expectations are set below typical big-firm norms, built for a sustainable pace. Compensation is transparent and tied to experience, not opaque lockstep. Real path to partner-track visibility at a firm small enough that your work gets noticed.

Job Details

You'll form, structure, and maintain the corporate entities — LLCs, partnerships, corporations — that sit underneath housing and commercial real estate deals: drafting operating agreements and governance documents, structuring joint ventures and syndications, running entity-level diligence on acquisitions and financings, handling multi-jurisdiction formation and qualification filings, and keeping closings clean on the entity side.

Must-have: 3–8 years of corporate/transactional experience (candidates somewhat outside this range considered based on depth); active law license in the Southeast, required, no exceptions; substantial hands-on experience with LLC formation and entity governance; strong independent drafting and deal-management ability. Advanced tax or corporate-tax background is a plus, not a requirement.
