The posting

Offit Kurman is seeking an experienced Construction Attorney to join our growing New York office. This attorney will focus on representing architects, engineers, and other design professionals in connection with construction projects, contracts, risk management, and day-to-day legal counseling.

The ideal candidate will have experience serving as trusted counsel to design professionals, advising on the negotiation and drafting of professional services agreements, construction contracts, project disputes, and business-related matters. We are particularly interested in attorneys who understand the unique legal and business issues facing architects, engineers, and construction industry clients. While the position is primarily advisory and transactional, experience handling construction litigation, professional liability matters, or design defect disputes is a plus.

Responsibilities

  • Advise architects, engineers, and other design professionals on legal and business matters
  • Draft, review, and negotiate professional services agreements and construction-related contracts
  • Counsel clients on risk management, project delivery, and contract administration
  • Assist clients with dispute avoidance and resolution strategies
  • Provide practical day-to-day legal guidance throughout the lifecycle of construction and development projects
  • Support litigation and dispute matters when necessary

Qualifications

  • 8+ years of experience in construction law
  • Experience with AIA contracts
  • Admission to practice in New York
  • Ability to serve as outside general counsel to sophisticated design and construction clients
  • Strong drafting, negotiation, and client counseling skills
  • Litigation experience is a plus but not required

This is an excellent opportunity to join a growing practice and work closely with architects, engineers, and other design professionals on sophisticated construction and business matters.

Salary range: $175,000–$325,000. Compensation will be determined based on the candidate's experience, qualifications, and whether they come with a book of business.

To apply, please send your resume to Leigh Novack

Recruiters: Please do not submit candidates directly. All recruiters must contact Leigh Novack prior to presenting candidates for consideration.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
