WHY THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY

  • Join a well-established, full-service law firm with nearly a century of legal excellence and a robust commercial real estate practice serving sophisticated clients — investors, developers, sponsors, and franchise operators
  • Handle complex, high-value transactions from start to finish — purchase and sale agreements, commercial leases, acquisitions, dispositions, and corporate finance — with real ownership over your matters
  • Work directly with experienced partners on sophisticated deals while managing your own day-to-day responsibilities and client relationships
  • Origination credit available — your business development efforts are recognized and rewarded, not just tracked
  • Discretionary year-end bonus and merit-based increases on top of a highly competitive base salary
  • Comprehensive benefits: medical, dental, vision, life and disability insurance, 401(k), paid time off, and access to additional voluntary programs
  • Hybrid flexibility after 90 days — get established with the team and then enjoy a blended work arrangement
  • A collaborative firm culture built on integrity, innovation, and genuine investment in its attorneys' growth and long-term success

Location: Based in our Greenwich, CT office, this role starts on-site and transitions to a hybrid schedule after 90 days — giving you the runway to build strong relationships with the team before enjoying the flexibility of a blended work arrangement. Connecticut bar admission required; NY and/or NJ admission a strong plus.

Note: This role requires 5+ years of experience in commercial real estate and corporate transactions, with hands-on experience handling deals from drafting through closing. Connecticut bar admission is required. Candidates without a commercial real estate transactional background will not be considered.

  • Assist in structuring and negotiating corporate finance transactions including loan documentation and related agreements
  • Represent borrowers and lenders in financing transactions, including those involving franchise businesses
  • Conduct thorough due diligence including title and survey review, and coordinate with all transaction parties to keep deals on track
  • Provide strategic guidance to clients on transactional matters and business objectives
  • Collaborate with partners and senior attorneys on complex matters while independently managing day-to-day responsibilities across your own docket

QUALIFICATIONS

  • J.D. from an accredited law school with strong academic credentials
  • Admission to practice in Connecticut required; NY and/or NJ admission a significant plus
  • 5+ years of experience in commercial real estate and corporate transactions in a law firm setting
  • Experience with commercial leasing, acquisitions and dispositions, and financing transactions required
  • Familiarity with franchise-related transactions or franchise finance a plus

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.
