WHY THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY

  • Join a nationally recognized, mid-sized law firm with nearly 50 years of focused experience at the intersection of business and government — and a reputation for outperforming larger competitors on quality and outcomes
  • Work on genuinely complex, high-value real estate transactions — from one of the nation's largest agricultural land purchases to multi-block urban transit-oriented developments — no routine work here
  • Collaborate directly with experienced partners in a small, well-regarded real estate group where your contributions are visible and your development is prioritized
  • 1,700-hour annual billable requirement (including up to 100 hours of pro bono or business development) — a realistic target that supports work/life balance without sacrificing career growth
  • Generous bonus structure for attorneys who exceed the target
  • Flexible scheduling within a hybrid model — 3 days/week or 12 days/month in-office, with autonomy over how you structure your time
  • Competitive compensation plus a comprehensive benefits package: medical, dental, vision, 401(k) profit-sharing, paid time off, paid holidays, parental leave, life and disability insurance, EAP resources, and professional development support
  • Regular feedback, training opportunities, and a firm culture built on mutual respect and genuine investment in its people

Location: This role is ideally based in our Seattle office, with openings also available in our Bay Area, Houston, and Washington, DC offices. We operate on a hybrid schedule — primarily in-office with flexibility built in — in a professional environment where collaboration and accountability go hand in hand.

Note: Candidates must be a licensed attorney with 3+ years of direct experience in commercial real estate transactions, including drafting and negotiating acquisition, disposition, leasing, and/or financing documents. Active bar admission or eligibility to waive into the relevant jurisdiction is required.

  • Proactively identify legal and business issues, analyze risk in context, and propose practical, well-reasoned solutions
  • Advance transactions independently with minimal oversight, exercising sound judgment and an ownership mindset
  • Collaborate directly with partners and clients, providing responsive, business-minded counsel on complex matters
  • Manage multiple concurrent workstreams with close attention to detail and a commitment to accuracy under deadline

QUALIFICATIONS

  • JD or LLM from an ABA-accredited law school

  • Excellent oral communication skills and ability to interact clearly and directly with clients and colleagues
  • Strong organizational skills with high attention to detail and accuracy

WHY YOU WILL LOVE WORKING HERE

Our real estate team is small, collegial, and widely respected for handling sophisticated work that most attorneys only read about. You won't be lost in a bureaucracy — you'll be known, supported, and rewarded. The firm has built something rare: a high-performance culture that genuinely values balance, invests in feedback and development, and trusts its attorneys to manage their own time. Our people take pride in thoughtful, high-quality work — and the firm takes pride in taking care of them.

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.
