Key Responsibilities:
  • Discovery Projects: Manage all aspects of discovery, including drafting and responding to requests for production, interrogatories, and admissions; coordinating large-scale document reviews and productions; and preparing protective orders to safeguard client information.
  • Motion-Related Work: Conduct thorough legal research, draft and file both routine and complex motions, including motions for summary judgment, motions to dismiss, and motions in limine. Assist with the preparation of briefs, responses, and supporting documents for high-stakes commercial real estate finance litigation.
  • Litigation Strategy & Case Management: Work closely with partners to develop litigation strategies, manage case timelines, and prepare for hearings and trials. Attend and assist with depositions, court conferences, and client meetings.
  • Transactional Work: Assist with commercial real estate finance transactions, including negotiating, drafting, and reviewing loan documents, term sheets, and other related agreements. Work on loan origination, securitization, and refinancing of commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS). Ensure compliance with closing checklists, lender requirements, and post-closing obligations.
  • Bankruptcy Litigation Support: Provide additional support for cases involving bankruptcy proceedings, including adversary proceedings, restructuring matters, and negotiations with creditors.
  • Client Communication: Regularly update clients on case developments, prepare status reports, and participate in client strategy meetings to ensure their interests are protected throughout both litigation and transactional processes.
Qualifications:
  • Experience: 2-7 years in commercial real estate finance litigation and transactional work, or related fields.

  • Additional Benefits: Includes discretionary bonuses, incentive packages, and firm-sponsored benefit programs.
Benefits:
  • Associate-to-Partner Ratio: Low associate-to-partner ratio ensures direct mentorship and learning opportunities. Associates will gain hands-on experience running matters from start to finish, both in litigation and transactional work.
  • Quality of Life: Recognized as a quality-of-life firm while also being part of the Am Law 100.
  • Associate Engagement: The firm values associate feedback and hosts quarterly meetings to discuss ways to improve the work environment and professional development.
  • Hybrid Work Schedule: Enjoy a flexible hybrid working model, with 3 days in the office and 2 days remote each week.
About the Firm:
  • Named a "highly recommended firm" by BTI, reflecting its strong reputation for client service.
  • Ranked among firms that serve Fortune 1000 and large private clients, with a solid focus on delivering excellent legal solutions.
  • Repeatedly ranked as one of the Best Law Firms for Women by Seramount (formerly Working Mother Media) for its policies and business development initiatives that retain and advance women in the firm.
  • Earned a top rating for LGBTQ+ Equality from the Human Rights Campaign Foundation's Corporate Equality Index, underscoring its commitment to diversity and inclusion.

This is an exceptional opportunity for a motivated attorney interested in both commercial real estate finance litigation and transactional work to join a supportive, dynamic team with a strong commitment to work-life balance, professional development, and top-tier client service.
