  • Maintain client relationships;
  • Act as an Assistant City Attorney for Florida municipalities, counseling decision-makers on the Florida Constitution, important Florida statutes, such as the Sunshine Law, and applicable City codes;
  • Draft purchase and sale agreements for high-end residential properties and commercial properties ranging from $1m-50m in sale price;
  • Advise large publicly-traded companies on the development of their real estate portfolios in Florida; and
  • Negotiate and draft complex loan documents, partnership agreements, and real estate investment documents, among other things.

  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Payment for Bar Admissions in State and Federal Courts
  • 3 Weeks Paid Vacation, 2 Weeks Paid Sick Leave
  • Paid Continuing Legal Education in Practice Areas
