Full Job Description
Offit Kurman is seeking a New York-barred corporate attorney to join our New York office. This role is ideal for an attorney who enjoys being a trusted day-to-day advisor to businesses rather than focusing exclusively on large, traditional M&A transactions.

The work includes reviewing, drafting, and negotiating commercial contracts, advising on corporate governance matters, handling general corporate transactions, assisting with entity formation and structuring, supporting M&A deals, and serving as outside general counsel to owner-managed and growth-oriented businesses. We are looking for an attorney with approximately five or more years of corporate experience, though candidates with additional experience are welcome. Admission to the New York Bar is required. Strong drafting skills, sound judgment, and the ability to work directly with clients are essential.

Candidates should be admitted to the New York Bar and have approximately five or more years of corporate experience

Compensation will range from $175,000 to $250,000. Bonuses are available. Offit Kurman offers a collaborative, entrepreneurial platform with sophisticated clients and opportunities for long-term professional growth.

*Agencies should reach out to Leigh Novack before sending blind candidates.
