Salary range: $300K - $400KAbout this roleWe are looking for a Real Estate Transactions Partner with 8+ years of experience to join a well-established 45-attorney firm handling sophisticated commercial real estate transactions for high-end clients - including those who previously used AmLaw 100 firms like Gibson Dunn. This is a non-equity partner role with a clear, transparent path to equity (where partners earn seven figures) at a firm that values breadth, substance, and entrepreneurial drive.

- Drafting and negotiating purchase/sale agreements, commercial leases, loan documents, joint venture agreements, and development agreements
- Managing transactions from inception through closing - including due diligence, title review, entity structuring, and coordinating with lenders and counterparties
- Building and developing client relationships with the goal of growing your own book of business over time
- Collaborating in-office with partners and associates to mentor junior attorneys and contribute to firm culture
Key Requirements- Broad real estate transactional experience - not just one niche (must have touched acquisitions, financing, leasing, and development)
- Sophistication of matters handled - high-value commercial real estate deals, not just residential or small transactions
- Willing to work in-office 4 days per week at the firm's Los Angeles location
- Active California bar membership with impeccable writing (typos or grammatical errors are fatal)
- Substantive depth - must be able to answer detailed questions about your actual work product without deflecting
