Do complex commercial real estate deals close cleaner when you're on them?

We are seeking a Senior Associate to join our team, and we're being deliberate about it. This is not a "help us keep up with volume" hire. This is the firm's number two - the attorney who takes ownership of the most complex matters, mentors the team, and functions as a true extension of the Owner & Managing Attorney. If that sounds like a role you can grow into and own, keep reading.

Applications that do not follow instructions will not be considered, not because we're being difficult, but because attention to detail and the ability to follow a client's instructions are non-negotiable in this role.

  • Describe the three most important qualities a Senior Associate must bring to a boutique real estate transactional firm, and why.
  • Explain why this role appeals to you specifically.
