## Description

About the company

Our client is a law firm.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Take on a mix of property-related transactional matters within a law firm practice, from document preparation through closing. You will run files with partner guidance and work closely with commercially minded clients. The position comes with a route toward partnership.

What you'll do

\- Prepare and negotiate purchase agreements, leases and loan documentation.

\- Steer closings with limited day-to-day supervision.

\- Advise clients directly and propose workable solutions instead of simply raising issues.

\- Examine title and survey materials for complex property deals.

\- Assist with development-related approvals, agreements and incentive arrangements.

\- Partner with senior lawyers on high-profile financings, tax-deferred exchanges and mixed-use projects.

## Requirements

What we're looking for

\- Recent, uninterrupted law firm experience handling commercial property transactions, at least 3 years.

\- Capacity to manage a matter independently under partner review, without needing step-by-step direction.

\- A steady, consistent career history.

\- Excellent written work and close attention to detail, reflected in a clean, error-free resume.

\- A pragmatic, client-focused mindset geared toward closing deals.

\- Background advising on the development side of property projects.

\- Familiarity with local government approvals and incentive programs for real estate projects.

\- Not currently based in New York, unless joining together with partners.

\- Willingness to be in the office 3 to 4 days per week.

## Benefits

Compensation and benefits

\- Base salary: USD 175,000 to 250,000 per year

Location and work model

\- Roseland, NJ, United States (preferred) or Woodbridge, NJ, United States

\- Hybrid, 3 to 4 days per week in the office

\- Full-time
