About the Role

Milan Laser is seeking an Assistant General Counsel to join its growing in-house Legal team. This role is well suited to an attorney with 1–3 years of experience who is looking to build a broad, hands-on practice inside a fast-moving, multi-state healthcare and consumer services company. The ACG will work closely with the General Counsel and cross-functional business partners on contract review and drafting, professional liability and employment practices litigation management, and corporate entity management across Milan's national footprint.

This is an excellent opportunity for an attorney who wants meaningful ownership early in their in-house career, exposure to a wide range of legal disciplines, and a direct line of sight to how legal work supports business decisions.

Entity Management

• Maintain good standing and compliance for Milan's corporate entities across all states of operation, including registered agent management, annual reports, and franchise tax filings
• Prepare and maintain corporate governance records, including organizational documents, resolutions, and minute books
• Support entity formation, qualification, dissolution, and restructuring as the business expands into new markets

• Strong contract drafting and negotiation skills
• Solid understanding of civil litigation processes, including familiarity with discovery, claims handling, or employment-related disputes
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to translate legal concepts for non-legal audiences
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail, with the ability to manage multiple matters and deadlines simultaneously
• Sound judgment, discretion, and a high level of integrity when handling sensitive and confidential information

• Prior experience with multi-state corporate entity management or compliance
• Exposure to healthcare, franchise, retail, or multi-unit business models
