Job Details

Salary: $150,000 - $225,000 per year

Our client is seeking a senior-level corporate attorney to join its established transactional practice. This role is designed for an attorney with substantial experience handling complex business transactions who is looking to take on a more active role in deal execution, client interaction, and overall matter management.

This opportunity is particularly well-suited for someone who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment, is comfortable juggling multiple sophisticated matters, and values mentorship and long-term professional development.

A bit about us

Our client is a mid-sized commercial law firm that provides comprehensive legal services to businesses and individuals across a wide range of industries, including the private, public, and nonprofit sectors. With offices throughout the Mid-Atlantic region and an additional presence in South Florida, the firm is well positioned to serve clients in key economic centers.

The firm represents clients at every stage of growth—from startups and entrepreneurs to established companies and large national organizations. Since its origins as a small, specialized practice, it has grown into a respected alternative to larger national firms, offering sophisticated legal services with a more tailored approach.

Its client base spans industries such as technology, manufacturing, real estate, and healthcare, among others. The firm emphasizes practical, business-focused solutions and adapts its services to meet evolving client needs and market conditions.

Known for its collaborative culture and strong professional reputation, the firm attracts attorneys with diverse backgrounds and experience across a variety of practice settings. Its lawyers are committed to delivering strategic, results‑driven counsel while serving as trusted advisors to their clients.

Why join us?

• Competitive salary commensurate with experience
