Cohen Seglias laid a foundation of legal excellence in the construction industry more than 35 years ago, an area where we remain preeminent. By being responsive and conscientious business partners, our footprint and capabilities have grown alongside our clients’ needs—becoming extensions of their teams. We provide our clients with a full range of legal services, with 20+ disciplines, to clients across nine offices. The firm and our attorneys are consistently recognized as top leaders in legal rankings such as Chambers USA, Legal 500, Law 360, and Best Lawyers.

Culture

As a mid-sized firm, we offer attorneys a collegial, collaborative and people-friendly working environment, while also providing interesting and sophisticated legal work. We help our attorneys build their skill sets and practices through an open-door, professional environment that encourages hands-on experience.

Cohen Seglias is a growing and dynamic law firm committed to the growth and well-being of our employees. This commitment is demonstrated through a range of initiatives, including a mentoring program, ongoing training and development, pro bono work, regular office events, parental leave, Habitat for Humanity Build Days, and more.

Position Summary

Cohen Seglias has an opening for a Business Transaction attorney in our Philadelphia, Wilmington, or Newark offices. Candidates must be licensed in Pennsylvania, Delaware or New Jersey, and preferably at least one other jurisdiction. Ideally, candidates will have some level of portable business, but it is not a requirement. Our commercial real estate practice serves as developers’ counsel in some of the region’s most notable transactions, representing developers and owners in the full life cycle of the asset, including acquisition, financing, structuring joint ventures, construction, leasing, and eventually, disposition. Candidates must have 10 plus years of experience in transaction work, including corporate governance, acquisition and sale of real estate, M&A, and tax. An LLM in tax or experience in commercial litigation is a plus.

We offer an innovative and entrepreneurial environment and are committed to our lateral partners’ long-term success by providing the support necessary for growing and transferring successful practices. Many of our attorneys hold leadership positions in many local, regional, and national industry organizations and serve as counsel to a significant number of associations. This is an excellent opportunity for sole proprietors and/or small groups to be part of a full-service, national platform. We provide our partners with an innovative and entrepreneurial environment.
