Direct transaction execution by coordinating due diligence, managing timelines, and serving as a key point of contact for clients and opposing counsel.

Provide counsel on business entity formation, organizational structure, governance matters, capitalization, and ongoing corporate maintenance.

Support deal strategy by identifying legal and commercial issues, recommending practical solutions, and helping structure transactions effectively.

Work collaboratively with lawyers across complementary practice areas such as tax, finance, employment, and dispute resolution when matters require broader legal input.

Supervise entry-level team members and paralegals during active matters, offering guidance, assigning work, and reviewing deliverables for quality and accuracy.

Build and maintain strong client relationships through responsive communication, reliable execution, and thoughtful legal advice tailored to business objectives. Requirements - Juris Doctor from an accredited law school.

At least 5 years of law firm experience focused on corporate transactions, with senior-level capability in mergers and acquisitions work.

Demonstrated strength in drafting and negotiating principal transaction documents with limited supervision.

Solid understanding of corporate law, governance frameworks, and common business entity structures.

Ability to manage multiple active matters in a deadline-driven environment while maintaining strong attention to detail.

Excellent written and verbal communication skills, along with strong analytical and organizational abilities.

Proven ability to work directly with clients and collaborate effectively with internal and external stakeholders.
