Advocate for landlords and property owners in a range of disputes involving lease enforcement, possession, unpaid rent, and related litigation matters.

Attend court regularly and handle appearances in district and other appropriate courts for hearings, trials, and procedural proceedings.

Prepare litigation documents such as complaints, motions, affidavits, briefs, and discovery materials with close attention to legal accuracy and deadlines.

Support case strategy by partnering with senior counsel on matter assessment, hearing preparation, and overall litigation planning.

Research statutory and case law issues and translate findings into practical guidance for clients facing landlord-tenant and contract-related disputes.

Manage matters involving breach of lease, guaranty enforcement, wrongful detainer claims, post-judgment activity, and other contested proceedings.

Assist with bankruptcy-related creditor matters, including stay relief requests and court hearings when applicable.

Communicate professionally with clients, opposing counsel, court personnel, and other stakeholders throughout the life of each case.

Contribute to continuity of client matters during the senior partner's transition toward retirement while maintaining consistent service and representation.

Stay informed on legal developments affecting landlord-tenant litigation and incorporate changes into daily practice. Requirements

Active admission to the Maryland Bar is required.

At least 1 year of litigation experience in a law firm or similar legal practice environment.

Background in landlord-tenant law is strongly preferred, particularly in commercial matters.

Demonstrated ability to conduct legal research and apply findings to case strategy and client advice.

Confidence in appearing in court on a frequent basis and advocating effectively in contested proceedings.

Strong drafting skills for pleadings, motions, briefs, and discovery documents.

Excellent organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple active matters in a deadline-driven practice.

Our client offers exceptional benefits, including highly discounted medical coverage, annual reviews, bonus opportunity, retirement savings, profit sharing and more!
