Partner with clients, opposing counsel, local counsel, and internal stakeholders to move matters forward effectively and resolve issues during execution.

Provide legal support on mezzanine debt, second-lien arrangements, subordinated financing structures, and intercreditor matters.

Review post-closing and ongoing financing needs such as amendments, waivers, refinancing activity, and restructuring matters.

Guide entry-level legal team members and paralegals by offering direction on drafting, organization, and transaction management. Requirements - Juris Doctor from an accredited law school.

At least 3 years of law firm experience focused on finance transactions.

Demonstrated background in senior secured lending, with additional exposure to mezzanine financing strongly preferred.

Strong command of loan documentation, security and guaranty provisions, collateral arrangements, and perfection concepts.

Excellent drafting, negotiation, and issue-spotting abilities in fast-paced transactional settings.

Ability to manage multiple active matters independently while maintaining accuracy and meeting deadlines.
