You went into real estate law because you wanted to see the deals you work on from the street.

Instead you're buried in title review. Lease abstracts. Due diligence checklists that no one reads.

Maybe you've touched a few closings. Maybe you've drafted ancillary docs on a financing. But you're not yet the one negotiating the purchase and sale agreement or structuring the joint venture.

You're ready to work on deals that reshape a skyline — not just process the paperwork behind them.

A Chambers-ranked AmLaw firm with one of the premier real estate practices in DC is hiring a junior associate. This team represents major developers, institutional owners, and users on transactions across the Washington metro region. The work includes:

• Large-scale commercial, residential, and mixed-use development
• Equity and debt financing for high-profile projects
• Acquisitions and dispositions
• Complex leasing for office, hotel, and retail

This is a 45+ lawyer real estate practice. You won't be a generalist who occasionally touches a real estate deal — you'll be embedded in a team with the volume and sophistication to build real expertise fast.

What you bring:

• 1-3 years of real estate transactional experience (development, financing, or leasing)
• DC bar required or obtainable

What you get:

• Exposure to deals that are literally building DC — the kind of projects you'll drive past and point to
• A deep bench of senior associates and partners invested in developing junior talent
• $$$ top of market comp + bonus
