Senior M&A & Corporate Transactions Partner - Portable Book of Business Required

Public & Private Companies • Capital Markets • Strategic Transactions

New York | Hybrid & Remote Options

We are representing a fast-growing, entrepreneurial corporate law firm actively building a national M&A and capital-markets platform. The firm advises public and private companies, founders, private equity funds, and international issuers on complex transactions that sit at the intersection of M&A, securities, financing, and strategic growth.

This is an opportunity for a senior deal lawyer who wants to run transactions, own client relationships, and operate like a partner — without BigLaw bureaucracy.

The Practice

The firm represents clients through the full lifecycle of corporate transactions, from early-stage planning through closing and post-transaction integration. Matters routinely include:

• Mergers, acquisitions, asset sales, and joint ventures
• Public company and cross-border transactions
• Reverse mergers, alternative public offerings, and PIPE financings
• U.S. exchange listings and uplistings
• Equity, debt, and convertible securities offerings
• Strategic investments, recapitalizations, and balance-sheet restructurings

The team works closely with capital providers, underwriters, funds, placement agents, and regulators to move deals from concept to close, even in volatile or complex markets.

This is not a document-processing practice — it is a deal-driven corporate platform.

What You’ll Do

You will serve as lead deal counsel on sophisticated transactions, including:

• Running M&A transactions for public and private companies
• Drafting and negotiating purchase agreements, merger agreements, and JV documents
• Advising boards and special committees on fiduciary duties and governance
• Managing securities and disclosure issues tied to financings and transactions
• Coordinating with investors, banks, regulators, and exchange listing bodies
• Guiding founders and sponsors through exits, roll-ups, and recapitalizations

You’ll work directly with clients and counterparties, not behind layers of hierarchy.

Who This Is For

This role is ideal for a senior counsel, or partner with a book of portable business who:

• Has 7–10+ years of M&A / corporate transactional experience
• Can run deals independently from term sheet through closing
• Has experience with public companies, private equity, or growth-stage issuers
• Wants real client ownership and upside rather than pure service-partner work

Securities, capital markets, or PIPE experience is a major plus but not required.

Why This Platform Is Different

This firm operates with a founder-driven, entrepreneurial model that gives lawyers:

• Direct access to capital sources and deal flow
• Creative fee structures (flat, hybrid, equity-based in select matters)
• Hands-on leadership instead of committee layers
• True ownership of client relationships
• The ability to shape and grow a practice

It is built for attorneys who want to be deal makers, not just deal paperers.

Explore Confidentially

If you are a senior M&A attorney with a book of business looking for a platform where you can run deals, build clients, and grow with the firm, we welcome a discreet conversation.

Apply to start a confidential discussion.
