About Leon Financial

Leon Financial is the real estate credit origination and servicing platform of Leon Capital Group, a Dallas-based privately-owned holding company overseeing $10 billion in private capital. Leon Financial originates bridge loans, construction loans, preferred equity, mezzanine debt, and related credit structures across commercial real estate. We are building a platform designed to scale to $500+ million in annual originations — with the infrastructure, governance, and talent to support institutional capital. This is a ground-floor opportunity on a platform backed by a family office with 15+ years of real estate investment discipline across 460+ transactions.

Position Overview

We are hiring a Transaction Counsel to own the closing process across our credit platform. This person will manage multiple live transactions simultaneously, draft and negotiate loan and joint-venture credit documents, and build the transaction management infrastructure as we scale. The right candidate is a transactional real estate attorney who has spent meaningful time on the lender side — someone who can close a construction loan, negotiate a preferred equity agreement, and manage a bridge loan closing without relying heavily on outside counsel.

This is not a staff counsel role. You will be the single point of accountability for transaction execution quality across all deal types. You will work directly with our deal principals, our Senior Director of Finance, and our Investment Committee. You will inherit a library of form documents and improve upon them. You will close deals while building the systems that let us close more.

Key Responsibilities:

• Manage the full closing process across bridge loans, construction loans, preferred equity, and mezzanine debt transactions — from term sheet execution through funding.
• Draft, negotiate, and finalize loan agreements, guaranties, LLC operating agreements, construction disbursement agreements, and related credit documentation.
• Partner with deal principals on multifamily and industrial credit transactions, serving as their closing counterpart across asset classes.
• Build and maintain the firm’s transaction document library — standardize templates, codify deviation protocols, and reduce outside counsel dependency over time.
• Contribute to deal structuring, construction loan governance, and documentation standards.
• Coordinate outside counsel on transactions requiring specialized expertise, managing for efficiency and cost discipline.
• Provide counsel on AI-related matters and be a power user of AI tools — this is an expectation for every member of our team.

Qualifications:

• JD from an accredited law school; active bar membership required.
• 7+ years of direct experience closing real estate credit transactions, with meaningful time on the lender or capital provider side.
• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple closings simultaneously across different deal types.
• Construction loan closing experience — including draw documentation, lien waiver mechanics, and disbursement agreements — is strongly valued.
• Comfortable operating in a lean, founder-stage environment where you build systems as you execute.
• Commercially oriented — you close deals; you do not create a process for the sake of process.
• Fund formation exposure (PPMs, LPAs, subscription documents) is a differentiator but not required.
• Dallas-based or willing to relocate; select remote candidates will be considered.

About This Team and Role

Join Verra Mobility as a Senior Counsel, and you will join a dynamic legal team that operates in true partnership with our innovative business teams. This role will report to the Associate General Counsel and be responsible for providing broad-based legal support. Your work will span a wide range of legal subject matters, and each week will bring fresh and varied challenges. We are a legal team that celebrates our responsibility for driving growth and success for our company. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, and in a business focused on profitable, rapid, and sustainable growth, then this opportunity is for you.

What You’ll Do

The successful individual will need to be able to work independently and will lead a high volume of legal assignments and complex, cross-functional legal initiatives, including contracting, legal research, compliance matters, disputes, M&A, employment matters, litigation, corporate governance, and special projects. The role is ideal for someone that loves being a lawyer but also enjoys business, appreciates process orientation, makes risk-adjusted decisions, loves winning, and accepts shared accountability for the metrics of commercial success.

In addition, the responsibilities for this position include, but are not limited to, the following:

• While collaborating directly with our business teams you will be:
• Drafting, negotiating, and managing customer contracts, commercial partnership contracts, licensing agreements, channel marketing agreements, and complex vendor agreements;
• Advising on and optimizing legal risk, product, commercial and compliance considerations, while suggesting creative, business-supportive solutions;
• Operating as first-level review of privacy policies, terms, user agreements, and ensuring they are aligned with product strategy and anticipated use cases;
• Issue-spotting potential legal challenges, and running them to ground; and
• Proactively identifying and anticipating emerging legal and regulatory issues that might impact our products and services.
• Additional duties include:
• Creating and updating template agreements, and supporting the continuous improvement of contractual standards in response to changes in law and the organization’s business needs;
• Spotting potential privacy issues and, working with our Data Privacy team and counsel, provide business-oriented resolutions;
• Collaborating with IP counsel on patent and other IP related matters;
• Assisting with mergers, acquisitions, and other strategic transactions including due diligence, transaction documentation, and post-closing integration support;
• Assisting with litigation matters, and other regulatory or stakeholder disputes;
• Assisting with employment matters, as needed;
• Managing outside counsel, as required;
• Developing strong collaborative working relationships with colleagues, and business stakeholders;
• Supporting the Associate General Counsel with day-to-day legal management and workflow;
• Supporting other legal team leaders with special projects, as needed;
• Handling fire drills.

What we're looking for

• JD from an accredited law school and in good standing with a state bar association;
• 5+ years as a practicing attorney with an emphasis on contracting matters and/or prior experience as a product counsel at a technology-focused organization;
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to communicate complex legal issues in a simple, understandable manner with colleagues of varying legal knowledge across the company;
• Ability to work well in time-sensitive situations and fast-paced environments; and effectively manage multiple projects or matters with competing deadlines;
• Strong presentation and negotiation skills;
• Solid business instinct and judgment;
• High degree of organization and efficiency with demonstrated attention to detail;
• Strong collaborative skills, and proven team orientation;
• Personal integrity, sound judgment, and strong ethics in business and personal conduct;
• Enthusiasm, energy, and motivation to contribute and thrive in a growing company where roles continually adapt as the company evolves; and
• Adaptable and comfortable with change, organizational evolution, and ambiguity.

Nice to have!

• Experience at a law firm servicing business clients
• Experience as an in-house attorney
