In-House Counsel

New York, NY

Our client, a growing New York City real estate owner, operator, and management company, is seeking an Associate Counsel to join its team. This is a hands-on role for an attorney with 2–5 years of real estate experience who understands the realities of representing landlords and wants to work closely with the business rather than practice from the sidelines.

The Associate Counsel will advise on a range of real estate and transactional matters, partner closely with the leasing and property management teams, and represent ownership in landlord-tenant matters, including Housing Court proceedings.

The right person is practical, responsive and solutions-oriented — someone who knows the law but also knows how to get a deal done, resolve an issue and keep things moving.
