If you either are, or are planning to be, an exceptional attorney, your place is in our firm!
Did you become an attorney because you were passionate about helping people ... or maybe because your mother gave you the choice of either being a doctor or a lawyer and you didn't like the icky stuff? Either way, you should enjoy and take pride in what you do! Upon joining our firm you will do both by assisting our clients as they go through the process of buying and selling their homes and other real estate. With a culture and commitment to our people unlike any other in the legal marketplace, at a time when other firms are cutting back and laying people off, we have more business than we can handle and, thus, are able to present a rare and unique employment opportunity to the right attorney who possesses excellent analytical and communication skills coupled with a pentient for problem solving on the fly and a desire to help people acquire their forever home ... a place where they can raise and care for their families, or a commercial property where they can house their businesses, or land/investment property to secure their futures.
The ideal candidate will have some experience in real estate and contract law (don't worry, whatever your level of experience we'll make you better), and a willingness to become an invaluable resource to our Realtor and Lender clients who work so dilligently to help make the American Dream come true for their customers and clients.
