Manage transactions throughout the full deal lifecycle, including structuring, due diligence, drafting, negotiation, closing, and post-closing matters
Draft, review, and negotiate purchase agreements, letters of intent, disclosure schedules, ancillary agreements, and other transaction documents
Counsel business owners, founders, executives, and investors regarding corporate transactions and day-to-day business matters
Draft and negotiate commercial agreements including service agreements, vendor agreements, consulting agreements, licensing agreements, NDAs, and other business contracts
Advise clients regarding business formations, entity structuring, corporate governance, ownership arrangements, and equity matters
Draft and review operating agreements, shareholder agreements, buy-sell agreements, resolutions, consents, and other corporate documents
Coordinate and oversee transaction due diligence and manage deal processes, documentation, and closing requirements

Requirements

JD from an accredited law school
Admission and good standing with the New York and/or New Jersey Bar
Approximately 4–8+ years of corporate, transactional, and M&A experience
Meaningful experience handling mergers and acquisitions and other business transactions
Strong drafting and negotiation skills with experience preparing and reviewing transaction documents
Experience with corporate governance, entity formation, commercial contracts, and general business matters
Ability to independently manage significant portions of transactions and work directly with clients
Strong understanding of the business considerations underlying corporate transactions
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple active matters and deadlines
Practical, solutions-oriented approach to legal counseling
Collaborative personality and ability to thrive in an entrepreneurial, growing law firm environment
Ideal Background
The strongest candidate will have developed a solid transactional foundation at a law firm with an active corporate or M&A practice and is looking for an environment offering greater client exposure, deal ownership, and responsibility.
Experience representing privately held and founder-owned businesses in lower-middle-market transactions is particularly relevant. Candidates should be comfortable working on both the technical legal aspects of transactions and the practical business issues that arise throughout a deal.
Why Us
This is an opportunity to join a growing Corporate/M&A practice where attorneys have meaningful involvement in transactions and direct access to clients. The firm's approach emphasizes sophisticated legal work without losing sight of the practical and financial realities facing business owners.
The position is well suited for an attorney who enjoys doing deals, wants meaningful ownership of their work, and values a collaborative, business-minded approach to practicing law.
