Mid-Level Real Estate Associate

Patterson Belknap is seeking a fourth to seventh year associate to join its Real Estate Department.

The ideal candidate will have sophisticated commercial real estate experience acquired while practicing at a New York City law firm with a focus on "dirt law" (leasing, conveyancing, design/construction/development, as opposed to a capital markets or finance background).  We are open to considering a reduced hours schedule for the right candidate. 

Qualifications:

• Desire to work in a small, tight-knit group that offers broad training and gives early responsibility to junior attorneys and offers the opportunity to work directly with partners and other senior attorneys from the outset.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills.

• Strong legal research and analytical skills.

• Careful attention to details.

• Excellent time management and organizational skills.

• A flexible problem solver, self-directed, client service oriented, and collaborative.

• Strong academic credentials.

• Must be admitted and in good standing to practice in New York.

​

The expected salary range for this position is $310,000 - $405,000 per year, pro-rated for a reduced hours schedule, if applicable, plus competitive benefits and bonus eligibility.  Associate base compensation at Patterson Belknap Webb & Tyler is typically lock-step, based on experience.  

PBWT is an equal opportunity employer.
