Attorney

Multiple growing full-service law firms are seeking a Senior Commercial Real Estate Attorney to join their Charlotte, North Carolina offices. These opportunities are ideal for entrepreneurial attorneys looking to expand their practice within collaborative, business-focused environments.

Several of the firms I am currently supporting operate under the Cravath compensation model, offering competitive, market-aligned salary structures.

The ideal candidate will have substantial experience handling complex commercial real estate transactions, including acquisitions, dispositions, financing, development, and leasing. These roles are well suited for attorneys who enjoy managing sophisticated matters with significant client interaction and autonomy.

• Represent clients in all aspects of commercial real estate transactions
• Draft, review, and negotiate purchase and sale agreements, financing documents, disclosure agreements, development agreements, and commercial leases
• Lead transactions from inception through closing with substantial client contact and minimal supervision
• Collaborate with internal practice groups and external stakeholders as needed

• Licensed and in good standing in North Carolina
• South Carolina admission is a plus, but not required
• 4+ years of commercial real estate experience, particularly with complex transactions
• Strong drafting, negotiation, and client communication skills
• Entrepreneurial mindset with an interest in practice development

The firms offer platforms designed to support entrepreneurial attorneys, with strong administrative infrastructure, cross-office collaboration, and opportunities for business development.

Compensation is competitive and, in certain cases, aligned with the Cravath pay system, along with performance-based incentives and comprehensive benefits.
