About this position

Manage case files and deadlines within firm task-management systems while communicating professionally with clients, escrow officers, and advisors by phone, video, and email.
Qualifications:
Active membership in good standing with the State Bar of California.
2–5 years of transactional business, corporate, and/or real estate experience, including contract drafting, negotiations, and deal closings.
Working familiarity with federal and California tax considerations for entity structuring and real estate transfers, Section 1031 exchanges, and CA Prop 19. (Estate planning or business litigation experience is a plus.)
Detail-oriented, receptive to mentorship, and polished in direct client interactions, with the drive to grow into a client-facing lead role.
