Why This Is a Great Opportunity

• Join a high-level commercial real estate practice doing sophisticated transactional work.

• Work remotely while still being part of a collaborative California-based team.
• Get meaningful ownership over complex acquisitions, financings, dispositions, and closings.
• Be part of a boutique platform known for high standards, strong teamwork, and excellent client service.

Location: Fully remote, with a strong preference for candidates based in Los Angeles or San Diego so they can participate in local team meetups and relationship-building. Strong candidates elsewhere in California will also be considered.

Note: Candidates must have substantial California commercial real estate transactional paralegal experience, with deep title and survey review experience in a law firm or strong real estate practice environment.
