5-10 year Commercial Real Estate Attorney – Houston

 

This is a rare opportunity to join a well-established commercial real estate practice with consistent deal flow, real responsibility, and a clear path for growth—without the pressure to bring a book of business.

 

We’re partnering with a highly regarded Houston-based law firm that serves as a strategic partner to mid-size businesses and Fortune 500 companies, both nationally and internationally, and has been recognized among the Legal 500 Houston Elite and Chambers.

 

The commercial real estate group is collaborative, entrepreneurial, and genuinely enjoyable to work with. We know this team well—whoever steps into the role will have direct access to partners, meaningful client interaction, and the opportunity to take ownership of sophisticated transactions.

There is no expectation to bring a book of business. The practice is driven by very busy shareholders who actively disperse work. For attorneys who have or want to build a book, there is a clear and attainable path to a shareholder.

 

Work includes: All facets of real estate development representing land owners, developers, investors, private businesses, major public institutions and municipalities in their joint ventures, development and property management agreements, acquisitions and dispositions, office, retail and industrial leasing as well as financing for land development and other sophisticated real estate legal matters.

 

This is a team that values quality work, mutual respect, and long-term relationships—with clients and with each other.

 

They offer an excellent pay scale and a clear path to Shareholder.
