Senior Commercial Real Estate Paralegal

About the Role

Join a busy commercial real estate practice at an established New Jersey law firm. You will work closely with practice leaders on transactions for developers, property owners, investors, and lenders, helping deals move smoothly from due diligence through closing and post-closing.

What You'll Do

• Order and review title commitments and surveys, and help resolve title objections.

• Prepare closing documents, maintain checklists, and coordinate funds flow for commercial acquisitions, sales, leasing, and financing transactions.

• Manage due diligence, entity documents, and estoppels across multiple active matters.

• Coordinate post-closing recordings, filings, and follow-up items.

• Communicate with clients, opposing counsel, and title companies with minimal partner oversight.

What We're Looking For

• Five or more years of recent, continuous commercial real estate paralegal experience at a law firm, with experience in New Jersey transactions.

• Hands-on experience with title, surveys, and commercial closings, including independently managing matters through post-closing.

• Broad real estate experience beyond residential closings, ideally including both transactional real estate and land use work.

• Strong attention to detail, polished written work, and a stable employment history.

• Eligibility to work in the United States without visa sponsorship.

Base salary is $125,000 to $155,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is not available.
