Job Description

Commercial Real Estate Associate Sophisticated Transactions | High Growth Boutique | Real Origination Opportunity Chicago (Remote) Up to $200K Base + Bonus

I'm working closely with a rapidly growing Chicago firm that is quietly becoming one of the most exciting platforms in the market for attorneys looking to combine high-quality work, strong earning potential, and genuine career progression.

Sophisticated commercial real estate transactions
A firm where business development is genuinely rewarded
A collaborative environment with no internal politics or silos

Why This Firm Stands Out

Serious Growth — Not Just Talk

The firm has doubled in size and office space in recent years
Continued expansion across corporate, real estate, and niche sectors
Strong internal referrals = immediate cross-selling opportunities

Collaborative, "Givers Gain" Culture
No silos — attorneys actively share work and clients
Leadership is hands-off but highly supportive
Remote model tailored to individuals (not one-size-fits-all)

A genuinely adult environment where you're trusted to perform.

High-Quality, Sophisticated Client Base

Work with

Developers
