Description
ABOUT US
Levacy Legal is a high-growth, modern Real Estate and Business Law Firm built on three
non-negotiable pillars: Being Responsive, Deal-Friendly and Trustworthy. We represent
investors, lenders, developers, and business owners. We do not want an attorney who kills deals
over minor ego points; we need a pragmatic attorney who is strategic and finds creative ways to
get the deal across the finish line while mitigating our client's risk. We operate with extreme
urgency, including a strict 1-business-day response rule for all clients. DO NOT apply if you
don’t want to check your emails after 5 pm. DO NOT apply if you can't handle a fast-paced work
environment. PLEASE APPLY if you are a hungry, outside-the-box deal-maker who wants to
close deals with a growing and exciting team.
THE ROLE
You will step in on Day 1 to take over the front-to-end execution of complex commercial real
estate transactions. Your responsibilities include:
- Running deals completely autonomously from negotiating the LOI and Contract to the
closing table. - Structuring, negotiating and drafting Commercial Loan Documents, Purchase & Sale
Agreements, Commercial Leases, Operating Agreements, JV Agreements, Demand
Letters, etc. - Overseeing title matters, curing sophisticated title defects, and ensuring flawless closing
execution. - Acting as a high-level strategic advisor to key real estate players (lenders, developers,
investors, brokers, etc.) - Coordinate efficiently with title companies, lenders, brokers, opposing counsel, clients,
and internal team members. - Keep deals moving with clear communication, practical drafting, and a strong command
of transaction timelines.
THE STANDARDS
- You have at least 5 years of heavy transactional real estate experience in Florida.
- You respond to clients within 24 business hours.
- You thrive on keeping all parties aligned and moving fast, and you’re not afraid to take
control of the situation when needed. - You are a creative, outside-the-box thinker. When there’s roadblock, you find a legal,
structured workaround to save the deal. - You are tech-savvy and completely comfortable operating in a virtual, cloud-first,
paperless environment. - A book of business is preferred, but not strictly required if you have the operational
capacity and experience to handle our current workload.
WHY JOIN US?
- We are the law firm of the future. We are fully virtual, extremely efficient, we have the
dream team, we lean into technology, we have a very positive firm culture, and we
genuinely care about our employees. - Strong Compensation Package. We offer a competitive base salary to manage firm
overflow, paired with an aggressive origination split for the deals you bring in. - Zero Bureaucracy. Unlike a traditional law firm, which is slow and full of office politics,
there is no red tape here. We are very practical and forward-thinking. If you need a
resource to close a deal, you get it. If you have a creative legal strategy to save a
transaction, we execute it. - Exciting Deal Flow. You will be on the forefront of some of the most exciting deals
shaping Tampa Bay.
