Culture

As a mid-sized firm, we offer attorneys a collegial, collaborative and people-friendly working environment, while also providing interesting and sophisticated legal work.

Position Summary

Cohen Seglias has an opening for a Business Transaction attorney in our Philadelphia, Wilmington, or Newark offices. Candidates must be licensed in Pennsylvania, Delaware or New Jersey, and preferably at least one other jurisdiction. Ideally, candidates will have some level of portable business, but it is not a requirement. Our commercial real estate practice serves as developers’ counsel in some of the region’s most notable transactions, representing developers and owners in the full life cycle of the asset, including acquisition, financing, structuring joint ventures, construction, leasing, and eventually, disposition.

Candidates must have 10 plus years of experience in transaction work, including corporate governance, acquisition and sale of real estate, M&A, and tax. An LLM in tax or experience in commercial litigation is a plus.

We offer an innovative and entrepreneurial environment and are committed to our lateral partners’ long-term success by providing the support necessary for growing and transferring successful practices. Many of our attorneys hold leadership positions in many local, regional, and national industry organizations and serve as counsel to a significant number of associations. This is an excellent opportunity for sole proprietors and/or small groups to be part of a full-service, national platform.

We provide our partners with an innovative and entrepreneurial environment. Cohen Seglias is an equal opportunity employer.
