Description

Associate Attorney (Real Estate Transactions, Probate & Estate Planning)

Location: Rio Rancho, New Mexico (Hybrid/Remote Flexibility Available)

Firm Type: Boutique, Systems-Driven, Tech-Forward

Are you a talented attorney who loves the law but hates the "chaos" of traditional law firms?

In 2025, we overhauled how we practice law. We stopped chasing clients for money, implemented bi-monthly billing, and built a world-class remote support team of 6 paralegals and assistants. The result? A profitable, streamlined firm where the attorney gets to focus on high-level strategy and client advocacy rather than administrative headaches.

We are looking for an Associate Attorney who is meticulous, tech-savvy, and ready to step into a firm that has the "engine" already running.

Responsibilities

What You'll Do:
• Focus on Strategy: Handle commercial lease drafting/reviews, real estate purchase agreements, estate planning, streamlined procedural litigation, and real estate title & estate resolution.
• Lead the Team: Review work product from our highly trained remote paralegals (deeds, estate plans, and quiet title actions).
• Leverage Tech: Use AI-driven tools to increase your efficiency and output.
• Direct Client Contact: Be the lead advisor for clients during their most critical transitions.

Qualifications

Who You Are:
• Licensed to practice law in New Mexico.
• Experienced: Ideally 2-5 years in Real Estate or Probate, but we value competence and character over a specific year count.
• Detail-Oriented: You take pride in "bulletproof" drafting. You're the person who catches the typo in the legal description that everyone else missed.
• Systems-Minded: You enjoy using technology to work smarter, not harder.
