Description:
We are currently seeking a Senior Counsel to support our Land Use Real Estate Practice Group, in our Portland office. The ideal candidate will possess 6+ years of recent land use real estate experience. Candidates should also be licensed to practice in Oregon, have strong writing skills and excellent academic credentials.
Buchalter's land use attorneys built their reputation by consistently obtaining flexible and defensible land use and development entitlements in every type of development environment — including urban, rural, suburban, coastal and redevelopment. We have handled, from beginning to end, some of the most complicated projects in Oregon. We also represent the developers of smaller projects, who sometimes simply need us to intervene at certain critical points in the entitlement process.
We realize that land use entitlements serve a business goal, and understand the ways in which entitlements can affect later aspects of a development, including financing and disposition. This understanding allows us to assist clients in structuring entitlements and the timing and financing of infrastructure investments to best meet their underlying business strategies. Moreover, when development by others has the potential to harm our clients' interests, we have the expertise to intervene to prevent or eliminate that harm.
Pay Scale: The reasonably expected pay scale for this position is $225-255k, with bonus potential of up to $106,000. This is an employer estimate and the salary offered within that range, and the potential for bonus and bonus amount, will depend on candidate's years of practice and experience and performance.
Buchalter was founded based on principles of inclusivity. Our firm's commitment to reflecting and enhancing the rich diversity of the clients and communities we serve is more than eight decades strong. Buchalter's diversity of attorneys and staff provides clients with a greater breadth of creative talent and alternative approaches, and enriches our firm's collaborative, entrepreneurial and collegial environment, benefiting all. We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer. In recruiting, we welcome the unique contributions that all candidates can bring in terms of their education, opinions, culture, ethnicity, race, sex, gender identity and expression, nation of origin, age, languages spoken, veteran's status, color, religion, disability, sexual orientation and beliefs.
