Attorneys
Who you are
When someone dumps a thousand-piece jig-saw puzzle on the table, you crack your knuckles and tell everyone to stand back while you get to work. You love being in the weeds of every detail and turning intricate problems into seamless solutions. And it just so happens that you’ve been admitted to practice law and want to join a firm that values collaborative work and innovative thinking.
What you’ll do
From day one at Stein Law associates are expected to speak up, receive feedback, and contribute to our client’s success. You will conduct due diligence reviews for clients engaged in mergers and acquisitions, identify legal and business risks, and provide strategic advice to clients. You will also assist in structuring and negotiating mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures, and other corporate transactions.
Professional Staff
Who you are
When a friend needs to color coordinate their closet or plan a party, they call you. If a picture is off-center you won’t just point it out, you straighten it yourself. You’re type A without being neurotic and you say what needs to be said without being rude. You don’t demand the spotlight, but you do demand respect with undeniable work ethic and clear results.
What you’ll do
Without you nothing would get done on time. With a delightful, professional manner you’ll direct incoming calls to the right people, distribute mail and deliveries to the correct offices, and assist attorneys with the documentation process. You’ll contribute to and support our work by handling various tasks and meeting competing deadlines with poise and a solutions-oriented mindset.
