Job Description

Are you a South Carolina–licensed attorney with a passion for real estate law, contract drafting, and practical problem-solving? This is a unique opportunity to step into a high-impact, non-billable role supporting professionals across the real estate industry—without the pressures of litigation or private practice hours.

Job Responsibility

  • Provide real-time legal guidance to real estate professionals on transaction issues, license law, agency, ethics, and compliance
  • Help identify trends and recurring questions to support risk‑reduction initiatives
  • Deliver clear, practical explanations—without establishing attorney-client relationships
  • Review, update, and maintain standardized real estate contracts and forms
  • Partner with internal committees and external vendors to ensure accuracy and compliance
  • Draft new language and revisions responding to legal or market changes
  • Develop and present webinars, CLE courses, and short-form educational content
  • Create engaging materials to explain legal updates and common transaction pitfalls

Requirements

  • J.D. from an accredited law school
  • Active South Carolina Bar license
  • 3+ years of legal experience (South Carolina real estate law strongly preferred)
  • Working knowledge of real estate transactions, agency law, and regulatory compliance
  • Ability to explain complex legal issues in plain English
  • Strong contract drafting and attention to detail
  • Calm, service-oriented approach in fast-paced environments
  • Highly organized, proactive, and independently motivated

What we offer

  • Competitive compensation
  • Comprehensive benefits (health, dental, vision, retirement)
  • Paid bar dues and CLE support
  • Predictable hours and excellent work-life balance
