Davis Wright Tremaine LLP is seeking a part-time Washington real estate and land use attorney for engagement through the firm’s contract attorney and alternative staffing program, DWTSurge. This contract attorney position will work with the Firm’s Real Estate and Land Use practice group to support land use matters for the firm’s Washington clients. Attorneys must reside and have active bar admission in Washington.
This contract position will work independently to assist clients with real estate and land use transactional matters, including permitting, siting, and developing residential, public, and commercial projects. The selected attorney will also analyze land use compliance matters to support landowners with litigation and administrative hearings, and manage complex real estate closings.
Mid to senior level attorneys who are seeking reduced hours and more flexibility in their practice are encouraged to apply. In addition to flexibility, candidates can expect to work closely with DWT attorneys as part of a collaborative team, providing high-value legal services to DWT clients. This role is client facing and requires a high-level of commitment to excellent client service. Attorneys should be able to work independently and exercise good judgement, but should also collaborate easily with various stakeholders, other lawyers, and support staff to meet objectives within short deadlines.
This part-time contract position offers the flexibility of an anticipated 8-12 hours/week based in our Seattle, WA office. There is a possibility of additional hours of work per week depending on the candidate skill set, ability, and successful integration into the practice group. We are looking for attorneys interested in establishing a flexible, alternative-track working relationship with the Firm.
