Job Description

A leading Texas-based law firm is seeking a highly organized and detail-oriented Transactions Specialist for its Dallas office, supporting the firm's Real Estate Development and Investments Practice Group. This position plays a vital role in the closing process for complex real estate transactions, handling document compilation, dating and finalization, uploads, and closing binder management, as well as preparing closing binder indexes.

The role also covers post-closing matters, including custodial packages, compiling closing binders, mailings, and following up on outstanding title and closing documents. The Transactions Specialist works closely with the deal team — attorneys, paralegals, and assistants — to finalize and receive all closing documents and related diligence, and assists with title document preparation, signature page preparation, loan summaries, due diligence questionnaires, and coordination of post-closing projects.

Ideal candidates will have at least two years of prior legal experience in a law firm, proficiency in MS Office (particularly Word) and Adobe Acrobat, and good working knowledge of document management systems (NetDocuments experience is a plus). Strong communication, organizational, and interpersonal skills are essential, along with the ability to manage competing deadlines and work overtime when needed.
