    Job Description

    ** About Preovolos Lewin, ALC:** Located in the heart of downtown San Diego, Preovolos Lewin, ALC is a premier full-service law firm dedicated to providing strategic, cost-effective legal solutions. We don't just draft documents; we build long-term relationships with our clients, guiding them through corporate structuring, asset protection, and complex transactions. If you are an experienced Corporate Attorney looking to step away from the grueling "Big Law" treadmill and join a collaborative, highly respected firm where your work actually impacts business owners, we want to talk to you.

    ** The Role:** We are seeking an experienced Corporate & Business Attorney to join our growing transactional practice. In this role, you will act as a trusted advisor to entrepreneurs, executives, and closely held businesses, managing their legal needs from formation to exit. Because we are a full-service firm, you will have the unique opportunity to collaborate with our Tax, Estate Planning, and Employment teams to provide comprehensive solutions for our clients.

    _ (Note to out-of-market applicants: San Diego offers an incredible quality of life. If you are currently practicing in LA, Orange County, or the Bay Area and are looking for a better work-life balance without sacrificing the quality of your practice, we highly encourage you to apply.)_

    ** What You Will Do:**

    • ** Corporate Governance & Formation:** Advise clients on entity selection (LLC, S-Corp, C-Corp, Partnerships) and draft operating agreements, bylaws, and shareholder agreements.
    • ** Mergers & Acquisitions:** Structure, draft, and negotiate complex M&A transactions, asset purchases, and stock purchase agreements.
    • ** Commercial Contracts:** Draft, review, and negotiate a wide variety of business agreements, including vendor contracts, licensing agreements, and executive compensation plans.
    • ** Business Counseling:** Act as outside general counsel for clients, advising on day-to-day operational compliance, risk management, and asset protection strategies.

    ** What We Are Looking For (Requirements):**

    • ** Licensing:** Must possess an active, in-good-standing license to practice law in the State of California (California State Bar). This is non-negotiable.
    • ** Experience:** 4 to 8+ years of dedicated experience in Corporate Law, Business Transactions, or M&A.
    • ** Drafting Expertise:** Exceptional contract drafting and negotiation skills with a meticulous eye for detail.
    • ** Client-Facing Confidence:** The ability to communicate complex legal and tax concepts to business owners in a practical, easy-to-understand manner.
    • ** Entrepreneurial Mindset:** A self-starter who thrives in a collaborative, cross-functional firm environment.

    ** What We Offer:**

    • Highly competitive base salary commensurate with experience.
    • A realistic, achievable billable hour requirement that respects your life outside the office.
    • Comprehensive benefits package (Health, Dental, Vision, Retirement).
    • The opportunity to practice high-level corporate law while enjoying the unmatched lifestyle of San Diego.
