Attorney - Real Estate Litigation - Bethesda, MD - $220k

Location: Bethesda, MD, remote outside court and client commitments, with matters in Maryland, Virginia, and D.C. Why this firm stands out: Real ownership: You’ll manage your own docket and work directly with clients and partners. This isn’t a document review role. Time for life outside work: The 1,600-hour target is well below the market. Vacations actually get taken, and weekend work is the exception. Flexibility that works for litigators: Working from home is encouraged, so you’re not tied to a desk when you’re not needed in court. Room to grow: The firm promotes from within and offers a clear path forward, with direct partner mentoring as the practice expands. A respected, collegial team: More than half of the firm’s attorneys were recognized in the 2027 editions of Best Lawyers or Ones to Watch, and the culture has no room for sharp elbows.

What you’ll do: Litigate commercial and real property disputes, including title, easement, landlord-tenant, and sales contract matters. Handle cases in Maryland, Virginia, and D.C. state and federal courts, from pleadings through trial. Draft and argue motions, briefs, and legal memoranda. Take and defend depositions, and take part in ADR and settlement negotiations. Advise clients directly and take on trial responsibilities suited to your experience.

What you’ll need: A JD and active bar admission in Maryland, Virginia, or D.C.
