Paralegal – Corporate Transactions

The Role:

You will play a central role in deal execution for a fast-moving corporate practice. This is not a passive support role. You will be expected to take ownership of tasks, anticipate needs, and maintain a high level of precision across all work product.

Responsibilities:

• Managing corporate formations and filings across U.S. jurisdictions

• Organizing and maintaining virtual data rooms (structure, naming, version control)

• Preparing closing binders and post-closing deliverables

• Drafting and circulating signature packets and coordinating execution

• Tracking deal timelines, checklists, and outstanding items across multiple parties

• Assisting with ancillary documents (officer certificates, secretary certificates, resolutions)

• Supporting legal research and general administrative needs such as calendaring and following up with internal and external contacts on outstanding tasks

• Attention to detail is critical. Small errors in this role have real legal and business consequences.

Requirements:

• Minimum 2 years of experience in a legal setting (law firm or in-house legal department)

• Exposure to corporate, transactional, or M&A work strongly preferred

• Strong written and spoken English (near-native level expected in professional settings)

• Ability to draft professional emails and review documents without language supervision

• Highly organized with strong attention to detail and follow-through

• Comfortable working across multiple matters simultaneously

AI Usage:

We expect you to use AI tools as part of your workflow.

However:

• You must independently verify all AI-generated outputs

• You must be able to identify and correct hallucinations, formatting errors, and incorrect legal assumptions

• You must exercise judgment. This role requires thinking, not just execution

• Over-reliance on AI without verification will not be acceptable.
