Real Estate Litigation Associate – Rent Regulation Focus
New York City
The Opportunity
A premier New York City real estate law platform is adding an Associate Attorney to its administrative law and rent regulation practice.
This role is designed for an attorney with real DHCR and rent stabilization experience who wants substantive responsibility, litigation exposure beyond agency proceedings, and a long-term platform —without the pressure of bringing a book.
You’ll handle sophisticated rent regulation and landlord-tenant matters for institutional owners and operators, with regular exposure to administrative agencies and New York Supreme Court.
This is not a volume housing court role and not a book-or-die position.
What You’ll Work On
• Litigating administrative law matters before DHCR, OATH, NYC Commission on Human Rights, NYS Division of Human Rights, and New York Supreme Court
• Defending complex claims involving rent overcharge, succession, harassment, discrimination, and deregulation
• Drafting Article 78 petitions, agency submissions, and motion practice
• Advising on Rent Stabilization Law, Rent Stabilization Code, and Rent and Eviction Regulations
• Conducting rent regulatory and administrative due diligence
• Collaborating with senior attorneys on strategic litigation and advisory matters
• Contributing to thought leadership and client-facing publications (no sales pressure)
What We’re Looking For
• Meaningful experience in rent regulation, DHCR practice, and administrative law
• Strong working knowledge of Rent Stabilization Law and Code
• Experience handling DHCR proceedings required
• Exposure to Supreme Court litigation or interest in expanding into it
• Ability to run matters independently while working collaboratively
• J.D. from an accredited U.S. law school
• Active NY Bar membership in good standing
• A portable book is welcome but not required
(Candidates slightly above or below the stated experience range are encouraged to apply.)
Why This Role
• Hybrid schedule with consistent flexibility
• Summer Fridays and additional remote weeks
• Comprehensive medical coverage with employer contribution
• Pre-tax commuter benefits
• 401(k) with generous employer match
• CLE support and ongoing development
• Collegial, high-performance environment with real mentorship
• Clear runway for growth within a respected real estate platform
