What is your current level of experience in freelance work?
I’m looking for a detail-oriented paralegal or legal assistant to help coordinate the engagement of an attorney for a lease negotiation in New York City. I'm about to sign a high-value residential lease, but the building has introduced new complexities related to planned construction that will affect the apartment during the lease term. I need support in finding an attorney who can help negotiate reasonable terms around the construction, specifically ensuring it adheres to the stated timeline and includes appropriate limits on access, noise, and disruption. Your responsibilities: * Identify 3–5 qualified NYC-based real estate attorneys with experience in lease negotiations or tenant representation. * Help coordinate calls, meetings, or document sharing between us and the selected attorney. * Organize relevant documents (e.g., approval emails, lease drafts, marketing materials). * Assist with timeline and communication tracking. Ideal qualifications: * Experience assisting with legal service coordination, ideally in real estate. * Strong writing and research skills. * Comfortable handling sensitive documents and communication. * Proactive and able to work with minimal oversight. * U.S.-based or familiar with NYC leasing context. Timeline: Looking to initiate attorney outreach immediately and secure representation or support within the next 3–5 days.
