A leading law firm is seeking a Staff Attorney to join its blue sky and securities compliance program, supporting the firm's investment funds and corporate practices. Working under the direction of the program lead, the attorney will prepare and manage federal and state securities filings for private offerings.

This position is well-suited to an attorney who enjoys detail-oriented, deadline-driven compliance work and wants to build deep subject-matter expertise in exempt offerings and multi-state securities regulation. Responsibilities include preparing and filing Form D notices under Regulation D, coordinating blue sky notice filings across state jurisdictions, conducting exemption analyses, and maintaining blue sky charts, filing calendars, and compliance trackers.

The attorney will also process Rule 701 filings as needed, liaise with state regulators and EDGAR filer support, monitor regulatory developments affecting exempt offerings, and help refine program checklists, templates, and procedures. There is opportunity to train and review the work of paralegals as the team grows, and to support senior attorneys on related corporate and securities matters.
