Job description

The New York office of Loeb & Loeb's market-leading Art Law group is seeking a highly motivated associate with 6-7 years of experience to join our dynamic team. This is a unique opportunity for a transaction-driven attorney-ideally with a corporate background-who thrives on complex, high-value deal work and is eager to apply their skills in the fast-evolving global art market.
We represent a prestigious roster of clients, including ultra-high-net-worth collectors, top-tier galleries, and art-backed lenders, in sophisticated transactions often exceeding $100M. The work is technically challenging and rarely routine spanning the unique facets of the global art industry.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Draft, review, negotiate, and manage a wide range of transactional documents, including sale agreements, consignment agreements, auction agreements, loan agreements, deeds of gift, etc.
  • Provide nuanced legal analysis across intersecting areas such as tax, intellectual property, cultural property, customs, endangered species regulations, and AML/KYC compliance.

  • JD required
  • Admitted to the New York State Bar (active and in good standing)
  • 6-7 years of experience at a reputable law firm, with a focus on corporate or transactional law
  • Exceptional drafting, analytical, and organizational skills-with speed and precision under tight deadlines
  • A genuine passion for deal-making and a curiosity about the art world (prior art law experience is a plus, but not required)
  • Proven ability to manage multiple high-stakes matters simultaneously in a fast-paced environment
  • Team-oriented, with strong communication skills and a collaborative spirit

This role offers significant growth potential and direct mentorship from leading practitioners. While the practice demands excellence, it maintains a strong team culture.
If you love transactions, thrive on complexity, and are looking for a fresh, intellectually rich challenge in a globally recognized practice, we'd love to hear from you.This position's in-office requirement is 5 days per week, and after six months of employment, associates may work remotely on Fridays.
The expected salary range for this position is $285,000.00 - $325,000.00 annually (commensurate with experience). This range could fluctuate based on varying factors.
Interested candidates shouldsubmit their resume, law school transcript, and a cover letter explaining your interest in the role.
