Associate, Bowery Legal

About Bowery Legal: At Bowery Legal, we combine big-firm Corporate and M&A experience with the focus and flexibility of a boutique practice. Our attorneys have trained at some of the most respected law firms in the world, including Latham & Watkins, Gunderson Dettmer, Skadden, Mayer Brown, Greenberg Traurig, and Baker McKenzie. We are highly-capable, Big Law-trained attorneys who have all decided that there must be a better (and more humane) way to practice law while still being exceptional in our craft. For attorneys out there that feel the same way, Bowery Legal is an oasis in the desert. About the Role: Bowery Legal is looking for a talented attorney with relevant in-house and/or law firm experience in transactional and corporate law. The associate will primarily be responsible for handling emerging companies and venture capital related matters including entity formation and setup, equity and debt financings, commercial contracts, corporate governance, “outside general counsel” responsibilities and other general corporate matters. The attorney will work closely with the Managing Partner and other business team members on a regular basis. What You’ll Do: Serve as outside general counsel to early-stage and growth companies: triage day-to-day legal questions, spot issues, and deliver practical, business-minded guidance. Form and structure new entities (DE C-corps/LLCs, holding/operating companies), draft founder docs (IP assignment, vesting, ROFR/Co-Sale), and set up cap tables (e.g., Carta) from day one. Lead venture financings end-to-end (pre-seed to Series B+): draft/negotiate SAFEs and convertible notes, NVCA equity rounds, term sheets, stock purchase agreements, investor rights/ROFR/Co-Sale, voting agreements, and ancillary closing deliverables. Manage debt transactions for venture-backed companies: review term sheets, negotiate loan and security agreements, warrants, intercreditor/subordination arrangements, and coordinate perfection/filings. Own closing execution: run diligence, build and track closing checklists, coordinate signatures, manage data rooms, and deliver clean, on-time closings. Draft, review, and negotiate commercial contracts (SaaS subscriptions, MSAs/SOWs, DPAs, NDAs, vendor and partnership agreements) with attention to data, IP, and risk allocation. Advise on corporate governance and compliance: board and stockholder consents, charter/bylaw updates, equity plan administration, 409A, insider matters, and ongoing minute-book hygiene. Proactively manage projects and client communications across time zones in a largely remote-first environment, balancing responsiveness with thoughtful, high-quality work. Required Experience: Strong academic credentials including a J.D. from a top law school. Membership in the New York state bar is required. 2+ years of experience with a top national law firm or in-house with a technology company. Strong project management, communication and analytical skills are a must, as are strong communications skills (oral and written). Ability to work independently but remain connected in a remote work environment is critical if the attorney works remotely from other team members.
