Senior Counsel - Emerging Companies & M&A
About General Legal
General Legal is an AI-native law firm built to deliver high-quality corporate legal work faster and more predictably than traditional firms. We combine top-of-market, U.S.-barred attorneys with AI-native workflows to handle drafting, review, and negotiation end to end—without billable hours, bloated process, or junior handoffs.
We operate like a startup because we are one. That means modern tooling, outcome-based pricing, remote-friendly work, and a focus on building repeatable processes that scale. By using AI to handle the routine parts of legal work, we give our attorneys the space to focus on judgment and the issues that actually matter to clients.
We’re starting with commercial and emerging companies work for growing companies—and we’re looking for attorneys who want to do great work in a firm that’s rethinking how legal services get delivered.
The Role
We’re hiring an M&A and emerging companies attorney to run deals for our growing roster of startup clients—from pre-seed and later-stage rounds through acquisition and other exits. This is an execution-focused role. You’ll own matters start to finish, work directly with founders, investors, management teams, and acquirers, and use AI-native workflows to move faster and more consistently than you could at a traditional firm.
