THE JOB
This is an in-office job we can not consider remote work. Initially the job can be full-time OR part-time (your choice). In either case. we are looking for a strategic and energetic attorney to be a valued executive and part of our team, as we grow and expand rapidly. We need a trusted attorney on staff.
You must be licensed in Washington State, be located in or near Seattle, and within easy driving distance to our office on Seattle's Capitol Hill. There is easy parking and handy transit. Our office is a few blocks from light-rail and we pay commuting costs.
We apologize but please do not apply if you are not licensed in Washington State as that is required.
THE WORK
You need not have extensive experience in all topics because many subjects will be infrequent but must have the ability to review, study and make recommendations as to how to proceed on some matters, then manage the matters.
The work includes general consultation with company and decision making with principals, mergers and acquisitions, review and drafting of business contracts and forms, contract enforcement, website policies, entity formation in various locations, guest collections and disputes, property owner disputes and negotiation, labor law.
Because lodging is a real estate and professional service , dispute resolution and litigation may be unavoidable on occasion. You would evaluate legal exposure and risk, and recommend the steps necessary to settle or pursue matters.
Usually matters are of small. Should litigation arise you would handle matters personally, unless they required special expertise. In that case you would manage outside counsel.
In the future, we may franchise or sell licenses for our business model so the job may require assistance in seeking out and collaborating with franchisor consultants or franchise attorneys to prepare offerings, memoranda and franchisor marketing.
The work would also include dealing with intellectual property and copyright enforcement of our IP assets.

To start, we expect to pay between $60,000 - $90,000 per year on a contractor basis (proportional if part-time), PLUS bonus options.
