Commercial Underwriting Counsel - Remote at First American

This remains a specialized role for a mid-level attorney with 5-7 years of title underwriting experience. You will be joining an established National Commercial Services team, focusing on high-stakes, multi-state commercial transactions. The ideal candidate has deep expertise in real estate law and the "analytical rigor" required to assess risk and authorize title insurance commitments. The position offers a strong annual salary range and the stability of a Fortune 100 "Best Places to Work" company. It is a fully remote role supporting the New York team, though it is open to candidates across a wide range of East Coast and Midwestern states. You’ll benefit from a comprehensive package including an employee stock purchase plan and a people-first culture. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Hold a J.D. and are admitted to practice law in good standing. * Have significant experience underwriting complex commercial real estate deals. * Navigate federal and state real estate regulations with ease. * Can negotiate and convey difficult risk-related information with tact and creative problem-solving.
