The opportunity
Our real estate practice is busy and growing, and we are looking for a real estate law clerk who can take a file from the day it opens to the reporting letter. If you have run residential purchase, sale and refinance files in an Ontario firm and you are at home in Teraview and LDD, you already know what this job is.
You will work directly with the lawyers, with their support on the legal issues and the trust to run your files your way.
We are prepared to pay above market rate for the right person.
Who we are
Andary Carnevale Karry & Laba LLP is a full-service firm with offices in Kingsville and Windsor, formed from two long-standing Essex County practices: Karry & Laba, serving Kingsville and the county for more than 40 years, and Carnevale Law Office, founded in 1985.
Our lawyers practise real estate, corporate/commercial, wills and estates, family, civil litigation, employment and criminal law for businesses, professionals, families and individuals across Windsor–Essex. We are a small firm by design — close to our clients, close to each other, and practical about how we get things done.
What you'll be doing
- Running residential purchase, sale and refinance files from opening to reporting
- Title searches and sub-searches in Teraview, off-title and execution searches, and requisition letters and responses
- Preparing closing documents in LDD, statements of adjustments, land transfer tax and HST calculations, and mortgage documents
- Working with lenders — instructions, lender portals, title insurance orders and reporting
- Coordinating closing day: funds, registrations, undertakings and keys, in step with the other side, the clients and the agents
- Preparing reporting letters and closing out files
- Helping on commercial,
farm and vacant-land transactions, leases and refinancings as they come up
- Communicating with clients, real estate agents, lenders, other law firms and municipalities, and keeping files moving
What we're looking for
- Real estate clerk experience in an Ontario law firm — enough to run a residential file confidently on your own; we care about competence, not a number of years
- Exceptional organization skills are a must.
- Working knowledge of Teraview and LDD (or a similar closing platform), lender portals and title insurance ordering
- Comfortable with statements of adjustments, land transfer tax and HST, and the basics of trust accounting
- Experience with Microsoft Office
- Careful, organized and calm on a busy closing day, with explicit, friendly communication with clients and agents
- Discretion and a professional manner
- Law Clerk diploma or ILCO designation an asset; commercial or estates experience a bonus
Location, schedule and pay
Based in our Kingsville branch, with the option of working from our Windsor branch and some flexibility for remote work once you are settled in. Compensation will be above market rate for the right candidate and will reflect your experience and capabilities in other areas of law — we are happy to discuss it openly from the first conversation.
