Real Estate Closing & Legal Coordinator

Real Estate Closing & Legal Coordinator

Our client: Edwards Law, LLC — a boutique real estate, estate planning & probate practice in Buckhead 

Location: Buckhead, Atlanta, GA · Hybrid (in-office required) 

Compensation: $22.50–$25.50/hour, commensurate with experience 

Type: Part-time to start, growing to full-time

Maven HR Advisory Group is proud to be leading this search on behalf of Edwards Law, a boutique Buckhead firm known for precise, client-centered work across residential real estate closings, estate planning, and probate.

We're looking for an experienced Real Estate Closing & Legal Coordinator who thrives in a fast-paced closing practice and takes genuine pride in accurate, organized work. If you enjoy owning files from contract through closing — and you're the kind of professional who takes direction once and then runs with it — this role is built for you.

About the role: Real estate closings are the heart of this position. You'll coordinate transactions end to end: preparing and reviewing ALTA Settlement Statements, ordering payoffs and HOA letters, reviewing title commitments, coordinating lenders, and keeping every file organized and audit-ready. During seasonal lulls, you'll support estate planning and probate matters. This role frequently operates as the sole non-attorney in the office, so independence, initiative, and reliability are essential — and rewarded, with a clear path toward Lead Coordinator and management as the firm grows.

What we're looking for:

• 2+ years residential real estate closing experience
• Experience with Qualia or similar closing software
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office, Outlook, and Adobe Acrobat
• Comfort reviewing settlement statements and coordinating multiple files at once
• Strong written communication and exceptional attention to detail
• Preferred: Georgia Notary (or ability to obtain within 90 days), GAR contracts, title commitments, lender/HOA coordination, payoffs, ALTA statements, wire disbursement

The details: Hybrid and in-office by design — Monday through Friday, 9–5, on-site 2–3 days a week and on every closing day. This is not a remote role. The position begins part-time and grows toward full-time as the workload and your demonstrated reliability increase.

Our process: We believe in a fair, merit-based hiring process. Qualified applicants will complete a practical skills assessment designed to reflect the actual day-to-day work of the role — so your experience and ability speak for themselves.

How to apply — both steps are required:

1. Submit your application and resume here.
2. Email us with the subject line 'Real Estate Closing & Legal Coordinator — [Last Name]' and answer this in 3–5 sentences: 'Describe a specific time you caught an error or inconsistency before it became a problem. What exactly did you notice, and what did you do about it?'

We review every application personally. Both steps are required to be considered. 

Edwards Law is an equal opportunity employer.
