Work at Wisler Pearlstine! We are always seeking to add motivated individuals to our growing team. Our current opportunities are listed below:

1. Associate Attorney – Municipal Law (Blue Bell Office/Hybrid)

Wisler Pearlstine is seeking a motivated and dynamic associate attorney with 2-5 years’ experience in Municipal Law to join its fast-paced, growing office in Blue Bell, Montgomery County.

The ideal candidate will have experience representing municipal entities on a broad range of zoning, land development, real estate, and code enforcement matters, as well as on more day-to-day transactional matters such as contract review, ordinance and resolution drafting, and labor and employment issues. Litigation experience in any of the above areas is preferred, but not required.

In this position, the successful candidate will quickly have a significant amount of direct client interaction. As such, the ability to independently give clear, concise, and practical guidance in a timely manner is absolutely critical. A can-do attitude, with a sincere commitment to client service and strong follow-through skills are crucial to success in this role.

Strong performance in this role will lead to increasing levels of responsibility and client interaction. Hybrid and flexible work schedules are available and encouraged, with the understanding that the selected candidate will be required to independently prepare for, appear at, and represent clients at various court and administrative proceedings (i.e., zoning hearing board, planning commission, district and county court, municipal meetings, etc.), many of which take place in the evening.

While this position will primarily be a municipal law position, the successful candidate will also have the opportunity to build their own client base and diversify their practice in other areas within the firm, particularly within the school law department in the representation of public-school entities. While the firm anticipates hiring a full-time attorney to fill this position, part-time employment opportunities could be considered for the right candidate.
