At Nixon Peabody, we are committed to attracting talented individuals from a wide range of experiences and cultures, including individuals from a wide range of racial, ethnic, social, economic, religious, genders, and personal backgrounds. Therefore, we encourage talented individuals of all backgrounds and experiences to apply.

Our Community Development Finance practice is one of the largest of its kind in the nation, and among the foremost legal authorities in transactions involving tax credit financing and other community development programs – either individually or in combination with other incentives.

In accordance with applicable Federal and State laws, the anticipated annual salary range for this position is as follows.

  • Washington, DC: $215,00 to $300,000

In addition to a standard benefits package, this role may be eligible for additional contingent compensation based on an array of factors, including but not limited to: work performance, geographic location, work experience, education, and qualifications. Because such contingent compensation is not yet calculable or may be zero ($0) in some circumstances, the above-listed salary range is Nixon Peabody’s good faith estimate of the annual salary it reasonably expects to pay for the position at the time of this posting.


Our Community Development Finance Practice Group is seeking to hire an associate to join our Washington, DC office. Candidates local to other U.S. offices and fully remote will also be considered.

The ideal candidate will have one to five years of transactional experience involving New Markets Tax Credits and/or Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits. The candidate should have experience representing clients and lenders in commercial real estate finance transactions, including construction lending transactions. Strong fundamentals, including experience with title and survey review and loan document drafting preferred.

Qualified candidates will be motivated self-starters with strong academic credentials, superb judgment and communication skills, a commitment to exceptional client service, and will have the ability to thrive in a demanding work environment.
