Remote corporate attorneys handle the legal work that keeps companies running and growing — drafting and negotiating commercial contracts, supporting financings and M&A, advising on corporate governance and entity matters, and counseling the business through transactions. As a transactional rather than courtroom practice, much of the work is document-driven and well suited to remote arrangements.
Remote corporate roles sit in both law firms and in-house legal teams across nearly every industry, ranging from commercial-contracts and general corporate work to deal-focused M&A and finance practices. Strong candidates combine sharp drafting and negotiation with commercial judgment. Most postings require a JD, active bar admission, and corporate or transactional experience. The roles below are updated daily and include only positions employers advertised as remote.
Yes — every role posted on this site was advertised as remote by the employer. That's our single inclusion criterion: if a position wasn't presented as remote, it doesn't get listed, so every corporate attorney role here is a remote-advertised one. Please note that while we do our best to keep listings accurate, employers occasionally make mistakes in their own postings, so in rare cases a role advertised as remote may turn out not to be — we always recommend confirming the arrangement directly with the employer before you apply.
Corporate attorneys draft and negotiate commercial agreements, support mergers, acquisitions, and financings, advise on corporate governance and entity formation, and counsel the business through transactions. The day-to-day depends on whether the role is general corporate, commercial contracts, or deal-focused.
'Corporate' is the broad practice covering a company's legal needs; 'transactional' describes the deal-and-contract style of work, as opposed to litigation; and 'M&A' is the specific subset focused on mergers and acquisitions. M&A and transactional roles are corporate roles with a narrower focus; listings usually specify.
Compensation varies by experience, firm versus in-house, and seniority, but remote corporate attorney roles in the US commonly range from around $120,000 to $250,000+ in base salary, often with bonus. Individual postings list compensation where the employer provides it.
It varies widely — from a few years of transactional experience for associate or commercial-counsel roles to a decade or more for senior in-house and deal-lead positions. Active bar admission is almost always required; check each listing.
Generally yes — transactional work is largely contract drafting, negotiation, and advising, much of which is done by document and video, which is why many corporate roles are offered remotely. Deal timelines can still bring intense periods regardless of location.
