Law Students
I started working at R&E as a law clerk during my second year of law school. During my time here, I have had the pleasure of working directly with the attorneys on complex matters, including drafting lease documents and attending client meetings and negotiations. I started out working remotely, but the attorneys and staff at R&E always made sure I felt like part of the firm. The experience I have gained now beginning my third year so far has been invaluable in preparing me to begin working as an associate.

Attorneys
“R&E hired me nearly 15 years ago as a paralegal and process server immediately after I graduated from college. Two years later, I decided to become an attorney and enrolled at St. John’s University School of Law. While at St. John’s, I was given the opportunity to continue to work at R&E as a law clerk. After graduation, I gladly accepted the Firm’s offer to return as a litigation associate. I was promoted to Member a few years ago and now have the privilege of mentoring associates. I have experienced firsthand how R&E invests in both its legal team and professional staff.”

Non-Legal Staff
“Working at Rosenberg & Estis for 10+ years continues to be a highly rewarding experience. We may be the largest real estate-only firm in NYC, but I believe that the firm’s culture and family feel are what truly separates R&E from all other law firms. Personally, I thrive in a challenging, fast-paced environment, and the thing I enjoy the most about working at R&E is the variety of assignments. If you are a person who demonstrates initiative, thoughtfulness and hard work, you will not go unnoticed or unrewarded at R&E.”
– Kelly M. Mueller, Operations Manager
