Your question is a tad confusing. Many firms have real estate practices, and they are hiring.

Are you asking about real estate boutiques? Can't help you there.

I guess by saying "real estate-focused" I had in mind firms like Fried Frank, Paul Hastings, Goulston & Storrs, etc that have a good percentage of their lawyers working on real estate matters. But real estate boutique employment leads would also be great.

Thanks!

Those firms are hiring, but its for their regular SA programs (and therefore if you didn't get them through OCI you probably won't get them now). If you're a 1L looking ahead, most of those firms don't hire you as a 2L specifically for a group, but you can focus your summer work and hopefully get placed there full-time when you graduate. At Paul Hastings for example, most summers interested in real estate work will split their time between two of real estate/corporate/litigation.
