Job Snapshot

Job Description

A well-established and growing law firm is seeking an experienced Of Counsel or Partner-level attorney to join its Construction Litigation practice. This is an excellent opportunity for a seasoned litigator looking to step into an active caseload, work alongside a respected practice leader, and play a key role in the continued growth of a thriving team.

The ideal candidate will be able to independently manage complex litigation matters from inception through resolution, including negotiations, mediations, settlements, and trial. You'll have the support of an experienced trial attorney while maintaining significant autonomy over your cases.

Practice Highlights

  • Represent clients in complex construction-related litigation matters.
  • Handle cases through all phases of litigation, including trial preparation and resolution.
  • Work with clients on a wide variety of commercial construction projects, including hospitals, stadiums, retail developments, shopping centers, multifamily housing, and other large-scale projects.
  • Opportunity to contribute to business development with origination incentives available.

What They're Looking For

  • Significant litigation experience, ideally with a background in construction law or complex commercial litigation.
  • Ability to independently manage an active caseload.
  • Strong courtroom, negotiation, and client relationship skills.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset with an interest in long-term growth.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive compensation commensurate with experience.
  • Comprehensive benefits package.
  • Origination incentives and opportunities for additional earning potential.

Work Environment

  • Hybrid flexibility with work-from-home options when needed.
  • Collaborative office culture that values in-person interaction to foster strong relationships with colleagues and clients.
  • Mid-sized firm offering an excellent balance of experienced leadership and talented associates.

This firm is actively hiring but remains committed to finding the right long-term addition to the team rather than simply filling an opening. If you're looking for a firm where you can take ownership of meaningful work, collaborate with highly regarded attorneys, and continue growing your practice, I'd love to have a confidential conversation.
