Date Posted: 05 November 2026

Job Snapshot

Job Description

Tired of watching from the back of the room on the big cases? A national litigation team with a Denver presence wants a mid-level associate ready to take real pieces of high-stakes matters, from experts to trial.

The Opportunity

You'd defend major companies in complex product and commercial disputes, often with technical issues at the center. The group is small enough that you're known by name and large enough that the cases matter.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Sophisticated, high-exposure defense work with genuine trial exposure
  • Hands-on mentorship from senior trial lawyers
  • A technical or engineering background is a plus here, not a curiosity (but not required)

What You'll Do

  • Run discovery and motion practice on complex matters
  • Work with expert witnesses and help shape technical defenses
  • Prepare for and support trial

What You Bring

  • 3+ years of civil litigation experience
  • Strong legal writing
  • Admission in Colorado, or eligibility to obtain it

What the Firm Offers

  • Competitive salary plus bonus eligibility
  • Full medical, dental, vision and 401(k)
  • Paid parental and family leave

All applications are confidential
