Litigation Associate
If you’re a litigation associate who enjoys real responsibility, real courtroom exposure, and a life outside the office , this one is worth a look!
I’m partnering with a well‑regarded New Jersey litigation firm that is building a team of smart, hands‑on attorneys who want to practice law and not live by a timesheet!
The Practice This is a general litigation role with variety and substance. Matters may include:
Contract and commercial disputes
Intellectual property disputes
Other business and civil litigation matters
Associates are not siloed. You’ll work directly with partners and gain exposure across cases from start to finish.
What You’ll Be Doing Drafting pleadings, motions, and briefs
Handling e‑filings (NJ; NY as applicable)
Managing and responding to discovery
Appearing in court and at conferences
Assisting with case strategy and trial preparation
This is not a “research‑only” role. If you want hands‑on experience, you’ll get it!
The Ideal Background 1–5 years of litigation experience
New Jersey Bar admission required
New York Bar admission preferred (not mandatory)
Strong writing skills and comfort juggling multiple matters
Someone who thrives in a collaborative, low‑ego environment
Why Candidates Are Drawn to This Firm No billable hour requirement
Collegial, supportive culture
Direct mentoring and partner access
Substantive work early in your career
A true lifestyle firm that values balance and sustainability
This is the kind of place attorneys stay because they’re treated like professionals.
Compensation $100,000–$140,000 , depending on experience
Competitive benefits package that includes dental, vision, medical and 401(k)
