    About the Firm

    Our client is a sophisticated boutique litigation firm based in New York founded by former Big Law attorneys who were committed to building something different: a practice delivering high-caliber, client-centric work without sacrificing work/life balance.

    The firm represents sophisticated clients in complex matters across:

    • Crypto & Digital Asset Law
    • Commercial Litigation
    • Business Transactions

    This is an opportunity to do cutting-edge, high-level work in a collaborative, entrepreneurial environment.

    The Opportunity

    The firm is seeking a Litigation Associate with 4–7 years of experience to join its growing New York office. This role offers meaningful responsibility, direct client interaction, and hands-on litigation experience in complex matters. The firm does not impose a strict billable hour requirement. Instead, associates work toward a reasonable target of 1,500 hours annually, reinforcing the firm's commitment to balance and sustainability.

    Compensation is competitive and negotiable based on experience, with the opportunity to earn performance-based bonuses tied to individual contributions and overall firm profitability.

    • Handle all phases of litigation, including drafting pleadings
    • Conduct discovery and manage document review
    • Take and defend depositions
    • Draft and argue motions
    • Appear in court
    • Collaborate with partners on complex, high-stakes matters
    • Ensure compliance with case deadlines and reporting obligations

    Qualifications

    • J.D. from a Tier 1 law school
    • 4–7 years of experience handling sophisticated litigation matters
    • AmLaw 100 firm experience preferred
    • Active and in good standing with the New York State Bar
    • Excellent legal writing, analytical, and courtroom skills
    • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple deadlines

    Application Requirements:
